SLpM leads this profile at the 90th percentile of Lightweight peers (5.26). The path in this sample runs through striking volume. CTRL / 15 is the quieter tool, at the 12th 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 382 Lightweight 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.
