"Tactical wildcard matchup — Both fighters bring unique tools to the cage. Adaptability and game planning will be key."

Shimizu Tactics

Journeyman

"Shunichi Shimizu's unorthodox style and low-volume striking make him a difficult opponent to prepare for, but his grappling skills are a major concern."

Horiguchi Tactics

Veteran

"Kyoji Horiguchi is a highly experienced and well-rounded fighter with a strong record, but his statistics don't reveal a clear specialty."
