TECHNICAL WAR ROOM
KOHL LAREN
TACTICAL BREAKDOWNLaren needs to keep this on the feet and turn it into a dogfight. He should look to land heavy power shots and avoid the mat at all costs.
LUIS GOMEZ
TACTICAL BREAKDOWNGomez's clear advantage is the ground game. He should prioritize the clinch and look to drag Laren into a grappling war where his 5 submission wins come into play.
AGENT 22 PREDICTION
WINNER: LUIS GOMEZ
Method: SUBMISSION (R2)
Gomez's experience and superior ground game should be the deciding factor. Laren is game, but Gomez's ability to find finishes gives him the edge in this coin-flip matchup.
