About FightingData

What We Do

FightingData.com is a UFC analytics platform built for people who want to understand matchups through data, not hot takes. Every time a fight card is announced, we generate head-to-head statistical breakdowns for every matchup on the card — striking, grappling, control, finishing tendencies — so you can form your own opinions grounded in real numbers.

We don't sell picks. We don't predict winners. We present the data clearly and let you draw your own conclusions.

How It Works

When you open a fighter comparison, you'll see two tables: career statistics and recent performance. Career stats cover every UFC fight a fighter has had since November 2000. Recent performance focuses on their most recent bouts to capture current form — because a fighter's last few outings often tell a different story than their career averages.

Edge indicators highlight which fighter has the statistical advantage in each category. These aren't predictions — they're a quick visual guide to where each fighter's strengths and vulnerabilities lie relative to their opponent.

We break analysis into three areas: striking (accuracy, volume, defense, knockdowns), grappling (takedown accuracy vs. opponent's takedown defense, submission attempts, control time), and finishing ability (KO rate, submission rate, and how fights typically end).

Our Data

All fight statistics are sourced from UFCStats.com, the official statistics provider for the UFC. We verify accuracy through automated validation checks and manual spot-checks against the source.
