Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
Hmm. I wish fightmetric would publish their scores and findings for all of the fights that they took these numbers for. They only have a fraction of fights from the UFC posted on their blog in a viewable format.

Uhh, no. It goes to show that intelligence and nuance are needed to understand statistics. Jon Fitch has landed the most strikes, but it goes to show that just landing some sort of strike is not meaningful.

Which is also why Fightmetric tallies Significant Strikes.

Yep and that's why Jon Fitch isn't on there.

True that, gotta admitt though, :? as to why A.S. ain't on that list. He holds the highest Striking % in the UFC. (or at least he did last time I was aware)

Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
Yes, let us once again ignore something significant that Jon Fitch has done because he isn't a fan favorite; all the while admiring the work of fighters likes St. Pierre, and others who's stats are also listed from the same source. :lol:

I'm not ignoring his accomplishments, HELL, I thought he won his last fight. I also don't mind his style of fighting, he's just doing what he's good at. If anything people should be complaining about his opponents inability to neutralize his game, but I guess people can only complain about BJs' gas tank for so long
Also was just trying to clarify, that Stats need to be interpeted, not just looked at.

Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
Stats can be used to prove anything that is even remotely true.
Funny Fitch has the most strikes landed and yet its coming up on 5 years since he has got a KO.
Ahh well he knows he is boring, we all know he is boring, but at least he is now paying for his boring style. Had he had any finishing skills he would of put BJ away but he didn't so he quite fairly got a draw and now I am fairly sure he will have another fight before he gets a shot.
Also there are decisions and decisions, Fitch (57% of wins by Dec) has a lower decision % than Frankie Edgar (62% win by Dec). So decisioning is not really the issue its just intent and style.
People like watching Frankie fight, people just want to see Fitch get beaten up. Its funny how hated he is without doing anything to really be the bad guy.
Also I'd like to see significant strikes/thrown strikes or significant strikes/landed strikes.
Was good to see Tim Silvia getting a mention in significant strikes landed.

Kind of surprising that the 3 heavyweights are the top at strikes per minute. Maybe because their fights don't tend to last as long????

I noticed that too, would have thought it would certainly be the lighter quicker guys taking home that award.

Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
If the Diaz brothers landed more of their 300 shots a round they'd take this one with ease.

Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
when you almost never finish a fight you will rack up strikes.. so the stats are misleading at first glance

My comments weren't directed at any specific person. Moreso just a generalized statement after rteading several comments. Simply put, if it were GSP, Hughes, or even Pyle, not nearly as many people would be trying to minimize the accomplishment.

Probably because he just lands less strikes. You'd expect the number of significant strikes to be inversely related to weight because a significant strike at HW will be more likely to end the fight than one at LW. AS is basically too powerful/too technical to land that many significant strikes without ending it. GSP is the perfect guy to lead that stat because his power seems to be just below TKO level. Watch the Fitch fight, half of his total significant strikes probably come from that fight alone.

Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
those stats dont lie fitch has landed all those shots and never hurt anybody another fact in the more than 100 facts that Jon Fitch is the king of Lay and pray and those pillow punches are more for the ref to avoid that he stop lay and pray in fights.
talking about Jon Fitch i read in this days an article very interesting that put 5 figthers that need SF and in that list no surprise Jon Fitch was there, mostly the article put that Dana White hates him and that crapp but in the end i believe this is true, the guy needs a change of scenario, a second chance yes he has winning all those fights but he just refuse to improve and has show us whats wrong in the scoring system in MMA. Also i know that people put me as a fitch hater, yes i dont like his way of figthing but that doesnt change the fact that the guy has alot of talent, he show me alot in the penn fight a great sub defense, his wrestling is not in doubt but is so sad that all that talent he just refuse to improve his game and he is so wrong about trust in the judge everytime since he knows the stuff in the scoring system and the problems that has that alredy prove of that was when he put after the penn fight that he was sure he won the fight and he score the fight the first round 10-9 for him and the others two 10-8 thats shows us that everytime he step in the ring he is looking at the decision alredy he knows the lay and pray moves got alot of points. even his corner knew in that fight the first two rounds was for penn but he got that fight 20-17 after two rounds for him, well that is just another fact on his lay and prays tactics like this stats.

Re: Jon Fitch Has Landed More Strikes Than Any Other UFC Fig
I like how this all goes back to Fitch not doing any damage. And for throwing that amount of strikes, I can see why not all of them are significant strikes. Not everyone can try and land a KO shot with every punch. If they did, then most fighters would be gassed by midway through the second round. And as far as Fitch not doing any damage during the Penn fight, please. If you watch the fight, his takedown in the third was set up by a wonderful strike that turned BJ's head sideways. Also, Mr. Penn's face looked a bit beat up after the fight was over as well. I don't remember his face looking that way after either of his fights with Frankie Edgar.
