Gianni Vazquez

Gianni Vazquez, fighting out of Mexico with a 14-6-1 professional record, competes as an orthodox bantamweight standing 5'7" with a 71-inch reach. "Kriptonita" operates primarily as a submission-focused fighter, averaging 1.6 submission attempts per 15 minutes while landing just 1.71 strikes per minute at 23% accuracy—a stark disparity that reflects his grappling-first approach. However, his defensive metrics reveal significant vulnerabilities: he absorbs 3.91 strikes per minute while maintaining only 43% striking defense, though his 62% takedown defense suggests reasonable wrestling resistance despite zero takedown attempts in his career.

Recent performances have been troubling, with consecutive losses to Javid Basharat via unanimous decision in February 2026 and a first-round knockout loss to Miles Johns in August 2026, indicating struggles against both varied striking and explosive opponents. With a cardio score of 31.9 and KO score of 14.8, Vazquez's submission threat remains his primary asset, but his inability to control distance and limited offensive output have exposed him at the elite bantamweight level.

Vazquez needs a significant strategic adjustment and opponent selection to reverse his current trajectory.
