What they do well

  • Durability

    Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win.

Where they leak

  • Takedown reaction

    A takedown magnet. Low TD defense plus submission losses — this is the hole a grappler builds a camp around.

  • Timing & reaction

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

  • Counter punching

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

Scouting report

Jamall Emmers “Pretty Boy” is a 37-year-old Orthodox featherweight out of USA, camped at Pinnacle MMA. The tape read: pocket striker — suspect hips against the shot, porous pocket. Career mark 22-8-0 — 3 by KO/TKO, 3 by submission, 16 by decision. Fight IQ grades C (58).

What works. Durability is the standout at 83 (B+). Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win. Ground game C on 2.59 TD/15 and 0.32 sub attempts. Striking defense D at 50% / 3.93 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction D on 0% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 6 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Takedown reaction is the soft spot (29, D). A takedown magnet. Low TD defense plus submission losses — this is the hole a grappler builds a camp around. Opponents who force wrestling and keep the fight on the fence 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.

Recent tape (6 bouts): W 5027356 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 2558526 (KO/TKO R1) · L 3821549 (KO/TKO R1) · W 4686735 (KO/TKO R1) · L Jenkins (Decision - Split R3). Form index positive over the last 5. 2 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.
