Style Matchup

Grappler VS Striker

"Grappler vs Striker — The grappler needs to close distance and secure takedowns early. The striker must keep it on the feet."

Perez Tactics

Prospect

"Philip Perez's dominant grappling skills and perfect takedown accuracy make him a threat on the ground, but his limited striking experience leaves him vulnerable in a stand-up fight."

Gaethje Tactics

Veteran

"Justin Gaethje is a veteran striker with a high-volume and aggressive style, and is considered one of the most exciting fighters in the lightweight division."
