Beltran Tactics

Journeyman

"Joey Beltran is a high-volume striker with a strong chin, but his grappling defense is a concern and his overall record is marred by losses to top opponents."

Starnes Tactics

Veteran

"Kalib Starnes is a veteran striker with solid skills, but his grappling game is a concern, particularly his takedown defense and vulnerability to submissions."
