John Howard

John Howard, fighting under the nickname "Doomsday," carries a 24-13 professional record as an Orthodox stance welterweight standing 5'7" with a 72-inch reach. Howard's fighting style reflects a balanced but defensive approach, landing 2.15 strikes per minute at 50% accuracy while absorbing 3.08 strikes per minute and defending 51% of incoming strikes.

His grappling output averages 2.70 takedown attempts per 15 minutes with 49% accuracy and 53% takedown defense, complemented by a submission average of 0.4 per 15 minutes, indicating occasional submission threats. Recent results show mixed performance: Howard secured a split-decision victory over Cathal Pendres in July 2015 and a unanimous decision win against Siyar Bahadurzada in December 2013, but suffered notable losses to Lorenz Larkin via first-round knockout in January 2015 and a split decision against Brian Ebersole in September 2014.

Earlier in his career, Howard demonstrated finishing ability with a first-round TKO of Daniel Roberts in 2010, though he also lost decisions to established competitors like Thiago Alves and Matt Brown. Howard's recent record of 4-4 over his last eight fights suggests he remains competitive at the welterweight level despite inconsistency.
