McCorry has the least amount of experience of anyone on the TUF 32 cast. He would benefit from more experience first but does have a lot of potential. He badly needs to work on his takedown defense and it’s going to hinder him in this competition.
Paddy at least has good submission defense but has a tendency to get his back taken. On the feet, he’s still raw but still dangerous. McCorry is good at using his range with kicks and can crash in at any time with his knees. His hands are still coming together but he at least throws good volume. At this point, he’s too green to win a show like this.
