Jared Cannonier

Jared Cannonier holds an 18-9 professional record and competes as a switch-stance middleweight standing 5'11" with a 77-inch reach. Over his career, Cannonier has established himself as a volume striker with moderate output, landing 4.42 strikes per minute at 49% accuracy while absorbing 4.35 strikes per minute and defending 56% of incoming strikes.

His grappling remains limited, averaging just 0.54 takedowns per 15 minutes with 40% accuracy and a 64% takedown defense rate, with virtually no submission threat throughout his tenure. Cannonier has delivered several high-impact finishes in recent years, including a devastating first-round knockout of Anderson Silva in May 2019 and a second-round TKO of Jack Hermansson in September 2019, though he suffered a brutal first-round knockout loss to Dominick Reyes in May 2018.

More recently, he earned a unanimous decision victory over Marvin Vettori in June 2023 before suffering a fourth-round knockout loss to Nassourdine Imavov in June 2024, dropping his recent record to 5-3 over his last eight fights. Cannonier remains a dangerous striker capable of explosive finishes but faces mounting pressure to string together consistent wins at middleweight.
