Q:
Who has the edge in grappling between these two fighters?
I′ve been an amateur wrestler for a few years, and I remember a match where I faced a grappler who had incredible control on the ground. Despite my efforts to escape, he maintained top position and dominated the entire round. This got me wondering about the grappling skills of professional fighters. In a matchup between Fighter A, known for their wrestling background, and Fighter B, who has a solid Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu pedigree, who would have the edge in grappling? How do their styles complement or counter each other?

In a matchup like this, how much do you think the grappling style influences the outcome? Would Fighter A's wrestling base give them an advantage in takedowns and control, or could Fighter B's BJJ skills allow them to escape and potentially submit from their back? Also, how important is the fighter's experience in mixed martial arts when considering these grappling exchanges?
