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.

Where they leak

  • Counter punching

    This is a first-strike, pressure profile more than a counter. Wins come from owning the center, not waiting.

  • Ground game

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

Scouting report

Djorden Santos “Shakur” is a 29-year-old Orthodox middleweight out of Brazil, camped at American Top Team. The tape read: volume pressure striker. Career mark 11-3-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 4 by submission, 7 by decision. Fight IQ grades C+ (61).

What works. Durability is the standout at 82 (B+). Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win. Ground game D on 0.51 TD/15 and 0.00 sub attempts. Striking defense B at 55% / 2.28 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility C+ (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C on 83% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 0 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Counter punching is the soft spot (24, D). This is a first-strike, pressure profile more than a counter. Wins come from owning the center, not waiting. 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.

The book has no per-fight UFC rows for Santos yet. This scouting card is carried by career FightMetric rates and the win-method split — treat the reaction and agility marks as wider intervals.

  • 7 decision wins — proof they last and still score
