the strongest measured patterns in his verified tape — nothing editorial, receipts on every line

when hitHe fires back at 18% of the strikes thrown at him within 2 seconds — 1.4× what his pace would produce by chance.Confidence interval [9%, 27%] · n = 66 opponent strikes
bursts33% of his output comes in bursts — 1.8× what his pace alone would produce. Statistically, that's within what his pace alone would produce.n = 39 strikes

pooled pace — read the trend, not single-round precision

events per minute by round
5.0/minR125 strikesR1 peak4.5/minR214 strikes

Alvarez's pace holds steady: 5.0 strikes a minute in round 1, 4.5 in round 2.

n = 39 strikes across 2 rounds

what he does when he gets hit, and how his output clusters — each measured against what his own pace would produce by chance

when he gets hit
18%of incoming strikes get an answer within 2s

When strikes come at Alvarez, he fires back within 2 seconds 18% of the time. That's 1.4× what his own pace would produce by chance.

standup-scoped, in-round hand-log events (single annotator; ~11–15% estimated strike undercount — every level is a floor)

response = this fighter's next strike within 2.0s of the opponent's strike (two-sided stream, single-opponent context)

lift = observed rate ÷ a circular-shift null that keeps this fighter's own pace and burst structure but scrambles timing vs the opponent

bursts
33%of his output arrives in bursts

33% of Alvarez's output comes in bursts — strikes less than 1 second apart. That's 1.8× what his own pace would produce by chance. Statistically, though, that's within what his pace alone would produce.

burst = inter-strike interval < 1.0s

lift = observed burst share ÷ a null that keeps this fighter's event COUNT but redistributes onsets uniformly over his active in-round time
