Style Matchup

Sanda VS Striker

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

Salikhov Tactics

"A well-rounded veteran with a strong record, but inconsistent striking and grappling numbers make his base style difficult to determine."

Hightower Tactics

Prospect

"Richie Hightower is a high-volume striker with aggressive tendencies, but his grappling skills are still a work in progress."
