Matchup analysis
The 🪃 Counterpuncher archetype wins about 71% vs 🏃 Pusher across 599 matches in our dataset. That is a small stylistic lean for Ignacio Buse here.
Counterpuncher players often use elite bp conversion and strong return game to pressure the pusher's extreme retrieval. On Clay, that can swing with conditions.
