Andrey Pulyaev

Based on the provided metrics, Pulyaev operates at a moderate-to-active striking pace: 3.84 significant strikes landed per minute (SLpM) against 3.14 absorbed per minute (SApM). His listed significant strike defense is 55%, which indicates he avoids a meaningful portion of incoming attempts, though he still absorbs over three significant strikes per minute in this sample. The record shows one finish in four fights, a KO/TKO win in Round 2, while his three losses include two unanimous decisions and one Round 1 submission. From those outcomes, an evidence-based read is that his UFC results have leaned toward longer fights when he is not winning by stoppage, with two losses reaching the judges. A careful inference—without overreaching beyond the sample—is that his finishing upside has appeared more clearly in striking than in grappling, as his career summary shows zero submission wins. Grappling numbers in the snapshot are low-volume offensively (0.29 takedowns average; 0 submissions average). Defensively, a 64% takedown defense suggests some ability to stay upright, but the recent submission loss shows that ground danger has still materialized in competition. Overall, the limited four-fight sample points to a primarily striking-led profile with mixed results across both early and late phases of fights.
