Statistics-wise, Frank \u201cThe Crank\u201d Camacho\u2019s chances of winning over Matt \u201cThe Steamrolla\u201d Frevola in next week\u2019s UFC Fight Night 173 are higher if the duel will finish quickly.<\/p>\n
In the tale of the tape between the two MMA fighters, Camacho\u2019s winning percentage in bouts decided via KO\/TKO is 72% (16 wins) compared to Frevola\u2019s measly 13% (out of his eight victories, he recorded just one off TKO\/KO). While the 30-year-old is not known for going for the kill early, Frevola\u2019s percentage in matches won via either submission or decision is better than Camacho\u2019s. The New York native has a winning percentage of 37 via submission and 50 off decision, while Camacho\u2019s numbers read at both 14%.<\/p>\n
A standup fight would also favor the Marianas warrior, as he averaged 6.68 significant strikes per minute compared to Frevola\u2019s 3.19. Camacho\u2019s strikes accuracy, as expected, is better than his opponent, 46%-39%.<\/p>\n
If the collision between Camacho and Frevola goes down to the canvas, Frevola\u2019s grappling skills will be very useful. Frevola, who holds a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, averaged 3.30 takedowns (per 15 minutes), while Camacho only had 1.18. The Longo & Weidman MMA standout also had a better number defending a takedown with his 75% against Camacho\u2019s 72%.<\/p>\n

Frevola has the slight edge in the leg reach at 40 compared to Camacho\u2019s 38. The 5\u201910\u201d Camacho and 5\u20199\u201d Frevola both have an orthodox fighting stance.<\/p>\n
The 31-year old Camacho and Frevola will slug it out in a lightweight class on June 20 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada. Camacho will be gunning for his 23rd win in 31 fights, while Frevola will be eyeing his ninth victory in 11 matches.<\/p>\n
