tale of the tape = factsmetrics = our read

Not the Anthony Romero you were looking for? A second fighter of this name is in our source data: Anthony Romero (b. 1997).

FightIQ’s profile

Built from Anthony Romero’s own numbers — record, form, fighting style and standout rate. Not reported prose. Grappling-led all-rounder

Professional record withheld. We don’t publish a professional record for Anthony Romero: the official UFC results on file contradict the one we were given, so we publish none rather than a wrong one. The UFC record below is the part we can prove.
Current streak1 loss
Last 1 (UFC)L
DivisionFeatherweight
Height5' 5"
StanceSouthpaw

5' 5" southpaw grappling-led all-rounder campaigning at Featherweight. Best of Featherweights: completes 100% of his takedown attempts.

Every figure here is recomputed at build time from the official fight record and the striking and grappling numbers on this page — there is no stored snapshot to go out of date. If a number isn’t in the data, it isn’t in this profile.

Tale of the tape facts

The facts, plainly — vitals and record from public UFC statistics; nickname, nationality and camp from the public fighter register. A field we can't source stays “pending”; it never shows a fake value. Where a fighter was born and where they fight out of come from their Wikipedia entry; where we hold neither, the hometown shown is Sherdog’s.

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.

Rate bars run to the population’s 95th percentile (6.09 takedowns / 15m); a fighter above it pins the bar. Percentages are drawn on their own axis.

Career UFC takedown rates exactly as UFCStats publishes them: takedowns landed per 15 minutes, completion rate, submission attempts per 15 minutes, and the share of takedowns tried on them that they stuffed. Attempts per 15 is the one derived figure — landed ÷ completion rate — and it is omitted wherever either input is missing. UFCStats writes 0% where no attempt was recorded at all, so a percentage of exactly zero reads “n/a” here rather than as a measured rate. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.

Recent form

In the UFC: 0-1. Anthony Romero’s last 1 UFC bout, most recent first — the result in the cage, not our pick.

Straight off the official UFC fight record. Card names are left off on purpose: the only event labels in our data are derived, and we’d rather print nothing than print one that’s wrong.

Every date links to that bout’s own page. Card names come from the official event record; where the UFC ran two cards on one date, or that record has no row for it, the Event column is left empty rather than filled with a guess.
