Durability
Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win.
Takedown reaction
Can stuff the first shot. Chain wrestling and the second entry are the real test.
Striking defense
Serviceable pocket defense. Can be found, but rarely walks into the same shot twice.

Where it breaks. Ground game is the soft spot (20, D). Thin offensive ground game. Wins come standing; once taken down this fighter is hunting a stand-up, not a sweep chain. 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 Vera (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W Font (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4875505 (KO/TKO R1) · W 5235875 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4243871 (KO/TKO R4). Form index positive over the last 5. 5 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.
