What works. Ground game is the standout at 89 (A). Chain wrestling and submissions are a primary weapon. 6 tapouts and 5.3 TD/15 put opponents on the fence or the mat. Ground game A on 5.28 TD/15 and 1.06 sub attempts. Striking defense C+ at 66% / 4.33 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve).

Where it breaks. Counter punching is the soft spot (33, 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.
