Most of his fights were at FW but yes, he won most of them inside 2 rds, however, when we look at his UFC Career in isolation we see a different story.
At FW, where McG hasn't fought for the best part of 10 years he won most of his fights inside 2 rds, but for those of us who dont believe the world stopped in 2015 & that life has continued until the present day, McG has lost most of his fights & lost most of those inside 2 rounds.
From his 3 wins since 2015, 2 of them have been inside the distance, so you are correct in saying that 2 is more than 1.5.
However, of his 4 losses, all finishes by the way, in only one of them did he last more than 2 rds.
In his 7 UFC fights ahere he weighed more than 145 he has only been beyond 2 rds twice, hence my comment that McG lasts 2 rds, good or bad, as usual.

And what?
The result of the fight is still debated, hence it wasn't effective.
Nurmagomedov decked McG, does that make him a power puncher?
Styles makes fights n some fighters can land shots easier on some than others, it just so happens McG found Diaz easy to hit, for 2 rounds, until he gassed out, as usual, n spent the final rounds getting bullied.
Diaz took McGs best shots, walked through em n walked McG down, he took it, shook it n enforced his will on McG.

He's a big brawny powerful puncher at long range, even decks guys with his jab.
Nurmagedov can get to him n hurt him inside that range, his hooks are a bit tidier n his overhand right is under rated. Ferguson's inside fighting n dirty boxing needs some work but his elbow use makes up for some of it.
Its just biomechanics, Ferguson's power is at long range & most of the times he gets decked is when hes trying to punch on the inside, he needs to tidy himself up.
Nurmagomedov will be looking to clinch n dominate position as usual, then look to open up as his opponent fades, no magic in what he does, its A-B-C.
Ferguson has x factor tho. Kinda like Tyson Fury. Hes big, half crazy, battle proven n he doesn't really kno wat hes gonna do until THAT moment arrives.
Easily Ferguson can catch Nurmagedov with a fight ender on the approach. His timing is vital n hes been sparing for this one so hes prepared n aware his timing is essential.
I hope he gets it done. The tougher the battle the more it suits Tony, the Russian doesn't want it like that, hes safety first n when it comes to a proper war he will crumble.

Fury is enigmatic though.
Insult Fury, wound his pride & you have an unstoppable charging elephant on yer hands, like Cunningham, & Wilder got after their first fight.
Let Fury have things his own way n you get the goofy 270lb 6'9 giant who thinks he is a 5'9 middleweight copy of Willie Pep.
There's no such change or enigma with Strickland, he does the best he can with what he has got & he doesn't venture away from what gets him paid, namely his jab, his teep kick, his ability not to get KOd & his ability to push a tempo that makes other fighters slightly uncomfortable enough to second guess their cardio & allow him to dictate the pace n tempo of the fight.
As such he is what he is, a decent prelim fighter who got lucky, went on a fabricated run vs non title contenders (due to his ability to be "controversial" on social media & therefore sell advertisement space for the UFC) n ended up winning the title in a very close fight vs a Champ who was having the worst night or 2nd worst night of his MMA career.
Strickland is an anomaly, Fury is an enigma.
Big difference.
