Scouting report

Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani “Mufasa” is a 27-year-old Switch welterweight out of USA, camped at Cobra Team MMA. The tape read: submission hunter. Career mark 11-2-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 5 by submission, 6 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (73).

What works. Durability is the standout at 79 (B+). Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean. Ground game B on 2.79 TD/15 and 1.86 sub attempts. Striking defense C+ at 58% / 2.93 SApM. Counter punching C; punching agility B (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C+ on 74% 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 (50, C). 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 Lebosnoyani 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

70 B

Competent offensive grappling — enough volume and threat to change where the fight is scored.

  • 2.79 takedowns / 15 at 30% accuracy
  • 1.86 submission attempts / 15 · 5 career sub wins

Striking defense

67 C+

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

  • 58% striking defense · 2.93 SApM
  • 0 KO/TKO losses in 2 defeats

Counter punching

50 C

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

  • 63% accuracy on 4.77 SLpM
  • 0.22 knockdowns / 15 · 0 KO/TKO wins

Timing & reaction

61 C+

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

  • Str def 58% · TD def 74% — the two read-and-react rates
  • 2.93 shots absorbed / min (lower = sees it earlier)

Punching agility

68 B

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

  • 4.77 SLpM at 63% — output with cleanliness
  • Throws without paying full retail: 2.93 SApM

Takedown reaction

65 C+

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

  • 74% takedown defense — the live reaction to level changes
  • 0 submission losses (once the fight hits the mat)

Durability

79 B+

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

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