Scouting Report: Alexa Grasso by LevPisarsky
Rarely throws this.Yes, often adding a leg kick to the end of her combinations, but which she pulls a little early, robbing it of even more power. Also chains body kicks to her combinations.
Grasso's boxing prowess is restricted to straight punches, which are technically solid and fast, if slightly lacking in power and often a bit telegraphed. To her credit, she throws them in bunches. Unfortunately, both her overhand right and left hook especially are poor punches with large technical defects.
Grasso would rather be at range striking, but she is no slouch in the clinch, and defends takedowns better there than at range thanks to some solid technique like framing the opponent's head or turning them around. She can also score with knees, which are fast and fairly technical, if lacking in power.Average; got an outside trip against Kim, pushed down Wood from a Thai plum, and created a wrestling scramble against Wood that she used to take the back with.
Good; scrambles and kicks off the cage well, and while she gives up her back when getting up. Is athletic enough to turn into the opponent often.Clearly improving in her last two fights, but already at least OK, using a nifty armbar attempt to reverse Barber and take her back, and most recently finishing Wood with a RNC, very nicely switching arms in the process.
Grasso's biggest improvement in recent fights has been her grappling. Defensively, she can be taken down, but is highly adept at getting back up. While she exposes her back a lot in doing so, she is athletic and good enough at scrambles to almost always get away with it. If she is stuck on the bottom, however, she is weak to ground-and-pound. However, her offensive grappling has been getting a lot better.
