  • Fight IQ

    Predictable under stress. When the first look fails, the tape shows the same entry again.

Scouting report

Jim Miller “A-10” is a 43-year-old Southpaw lightweight out of USA, camped at Sussex County MMA. The tape read: submission hunter — southpaw. Career mark 39-19-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 22 by submission, 17 by decision. Fight IQ grades C (58).

What works. Durability is the standout at 76 (B). Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean. Ground game C+ on 1.49 TD/15 and 1.72 sub attempts. Striking defense C+ at 62% / 3.58 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C+ on 79% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 0 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Punching agility is the soft spot (40, D). Heavy or economical. Combinations are chosen, not sprayed — opponents can time the entries. Opponents who out-speed the first exchange and never stay on the centerline have historically been the ones who make this résumé leak. Losses lean decision more often than a highlight — the issue is usually control of minutes, not a glass jaw.

The book has no per-fight UFC rows for Miller yet. This scouting card is carried by career FightMetric rates and the win-method split — treat the reaction and agility marks as wider intervals.

Ground game

63 C+

Ground work is situational, not a finishing engine. Expect clinch entries more than a mat cycle.

  • 1.49 takedowns / 15 at 45% accuracy
  • 1.72 submission attempts / 15 · 22 career sub wins

Striking defense

63 C+

Eats more than a championship pocket should. High SApM or a porous guard will get taxed against power.

  • 62% striking defense · 3.58 SApM
  • 0 KO/TKO losses in 19 defeats

Counter punching

43 D

Limited counter threat. Opponents can miss without paying a finishing tax.

  • 49% accuracy on 2.92 SLpM
  • 0.28 knockdowns / 15 · 0 KO/TKO wins

Timing & reaction

59 C

Late on the read. High absorb or a leaking TD defense suggests the first move often belongs to the opponent.

  • Str def 62% · TD def 79% — the two read-and-react rates
  • 3.58 shots absorbed / min (lower = sees it earlier)

Punching agility

40 D

Heavy or economical. Combinations are chosen, not sprayed — opponents can time the entries.

  • 2.92 SLpM at 49% — output with cleanliness
  • Throws without paying full retail: 3.58 SApM

Takedown reaction

62 C+

Hips arrive late. A committed wrestler will get them down; the question is what happens next.

  • 79% takedown defense — the live reaction to level changes
  • 3 submission losses (once the fight hits the mat)

Durability

76 B

Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean.

  • 0 times finished by strikes in 19 losses
  • 17 decision wins — proof they last and still score
