Tapology introduces opposition level metric for UFC fighters, Strickland rated 74

Tapology has introduced a new feature displaying an opposition level rating for UFC fighters, calculated on a scale from 1 to 99. The metric is based on a special formula accounting for a fighter's last six UFC bouts, with fights in other organizations not included in the calculation. At UFC 328, Sean Strickland leads with a rating of 74, followed by Khamzat Chimaev at 69 and Alexander Volkov at 67. Joaquin Buckley and Sean Brady round out the top five with ratings of 55 and 54 respectively. On the lower end, Baysangur Susurkaev and Ozzy Diaz each have a rating of 4, the lowest on the card. The metric provides fans with a quantitative assessment of the quality of opposition each fighter has faced.
