How these scores are calculated

Fight IQ = 40% striking-accuracy percentile + 30% striking-defense percentile + 30% takedown-defense percentile within the division.

Requires 3 UFC bouts, 15 measured minutes, at least 10 division peers, 100 strike attempts, 100 opponent strike attempts and 10 opponent takedown attempts.

Cardio = 100 × the median late/early significant-strike attempt rate ratio, capped at 100. Compare rounds 3+ with rounds 1–2 within each bout. Requires 3 eligible bouts with at least 60 late-round seconds each. 100 means maintained or higher late pace.

Fight IQ summarizes accuracy and defense; cardio summarizes retained pace. Style, opponents and grappling affect both. These scores do not measure intelligence, physical fitness or win probability.

Joselyne Edwards named backup for Harrison vs. Nunes title fight at UFC 334

Joselyne Edwards will weigh in as the backup fighter for the bantamweight championship bout between Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunes at UFC 334 on Nov. 12 at Madison Square Garden. The title fight co-headlines the card, which is topped by Ciryl Gane vs. Josh Hokit for the undisputed heavyweight belt. Edwards earned the role after winning five straight in the UFC since late 2024, with four finishes and a decision win over Norma Dumont. The Harrison-Nunes bout was originally set for January but was postponed after Harrison underwent neck surgery.
