Round by round
Every round the fight went, shaded by where the significant strikes actually landed — and the takedowns, control time and knockdowns beside them.
No round-by-round tape on file
UFCStats has no per-round record for this bout, so there is no timeline to draw. The result and the finish above are unaffected — this is a hole in the round-by-round tape, and we will not fill it in from the fight totals.

Career UFC takedown rates. Red corner left, blue corner right.
Makhmud Muradov
Gerald Meerschaert
Career UFC takedown rates exactly as UFCStats publishes them: takedowns landed per 15 minutes, completion rate, submission attempts per 15 minutes, and the share of takedowns tried on them that they stuffed. Attempts per 15 is the one derived figure — landed ÷ completion rate — and it is omitted wherever either input is missing. UFCStats writes 0% where no attempt was recorded at all, so a percentage of exactly zero reads “n/a” here rather than as a measured rate. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average. Rate bars run to the population’s 95th percentile (6.86 takedowns / 15m); a fighter above it pins the bar. Percentages are drawn on their own axis.

Makhmud Muradov opened at 67.8% and closed at 82.4% (+14.6pp), with Gerald Meerschaert moving the other way by the same amount — the two are one de-vigged pair, so they always sum to 100%. There is no line between those two points because nobody recorded one: we hold the open and the close for this bout, not the days in between.
