Significant strikes only, as recorded by UFCStats, across the fighter's whole UFC career. Shares are raw counts — nothing here is modelled or smoothed. Accuracy is landed ÷ attempted and comes from the per-round tape, which covers slightly fewer fights than the totals do. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.

Want to compare two other fighters? The build-your-own head-to-head lets you stack any two fighters we hold data on side by side — tale of the tape, stat-by-stat and the FightIQ Metrics. What it can't show is a prediction: we only publish a call we can be held to on a booked bout, timestamped before the cage door closes. For the pure hypothetical — two ranked fighters who have never met — see the fantasy matchups, which do put a number on it and are labelled, on every page, as fights that are not booked and are never graded.
