Robert Ruchala

Overview Robert Ruchala's best statistical trait is the one that kept both of his UFC fights from ending early: takedown defense far better than the UFC average. "Faker," a switch-stance featherweight from Nowy Sącz, Poland, is 0-2 in the UFC and 11-3-0 across all promotions. Both UFC losses went the distance. The question is how many more chances he gets to turn that into a win.

UFC Career Ruchala debuted at UFC Fight Night: Imavov vs Borralho, dropping a unanimous decision to William Gomis after three full rounds. Seven months later, at UFC Fight Night: Moicano vs Duncan, he lost another unanimous decision, this time to Jose Delano.

No finishes against him, none for him. Two fights, two scorecards.

Fighting Style The takedown defense is the real strength, and it makes him hard to put on the mat. The rest of the profile is less kind. His striking output is around the UFC average, but he absorbs more than most and his defense is worse than average. His striking accuracy is far below it. He rarely shoots for takedowns himself and has almost no submission game to speak of, so he is neither a grappler nor an efficient striker.

Two fights is a small sample, and the career averages reflect only those.
