strikingsolid grapplingdecent

Picked against, with the analyst crediting genuinely good striking but favoring the opponent's physical edge and better-rounded grappling.

Normally a bantamweight, moving up to featherweight for this fight, with only one loss on his record -- a close split decision on Contender Series. Very good, solid striker with real power, accuracy, and good range control, able to fight from either stance; his kicks are nasty and rated as his top standing tool. Grappling is just decent and mostly defensive -- can grapple offensively but rarely chooses to, preferring to strike. Decent initial takedown defense that can be worn down if an opponent chains attempts together, works to get back up but often gives up his back doing so, and genuinely struggles when stuck on his back.
