Richie Miranda

Richie "El Machete" Miranda is a 29-year-old American southpaw with a professional record of 13-2-0 who competes in the lightweight division. Miranda operates as a volume striker, averaging 3.07 strikes landed per minute with 38% accuracy, though his defensive metrics reveal vulnerability—he absorbs 4.47 strikes per minute while maintaining only 43% strike defense.

His wrestling remains underdeveloped, with a takedown average of 1.00 per 15 minutes and a concerning 0% takedown defense rate, indicating he struggles when opponents attempt to bring the fight to the canvas. Miranda carries moderate finishing power with a KO score of 10.0 but has not developed submission threats, averaging 0.0 submissions per 15 minutes.

His cardio score of 55.4 suggests moderate conditioning. Most recently, Miranda suffered a unanimous decision loss to Manoel Sousa over three rounds on August 8, 2026, a setback that dropped his recent record to 0-1.

With a 13-2 overall record but recent momentum stalled, Miranda needs to address his defensive deficiencies and wrestling gaps to remain competitive at lightweight.
