Nakao Tactics
Veteran"Jutaro Nakao is a seasoned veteran with a solid striking game, but his grappling skills are limited and often leave him vulnerable to takedowns."
MacDonald Tactics
Elite"Rory MacDonald is a highly skilled striker with a strong record, but his grappling numbers are a concern, suggesting he may struggle against top-level grapplers."
