Fight Breakdowns That Actually Break Things Down

Anyone can tell you who won. We explain why they won, how they won, and what it means for their next five fights. Our technical analysis goes beyond "good striking" to examine footwork, cage craft, and the mental chess match that separates champions from gatekeepers.

04

Prospect Scouting Before the Hype Train

We identify rising stars while they're still fighting in smaller promotions. By the time they hit the UFC, Universe members already know their strengths, weaknesses, and exactly why they'll succeed or fail at the highest level.
