Steve Garcia, better known as "Mean Machine", holds the #10 spot at featherweight, flying the flag for the United States — and rankings that high aren't given away, they're taken.
This is power striking with numbers behind it — 15 KO/TKO wins, 5.46 significant strikes landed per minute. Opponents don't get outpointed so much as dismantled. Add the southpaw stance, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The last fight went to Diego Lopes (KO/TKO (Punches) R2) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
