KD / 15 leads this profile at the 95th percentile of Flyweight peers (0.85). The path in this sample runs through knockdown rate. CTRL / 15 is the quieter tool, at the 25th percentile.

SLpM is significant strikes landed per minute. KD/15 is knockdowns per 15 minutes. CTRL/15 is control time per 15 minutes. Each rate uses career totals when the rollup has no per-minute column. Peers are the 210 Flyweight fighters with at least 10 minutes on the career offense rollup. The roster has no active flag and no gender column, so everyone listed at this weight is included.
