What they do well

  • Durability

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

Where they leak

  • Ground game

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

  • Counter punching

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

  • Punching agility

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

Scouting report

What works. Durability is the standout at 85 (A). Gets through fire. Rarely finished by strikes; the later minutes are still theirs to win. Ground game D on 0.00 TD/15 and 0.00 sub attempts.

Where it breaks. Ground game is the soft spot (14, D). Thin offensive ground game. Wins come standing; once taken down this fighter is hunting a stand-up, not a sweep chain. Opponents who force wrestling and keep the fight on the fence 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.

Durability

85 A

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