Career Stats, Accuracy: These metrics track a fighter’s total strikes or takedowns divided by the total number of attempts.
Career Stats, Avgs.: These career metrics add all the strikes and takedowns landed, or submissions attempted, in a fighter’s career and – like ERA in Baseball – present the average number the fighter would land in a regulation 15-minute fight. For example, the calculation for Strikes Landed Avg. is:
(Significant Strikes Landed ÷ Total Fight Time) * 15:00
Knockdowns: A knockdown is counted when a strike causes a fighter to drop to the ground because of debilitation rather than loss of balance alone, e.g., a trip or foot sweep.
Strikes: All striking statistics refer to the number of significant strikes. This number includes all strikes at distance and power strikes in the clinch and on the ground. It does not include short strikes in the clinch and on the ground.
Takedowns: A takedown is awarded when a fighter deliberately grapples his opponent to the ground and establishes an advantageous position for an appreciable amount of time.
Reversals: A reversal is scored when the bottom fighter actively moves to establish top position, without his opponent getting back to his feet in between.
Passes: A pass is scored for each incremental positional advancement on the ground, e.g., a move from side control to mount. The advancing fighter must establish the new position for an appreciable amount of time.
Submission Attempts: This reflects the number of actual submission holds applied. It does not count movements that only seek a submission, e.g., a fighter on bottom who swings his hips for an armbar but does not lock the arm and apply force.
