well same idea, each criteria / sub critera is socred on a round by round basis, not at the end of the fight.
You could land 100 power strikes in round 1, and if by an act of god the other fighter is still alive you could lose the fight if he lands 5 power shots in each of rounds 2-5, and you landed nothing.
Even though total power strikes were 100-20, you lost rounds 2-5, if all other factors were equal.
You can't just look at the fighters faces at the end of the fight and say Condit did more damage and should have won. If Condit does all that damage in the last round, and GSP opens up 4 cuts spread out over the first 4 rounds, he's going to win the effective striking category in the first 4 rounds.
Hopefully that explains my point better
