Style Matchup

Striker VS Unknown

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

Shirai Tactics

Journeyman

"Yuya Shirai is a streaky striker with impressive accuracy, but his extremely low-volume striking and lack of grappling skills limit his upside."

Gardner Tactics

Journeyman

"David Gardner is a relatively unknown fighter with limited striking skills and no grappling skills, making him a threat in the stand-up game."
