What they do well

  • Durability

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

  • Striking defense

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

  • Timing & reaction

    Average-plus reactions. Gets touched, but rarely frozen in place when the shot or the shot-to-takedown comes.

Where they leak

  • Counter punching

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

  • 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

Felipe Lima “Jungle Boy” is a 28-year-old Orthodox bantamweight out of Brazil, camped at Allstars Training Center. The tape read: hybrid who can change levels. Career mark 14-2-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 3 by submission, 11 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (69).

What works. Durability is the standout at 91 (A+). Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win. Ground game D on 2.18 TD/15 and 0.73 sub attempts. Striking defense B+ at 65% / 2.00 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility C (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C on 80% 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 (41, 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 Lima 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 5144008 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W 4010864 (Decision - Unanimous R3) · W Naimov (Submission R3) · W 4291016 (Decision - Unanimous R5) · W 3925492 (KO (Knee) R1). Form index positive over the last 5. 4 of those wins reached the championship minutes — cardio and late IQ are real.
