Molly McCann

"Meatball". That's what they call Molly McCann, and is part of the UFC women's strawweight division's deep end, fighting out of England — 22 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.

Volume is the weapon: 5.28 significant strikes a minute on 53% accuracy. Rounds get won on attrition — opponents drown in output long before the final bell.

He's coming off a loss to Alexia Thainara. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.

At 36, the window is what it is — which tends to make every remaining fight more honest, and more dangerous.
