Sakurai Tactics
Veteran"Hayato Sakurai is a seasoned grappler with a strong ground game and decent striking defense, but his striking offense is limited and he often relies on takedowns to control fights."

Veteran"Gunnar Nelson is a skilled grappler with a strong submission game and solid wrestling skills, but his striking is not his strong suit."
