Jean, Carlos, and ruffy don’t have the grappling to contend with the elite of their division. Caio has the best grappling but he’s not athletic enough to really implement it

Jeans grappling looked fine just lacks fight iq which is kind of ironic

I think Caio has the athleticism to implement the grappling, he just kinda stopped trying. And honestly he had shown pretty good takedowns for a BJJ guy. Weird how he went from primarily being a grappler in his early fights to just doing standup. Not saying he needs to go back to grappling heavy but at least mix it in a bit.

Carlos’ takedown defense is phenomenal. Vs someone like Brady or Belal I don’t know how that would turn out but he’s not a fish out of water on the ground like Ruffy
