FIGHT WINNER

Grant Dawson

67%

Grant Dawson previously defeated Joe Solecki by unanimous decision in June 2024, largely due to superior grappling and ground control. Since then, Dawson has maintained a more consistent and successful record, including a recent submission victory. Solecki has been on a losing streak, including another loss to a grappler, and has shown vulnerabilities that Dawson is well-equipped to exploit again. Dawson's wrestling and top control are likely to dictate the pace and outcome of this hypothetical rematch, leading to another decision victory. Solecki's retirement announcement in 2025 also suggests a potential lack of recent high-level training, further favoring Dawson in a hypothetical scenario. [3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 14]
