Style profile
Percentile against the whole roster for some metrics — this division has too few profiled fighters · the dashed ring is average · outward is always better
Tap a metric to hide or show it — three is the minimum.
The numbers behind it
Rates are per 15 minutes of fight time, adjusted for the quality of
what the opponent usually allows. Defence and accuracy figures are percentages. A wider ±
means fewer rounds of evidence, and on the chart it is the whisker along that axis.
