Carlos “Black Jag” Ulberg Analysis
Carlos Ulberg enters this fight boasting an outstanding 9-1-0 record, but his popularity goes beyond this statistics alone. At 6′ 4″ and weighing 205 lbs, his physical attributes are impressive, but what truly distinguishes Ulberg is his striking game; with an average 8.13 significant strikes per minute landing per minute and his accuracy standing at an impressive 62%; also, his defense rate stands at 52% as evidence of high activity as well as efficacy; 3.45 significant strikes are absorbed per minute with 52% defense rate against hits; not only activity is this man’s striking game impressive;
Ulberg’s style is built upon an orthodox stance, an approach he has refined over time with remarkable success. His average fight time of 5:25 indicates he may be more of a finisher capable of eliminating opponents without needing scorecards from judges to determine victory. Furthermore, he boasts an exceptional defensive grappling game; even with only 0.92 takedowns per 15 minutes averaged every 15 minutes on average (but 100% defense rate), making it hard for opponents to exploit any vulnerabilities in his ground game.
Da Woon “Sseda” Jung Analysis
On the opposite side of the Octagon is Da Woon Jung with a 15-4-1 record and standing 6’4″ and weighing 205 lbs – comparable physical attributes to Ulberg. What separates Jung from Ulberg however are his superior grappling and takedown skills: an average 2.10 takedowns per 15 minutes at 50% accuracy with an 80% takedown defense rating which suggests his safety from potential opponents taking him down.
Jung isn’t quite as impressive when it comes to striking statistics; his average of 3.39 significant strikes per minute and 42% accuracy rate are less impressive compared to Ulberg. Meanwhile, his defense rate remains at 52% which makes up for any deficits in striking capabilities.
Jung has an average fight time of 9:11, which may indicate better cardio and durability or perhaps a measured approach that relies on his strategic game plan being implemented over multiple rounds. With such an extended average fight time and grappling prowess at his disposal, he may want to use this ground battle format as an opportunity to use his strengths more fully.
