In his 15 victories, he has three knockouts and 12 submissions. Eight of these 15 battles have resulted in first round finishes.
"Marretinha" showcases a remarkable 38 percent striking accuracy and excels in takedown accuracy, boasting a perfect 100 percent success rate. He consistently delivers 6.08 significant strikes per minute while absorbing 4.80, granting him a slight edge in striking exchanges. However, defending more often would serve him well.
His defensive capabilities are quite dependable, with a 67 percent success rate in deflecting significant strikes and an impeccable 100 percent success rate in thwarting takedowns. On average, he attempts 4.80 takedowns per 15 minutes of fight time and has secured two submissions in his two UFC bouts.
Nicolas Dalby Betting Preview
Dalby has been successful in his last three battles and is looking to overcome a heavy challenge. His recent win was a unanimous decision against Muslim Salikhov back at UFC on ESPN 47 in June earlier this year.
He has plenty of wins to go around, with 22 of them consisting of six knockouts, four submissions, and 12 decisions. Three of his 22 triumphs have ended in the first round. He also has all four of his defeats coming by decision.
He maintains a striking accuracy of 42 percent, though his takedown accuracy stands at a modest 32 percent. His significant strike ratio is tight, as he delivers 3.93 significant strikes per minute while absorbing 3.39.
On the defensive side, he successfully avoids significant strikes 52 percent of the time and fends off takedowns at a rate of 63 percent. Additionally, he averages 1.18 takedowns and 0.10 submissions per 15 minutes of action.
