Across every division
Division stats
The average fighter line for every UFC weight class — pace and finishing, striking, and grappling. Strikes are per minute, grappling and knockdowns per 15 minutes (switch to Totals for per-fight averages). Each column marks its best and worstdivision (for “absorbed” and “against” columns lower is better, so the colors flip).
