Peak ratings
David Dvorak, the Czech flyweight who used to work as a gravedigger
David Dvorak grew up on a farm, played junior chess until seventeen and took a sports management degree at the University of Hradec Kralove in 2015. To pay for training he worked highway construction for three years and as a gravedigger for five, which is where the nickname Undertaker comes from. He began MMA in 2009 at the Valetudo club in Hradec Kralove and reached the big stage in 2020 as a short-notice signing, the fourth Czech fighter to do so.
What Dvorak's ratings say
Boxing. Solid at 80. He stopped Miroslav Kuban, Marco Manovali and Zaka Fatullazade by TKO in the Czech XFN promotion.
Kickboxing. Also 80. He spent six months in Thailand at Phuket Top Team and Tiger Muay Thai, among other camps abroad.
Wrestling. A middle number at 76. His wins over Jordan Espinosa and Bruno Gustavo da Silva were decisions rather than finishes.
BJJ. Rated 78, above his wrestling. He submitted Salambek Damaev and Arsen Taigibov with second-round rear-naked chokes in Czech promotions, and beat Juancamilo Ronderos with a first-round rear-naked choke in the big promotion.
Strength. His lowest number at 71. His wins in the big promotion came by decision except for the one submission, so size and power are not how he gets there.
Durability. Fine at 80. He lost his first pro fight to Filip Mack in 2010 and later won on the Czech regional scene.
Cardio. His signature quality. He took the 2020 debut on five weeks notice, replacing Su Mudaerji against Bruno Gustavo da Silva, and won on points after three full rounds.
Fight IQ. Solid at 80. He beat Jordan Espinosa by unanimous decision in 2020, and his coaches Patrik Kincl, Jan Marsalek and Lukas Chotenovsky have worked with him through the years.
Cardio is what he brings to the table
At 85, cardio is the top mark on his card. He took his 2020 debut on short notice and won on points after three rounds, then beat Espinosa on the scorecards in September that year. His losses in the big promotion to Matheus Nicolau, Manel Kape and Steve Erceg were all decisions that went the distance.
Not much force behind the shots: Strength
Strength is the low rating at 71. He is a technical flyweight whose finishes in the big promotion were limited, and most of his stoppages came earlier in his career against regional opponents. Against a strong wrestler who can drag him to the mat and hold him there, he has to win with position and pace, a plan that works for three rounds but leaves him exposed on the scorecards.
