SLpM leads this profile at the 67th percentile of 264 lbs peers (3.37). That edge is modest, in the upper middle of the 264 lbs rollup.

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 9 264 lbs 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.
