Career

Every UFC fight, at every weight (170 lb, 155 lb, Catch Weight). Red is a dominant win (85 or more), blush any other win, grey a loss or draw. Ratings are kept weight by weight, in the other tabs; they do not compare across divisions. Opposition here is each opponent’s standing at their weight going in, as a percentile of everyone rated there that year.
