Where he stands
James Llontop is 1-3 across 4 fights on our tape. He's on a 3-fight losing run. Our rating has him at 1439 — it moves with every result and weights who he beat, so a win over a ranked opponent counts for far more than one over a debutant. A record on its own says very little in this sport — two fighters at 12-3 can have faced completely different opposition, which is exactly the gap the rating is built to close.
He's a volume striker
James lands 5.6 significant strikes a minute and absorbs 4.1. That differential is modest, which puts him in the large middle of the division rather than the top of it. His takedown defense sits at 55% — for a striker that's the number that decides whether he gets to fight his fight at all.
How the model reads him
James's number is a matchup output — rating against rating, then style against style, plus age and layoff — graded on the fight board like every other call. Our tape covers UFC and Contender Series bouts from 2015 on, and one punch can settle a fight the better fighter was winning. For James specifically, James has only 4 fights on our tape, so every rate here is built on very little.
The full method is on the fight board, and every published call is graded on the report card.
