Not enough peers for a percentile.

Fewer than 8 255 lbs peers have 10 minutes on the rollup, so percentiles stay blank.

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 5 255 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.
