Akiyama Tactics
Veteran"Yoshihiro Akiyama is a grappling specialist with a strong record, but his striking numbers are mediocre and he often relies on his submissions to finish fights."
Gorimbo Tactics
Contender"Themba Gorimbo is a grappling-heavy fighter with a strong takedown game and decent striking, making him a formidable contender in the 170lbs division."
