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."

Weidman Tactics

Veteran

"Chris Weidman is a veteran grappler with a strong wrestling background and a high submission average, but his striking defense is a concern."

Matthews Tactics

Veteran

"AJ Matthews is a well-rounded veteran with a strong striking game, but limited grappling skills, making him a formidable opponent in the stand-up department."
