TECHNICAL WAR ROOM

JASON MACKAY

TACTICAL BREAKDOWN
FIGHTER PEDIGREE
BACKGROUND:WRESTLING / MMA
STYLE:PRESSURE GRAPPLER
WEAPON:TAKEDOWN CHAINS
AGENT INTEL / SPECIAL

THE TANK PRINCIPLE: Mackay wins by making the fight ugly. He will push Mbuyazi against the cage and drain his energy. His ability to chain takedowns is his strongest asset in this matchup.

PHILANI MBUYAZI

TACTICAL BREAKDOWN
FIGHTER PEDIGREE
BACKGROUND:MMA / STRIKING
STYLE:EXPLOSIVE COUNTER
WEAPON:COUNTER LEAD HOOK
AGENT INTEL / SPECIAL

THE CIT FACTOR: Mbuyazi is likely better prepared for the specific wrestling of Mackay because he sees it every day in his gym. He will look for a short finish as Mackay enters for a shot.

AGENT 22 PREDICTION

WINNER: JASON MACKAY

Method: UNANIMOUS DECISION

This is a closely contested gym-affiliate clash. Mackay’s relentless wrestling and established "Tank" style pressure will likely be too much for Mbuyazi to handle over three rounds. While Mbuyazi is dangerous early, Mackay’s ability to control the cage will secure the victory.
