Why the model leans this way

McKinney 62 — the tape favors volume pressure striker

Terrance McKinney is the model side at 62.1% because the largest live edges sit where this fight is likely to be fought. Grappler historical edge: McKinney (ground 78) into Green (TD reaction 62). Open-stance look favors the southpaw / switch side slightly. Ground game is the clearest separator: McKinney 78 (B+) vs Green 40 (D). McKinney brings 3.3 TD/15 and 9 sub wins into Green's 80% takedown defense.

Path · Green

Green has to stuff the first takedown (62 TD-reaction), keep this standing, and hunt a pocket that grades 73 on defense. Wrestling is the death lane.

Path · McKinney

McKinney has to wrestle early, chain the second shot, and make Green defend the neck instead of throwing. That is the percentage path.

A one-score fight on the model. Any three-minute pocket explosion or a stuck takedown against the grain wipes a lot of this number.

Full read

Style and location. Wrestling entries, fence control, and mat time should decide the scorecards — or the finish. McKinney is built as: Volume pressure striker — suspect hips against the shot. Green is built as: Volume pressure striker. Fight IQ delta is -3 toward Green — that is composure, win-lane diversity, and whether they solve a second problem when the first look dies.

The edges that move the number. Ground game: McKinney 78 (B+) vs Green 40 (D). McKinney brings 3.3 TD/15 and 9 sub wins into Green's 80% takedown defense. Punching agility: McKinney 80 (B+) vs Green 67 (C+). Hand speed / output lean McKinney (6.5 SLpM at 59%). Takedown reaction: Green 62 (C+) vs McKinney 54 (C). When the shot comes, Green stuffs it at 80% — McKinney is at 72%.

The finish path leans the mat (44% submission). Once a takedown sticks, the neck becomes the whole fight. A one-score fight on the model. Any three-minute pocket explosion or a stuck takedown against the grain wipes a lot of this number. These trait marks are derived from FightMetric rates, career method shares, and loaded bout rows — reaction time and agility are proxies, not stopwatch numbers. The model folds the same scores into win probability, so a hole on this card is a hole in the percentage.
