What they do well

  • Durability

    Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win.

Where they leak

  • Takedown reaction

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

  • Ground game

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

  • Punching agility

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

Scouting report

Vitor Petrino is a 28-year-old Orthodox heavyweight out of Brazil, camped at CM System. The tape read: hybrid who can change levels — suspect hips against the shot. Career mark 14-2-0 — 5 by KO/TKO, 2 by submission, 7 by decision. Fight IQ grades C+ (67).

What works. Durability is the standout at 84 (A). Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win. Ground game C on 2.60 TD/15 and 0.72 sub attempts. Striking defense C+ at 62% / 3.47 SApM. Counter punching C+; punching agility C (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction D 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. Takedown reaction is the soft spot (48, D). A takedown magnet. Low TD defense plus submission losses — this is the hole a grappler builds a camp around. Opponents who force wrestling and keep the fight on the fence have historically been the ones who make this résumé leak. When Petrino 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 5239615 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4869702 (KO/TKO R3) · W 2223033 (Submission R1) · L 2594871 (KO/TKO R3) · L 2512976 (Submission R1). Form index positive over the last 5. 3 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.

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.

  • 2.60 takedowns / 15 at 46% accuracy
  • 0.72 submission attempts / 15 · 2 career sub wins

Striking defense

63 C+

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

  • 62% striking defense · 3.47 SApM
  • 0 KO/TKO losses in 2 defeats

Counter punching

61 C+

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

  • 54% accuracy on 3.24 SLpM
  • 0.52 knockdowns / 15 · 5 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 62% · TD def 75% — the two read-and-react rates
  • 3.47 shots absorbed / min (lower = sees it earlier)

Punching agility

55 C

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

  • 3.24 SLpM at 54% — output with cleanliness
  • Throws without paying full retail: 3.47 SApM

Takedown reaction

48 D

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

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

Durability

84 A

Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win.

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