The judges determined the outcome round by round using effective striking and grappling. Cumulative strike and takedown totals are useful context, but they do not independently establish which rounds a fighter won.

Fight Duration & Statistical Interpretation

The fight lasted 15:00 of active round time, ending at 5:00 of round 3. Rest periods between rounds are excluded.

These are full-fight totals. They do not establish the order of exchanges, individual round scores, corner instructions, or changes in pace. Significant strikes are a subset of total strikes, so the two measures should not be used interchangeably.
