Based on the available statistics, Bautista projects as a high-output striker with measured defense. He is listed at 5.3 significant strikes landed per minute (SLpM) while absorbing 3.98 (SApM), alongside 54% striking defense. Those numbers, taken at face value, suggest he tends to land more than he absorbs over time, though the snapshot does not break this down by opponent level or round-by-round splits. The record provided shows a meaningful grappling component. He averages 1.91 takedowns per 15 minutes and 0.8 submissions per 15 minutes. The recent-fight list includes multiple decision wins across three-round bouts, alongside submissions (including a Round 2 submission in 2026 and several Round 1 submissions earlier in the snapshot). A careful inference from that mix is that he can operate in longer fights without needing a finish, while still presenting credible submission threat when openings appear. Losses in the snapshot include a KO/TKO and a submission, which indicates he has been stopped, though not frequently across 15 fights. Overall, the supplied results point to a fighter comfortable mixing phases and often reaching the scorecards in recent years.
