WELL ROUNDED

Well rounded fighter with elite knockout power — 65% of wins are by ko/tko.

Closes distance and trades — most wins come from heavy hands inside the first two rounds.

// VULNERABILITY

Pressure boxers willing to wade into the pocket have found chins on offer; cardio drops in late rounds.
