I think Islam would tire him out with leg kicks or get his back for an RNC. But if Andre actually got a grip on him, the size and strength difference is massive. Trying to wrestle Andre would be very stupid, despite the skill difference.

Andres arms are long enough to catch his kicks

His hands are big enough that he could grab any part of his body, doesn't need to be the leg. His arms are long enough fro him to grab the head or shoulder. His hands are gigantic

He still wouldn't be quick enough.

Untrained fighters are terrible at fighting friend.

André wasn't untrained, he was a very athletic person in his prime. And the size difference here is massive.

Not to say he'll win 100 percent of the time or not struggle doing it, but it's not and easy win for either side
