Prediction
There really isn’t much footage of Solecki to get a read on this fight as I would like. With that said, it’s known that Solecki is very well-versed on the mat with his BJJ. Wallace is also more so a wrestler/grappler, but he has been controlled and taken down by lesser guys. The pick is for Solecki to get it done by submission.
Next: Antonio Trocoli vs. Kenneth Bergh
