Bruh, y’all are tripping. Sekulic has done literally nothing other than three takedowns and did not a single thing with them.

Grand reminds me of a much much less athletic passive Galore Bofando, who i think, is the freakiest person I’ve i seen enter the cage. but grant isn’t aggressive.

Dwight Grant just like Abdul Razak Hassan will either KO you in the 1st or gas out and get out grappled or picked apart.
