Best cardio in the UFC: round 3 vs round 1 pace

What it measures. Round-3 significant landed pace (needs round-1 pace at least 2.0 significant/min) as % of round-1 pace (fights reaching a full round 3). Higher is better. Formula. Significant strikes landed per minute in full third rounds, as a percentage of the same fighter's round-1 pace in the same fights. Over 100% means the pace went up. Fighters need a real round-1 pace for the ratio to mean anything. Minimum sample. Career: at least 5 fights and 25 minutes of full third-round time. Last five: at least 3 fights and 15 minutes of full third-round time. The Sample column is the amount behind each figure (minutes of full third-round time). A fighter below the minimum is not ranked and does not appear here; the figure is still shown, greyed, on their own page. Order. The table follows the published rank, which for rate stats is computed from a confidence-adjusted score rather than the raw figure, so the values can sit slightly out of order. The value shown is always the raw figure. Last bout and Active. The date of the fighter's most recent fight in this data. Active means a bout in the last 18 months. Coverage. Every figure is built from UFC fights that have round-by-round data. Some older bouts do not, and are left out rather than estimated. Round-by-round stat. Needs round-by-round data, which is missing for some UFC bouts. Those fights are left out, not estimated. Check us.
