What they do well

  • Durability

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

Where they leak

  • Counter punching

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

  • Ground game

    Thin offensive ground game. Wins come standing; once taken down this fighter is hunting a stand-up, not a sweep chain.

Scouting report

Alberto Montes “The Promise” is a 32-year-old Orthodox featherweight out of Venezuela, camped at The Goat Shed. The tape read: pocket striker. Career mark 12-2-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 7 by submission, 5 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (72).

What works. Durability is the standout at 75 (B). Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean. Ground game C on 0.00 TD/15 and 6.77 sub attempts. Striking defense B at 57% / 2.76 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility C+ (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction B on 85% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 0 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Counter punching is the soft spot (45, D). Limited counter threat. Opponents can miss without paying a finishing tax. 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 Montes 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

53 C

Thin offensive ground game. Wins come standing; once taken down this fighter is hunting a stand-up, not a sweep chain.

  • 0.00 takedowns / 15 at 0% accuracy
  • 6.77 submission attempts / 15 · 7 career sub wins

Striking defense

69 B

Serviceable pocket defense. Can be found, but rarely walks into the same shot twice.

  • 57% striking defense · 2.76 SApM
  • 0 KO/TKO losses in 2 defeats

Counter punching

45 D

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

  • 63% accuracy on 5.26 SLpM
  • 0.10 knockdowns / 15 · 0 KO/TKO wins

Timing & reaction

65 C+

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

  • Str def 57% · TD def 85% — the two read-and-react rates
  • 2.76 shots absorbed / min (lower = sees it earlier)

Punching agility

67 C+

Enough snap to score and to threaten. Not a blur, but the volume is organized.

  • 5.26 SLpM at 63% — output with cleanliness
  • Throws without paying full retail: 2.76 SApM

Takedown reaction

69 B

Can stuff the first shot. Chain wrestling and the second entry are the real test.

  • 85% takedown defense — the live reaction to level changes
  • 0 submission losses (once the fight hits the mat)

Durability

75 B

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

  • 0 times finished by strikes in 2 losses
  • 5 decision wins — proof they last and still score
