What they do well

  • Punching agility

    Hands move. High clean output for the age band — combinations come in bursts, not long-arm pawing.

  • Durability

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

  • Striking defense

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

Where they leak

  • Ground game

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

  • Takedown reaction

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

  • Counter punching

    This is a first-strike, pressure profile more than a counter. Wins come from owning the center, not waiting.

Scouting report

Casey O'Neill “King” is a 28-year-old Orthodox women's flyweight out of Australia, camped at Xtreme Couture. The tape read: power striker — suspect hips against the shot. Career mark 11-2-0 — 5 by KO/TKO, 2 by submission, 4 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (69).

What works. Punching agility is the standout at 84 (A). Hands move. High clean output for the age band — combinations come in bursts, not long-arm pawing. Ground game D on 1.40 TD/15 and 0.70 sub attempts. Striking defense B at 52% / 1.84 SApM. Counter punching C; punching agility A (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction D on 79% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 6 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Ground game is the soft spot (41, 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. When O'Neill loses, it is usually a finish (0 KO, 1 sub) — composure under the first clean hurt is the live question.

Recent tape (6 bouts): W 4871203 (KO/TKO R1) · W 5110469 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · L 4227318 (Submission R2) · L Maia (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 2504943 (Decision - Split R3). Form index positive over the last 5. 2 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.
