AI-assisted editorial grounded in Fight Detective’s stored fight and ELO data.
The supplied results and per-fight outcomes point to a finish-oriented profile. Hooper’s career summary lists 9 wins made up of 5 submissions and 2 knockouts, with the remaining wins not fully aligned in the snapshot’s totals. In the recent fight log specifically, he has multiple submission wins, several of them in Round 1 (for example, Jordan Leavitt, Clay Guida, and Mitch Ramirez), suggesting that when his grappling sequences connect early, he can close quickly. At the same time, the recent history also shows volatility on the feet: three of his five recorded losses are by KO/TKO, and the two most recent losses before his latest win were both Round 1 KO/TKO stoppages (Lance Gibson Jr. and Alexander Hernandez). That pattern supports a careful inference of higher early-round risk, especially in fights that stay in striking exchanges. Statistically, Hooper is credited with 4.5 significant strikes landed per minute (SLpM) and 3.02 absorbed per minute (SApM), which indicates solid overall activity with less coming back at him on average. His grappling metrics (2.43 takedowns per 15 minutes and 2.1 submissions attempted per 15 minutes) align with a style that actively hunts ground transitions and finishes. Defensive numbers in the snapshot (39% striking defense, 55% takedown defense) imply he can be hit and can be taken down at meaningful rates, though outcomes depend heavily on opponent context that is not provided here.
