Nikita Krylov now holds the record for most strikes landed per minute!

[M Raid K]

For a while it used to be Joanna Jedrzejczyk, but after UFC 201 it's Nikita Krylov with 6.94 strikes landed per minute.

Obviously, other fighters in this list have maintained their high output for full 15 or 25 minutes whereas Krylov has never even been there, but it's still remarkable that he's throwing and landing that much for a 205+ lbs guy.

By the way, Krylov finds his place in Fightmetric's leaderboards in several other categories like Shortest average time (3rd behind Duffey and Rousey), Significant strike accuracy (tied with Anderson Silva for the 3rd) and Strike differential (3rd behind Joanna and Cain).

Collect some data from the fight metrix and produce it. there you go.
He had 15 significant strikes per min before Thiago fight, which was more than twice higher than that of Joanna Jedz.

They require minimum 5 UFC fights, so he's not on their list yet (and who knows what happens by the time he gets there)

True,

but his significant strike per min is more likely to go up than down.

Rumble/Teixiera loser vs Krylov makes sense. Krylov is raw, but he's violent and he brings it every fight. With how lacking LHW is, he's going to get thrown into the lion's den sooner rather than later.

 

[Kneepocalypse]

You could say his output is like that of a... Tommy gun...
