      Why Raina made this pick

      Bo Nickal is the more complete grappler here, and the model gives that skill set the deciding weight over 3 rounds.

      Max McEnelly's clearest path is forcing grappling exchanges and stealing rounds from top position - a live route, which is why confidence sits at 62%.

      Reach, stance (Southpaw vs Orthodox) and pace history all point to a finish around round 1.
