What they do well

  • Durability

    Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean.

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

Cameron Nelson is a 28-year-old -- welterweight out of Canada, camped at Renzo Gracie PEI. The tape read: hybrid who can change levels. Career mark 7-1-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 3 by submission, 4 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (69).

What works. Durability is the standout at 80 (B+). Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean. Ground game D on 0.00 TD/15 and 0.00 sub attempts. Striking defense C at 68% / 4.60 SApM. Counter punching D; punching agility D (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction B on 85% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 0 loaded UFC rows.

Where it breaks. Ground game is the soft spot (19, 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.

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

19 D

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

  • 0.00 takedowns / 15 at 0% accuracy

Counter punching

37 D

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

  • 0% accuracy on 0.00 SLpM
  • 0.10 knockdowns / 15 · 0 KO/TKO wins

Timing & reaction

59 C

Late on the read. High absorb or a leaking TD defense suggests the first move often belongs to the opponent.

  • Str def 68% · TD def 85% — the two read-and-react rates
  • 4.60 shots absorbed / min (lower = sees it earlier)

  • 0.00 SLpM at 0% — output with cleanliness
  • Throws without paying full retail: 4.60 SApM

Takedown reaction

69 B

Can stuff the first shot. Chain wrestling and the second entry are the real test.

  • 85% takedown defense — the live reaction to level changes
  • 0 submission losses (once the fight hits the mat)

Durability

80 B+

Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean.

  • 0 times finished by strikes in 1 losses
  • 4 decision wins — proof they last and still score
