Striking defense
Hard to hit clean. Low absorb rate and a quiet chin record — opponents have to work for every clean look.
Durability
Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean.
Timing & reaction
Average-plus reactions. Gets touched, but rarely frozen in place when the shot or the shot-to-takedown comes.
Counter punching
Limited counter threat. Opponents can miss without paying a finishing tax.
Takedown reaction
A takedown magnet. Low TD defense plus submission losses — this is the hole a grappler builds a camp around.

Oumar Sy is a 30-year-old Orthodox light heavyweight out of France, camped at American Top Team. The tape read: hybrid who can change levels — suspect hips against the shot. Career mark 12-2-0 — 2 by KO/TKO, 4 by submission, 6 by decision. Fight IQ grades C+ (68).
What works. Striking defense is the standout at 83 (B+). Hard to hit clean. Low absorb rate and a quiet chin record — opponents have to work for every clean look. Ground game D on 2.45 TD/15 and 0.35 sub attempts. Striking defense B+ at 66% / 1.93 SApM. Counter punching D; 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. Counter punching is the soft spot (47, 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. When Sy loses, it is usually a finish (0 KO, 1 sub) — composure under the first clean hurt is the live question.
Recent tape (6 bouts): L 3994033 (Submission R1) · W 4379328 (KO/TKO R1) · L Menifield (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4389252 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4410698 (Submission R1). Form index positive over the last 5. 1 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.
