Where it breaks. Ground game is the soft spot (39, 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 Pennington (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W Reed (KO/TKO R2) · W 3102702 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W Moura (Decision - Split R3) · L 3115931 (Decision - Unanimous R3). Form index positive over the last 5. 3 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.
Serviceable pocket defense. Can be found, but rarely walks into the same shot twice.
Limited counter threat. Opponents can miss without paying a finishing tax.
Late on the read. High absorb or a leaking TD defense suggests the first move often belongs to the opponent.
Enough snap to score and to threaten. Not a blur, but the volume is organized.
Hips arrive late. A committed wrestler will get them down; the question is what happens next.
Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win.
