When to Use
Use this MMA takedown calculator to analyze takedown success rates and defensive efficiency. Vital for wrestlers and grapplers structuring control strategies.
What the result tells you
Takedown accuracy shows how reliably a fighter gets the bout to the mat, the foundation of a grappling game plan. A high rate is valuable, but it is only part of the story, since takedown defence and control time decide whether the position is kept. A wrestler with great accuracy who gives the position straight back gains little from the takedown.
Benchmarks & Interpretation
Here is how typical results are categorized and interpreted:
| Value / Range | Rating | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Above 60% | Elite Grappler | Dominant wrestling. Executes takedowns at will and controls fight positioning. |
| 40% – 60% | Good Wrestler | Capable takedown game. Uses level changes and cage pressure to secure control. |
| Below 40% | Needs Work | Takedown entries are too predictable. Work on setting up shots with strike combinations. |
Pro Tips & Advice
Improve takedown success by hiding your level changes behind striking combinations, forcing opponents to raise their guards before you shoot.
