Durability
Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean.
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.
Punching agility
Heavy or economical. Combinations are chosen, not sprayed — opponents can time the entries.
Deiveson Figueiredo “Deus da Guerra” is a 38-year-old Orthodox bantamweight out of Brazil, camped at Team Figueiredo. The tape read: hybrid who can change levels — suspect hips against the shot, porous pocket. Career mark 25-7-1 — 6 by KO/TKO, 9 by submission, 10 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (69).
What works. Durability is the standout at 77 (B+). Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean. Ground game C on 1.61 TD/15 and 1.18 sub attempts. Striking defense D at 45% / 3.80 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction D on 54% 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 (28, 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): L Yadong (Submission R2) · L Nurmagomedov (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4339130 (Decision - Split R3) · L Sandhagen (KO/TKO R2) · L Yan (Decision - Unanimous R5). Form index negative over the last 5. 2 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.
Thin offensive ground game. Wins come standing; once taken down this fighter is hunting a stand-up, not a sweep chain.
