Sanda, Boxing VS Grappler

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

Sakara Tactics

"Alessio Sakara is a veteran grappler with a strong ground game and decent striking defense, but his striking offense is lacking and he often relies on takedowns to win fights."

Linhares Tactics

Veteran

"Lucio Linhares is a grappling specialist with a strong background in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, but his striking skills are underdeveloped."
