Let’s be honest: Every now and then it’s fun to get down into the nitty-gritty statistics and see if we can’t perform some MMAth. It helps us analyze future fights and make predictions based on previous history. Fans of all sports do it, so why can’t we? It can help us look for potential trends in a fighter as well. So, with thanks to Sherdog and FightMetric.com for the raw data, let’s examine one of the main card bouts of the upcoming UFC on FOX 8: Demetrious Johnson vs. John Moraga.
Moraga’s stats, unfortunately, are a little skewed in that FightMetric only has two of his bouts on record. That said, he has shown savvy with the guillotine choke, and that right there gives him a weapon to use against a strong wrestler like Johnson. Still, when all is said and done, I expect Demetrious Johnson to talk out of Seattle with his UFC Flyweight Title around his waist.
