Scouting report

Wes Schultz “Party Time” is a 30-year-old Orthodox middleweight out of USA, camped at Pura Vida BJJ. The tape read: hybrid who can change levels. Career mark 9-3-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 6 by submission, 3 by decision. Fight IQ grades C+ (65).

What works. Ground game is the standout at 69 (B). Competent offensive grappling — enough volume and threat to change where the fight is scored. Ground game B on 2.39 TD/15 and 3.59 sub attempts. Striking defense C at 62% / 3.58 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C+ on 75% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 6 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Counter punching is the soft spot (44, 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.

Recent tape (6 bouts): W 5344659 (Submission R3) · L 5292022 (KO/TKO R1) · W 5296254 (Submission R1) · W 4001868 (Submission (Guillotine) R1) · L 5211221 (KO/TKO R2). Form index positive over the last 5. 1 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.

Ground game

69 B

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

  • 2.39 takedowns / 15 at 21% accuracy
  • 3.59 submission attempts / 15 · 6 career sub wins

Striking defense

60 C

Eats more than a championship pocket should. High SApM or a porous guard will get taxed against power.

  • 62% striking defense · 3.58 SApM
  • 0 KO/TKO losses in 3 defeats

Counter punching

44 D

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

  • 55% accuracy on 2.91 SLpM
  • 0.10 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 62% · TD def 75% — the two read-and-react rates
  • 3.58 shots absorbed / min (lower = sees it earlier)

Punching agility

48 D

Heavy or economical. Combinations are chosen, not sprayed — opponents can time the entries.

  • 2.91 SLpM at 55% — output with cleanliness
  • Throws without paying full retail: 3.58 SApM

Takedown reaction

65 C+

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

  • 75% takedown defense — the live reaction to level changes
  • 0 submission losses (once the fight hits the mat)

Durability

67 C+

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

  • 0 times finished by strikes in 3 losses
  • 3 decision wins — proof they last and still score
