Abus Magomedov vs Caio Borralho

Caio Borralho's 2-fight experience advantage (5 vs 3 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Caio Borralho for the expected result. Had Abus Magomedov pulled off the upset, his experience disadvantage would have delivered a modest upset bonus.

This was not a title fight, so both fighters received standard ELO adjustments. However, since ELO is a relative system, victories over former champions can have an indirect impact, and Title Fight ELO can differ from Basic ELO.

Caio Borralho earned a clear Decision - Unanimous, receiving full decision bonuses for controlling the fight across all rounds. Of course, a finish would have yielded even greater rewards.

Caio Borralho controlled the striking exchanges with 70 vs 39 total strikes, 51 vs 38 significant strikes, 49.5% vs 35.5% accuracy, including 1 devastating knockdown. Caio Borralho capitalized on this striking dominance.

Caio Borralho landed 1 knockdown followed by 1 ground strike. Few ground strikes after a knockdown do not qualify for major ground ELO bonus.

Caio Borralho demonstrated standard activity with 190 days since his last fight, earning a small activity bonus for reasonable scheduling. As the winner, Caio Borralho capitalized on this activity level, while Abus Magomedov's 127-day layoff didn't factor into the scoring since only winners receive activity bonuses.

Caio Borralho continued building serious momentum with a 5-fight win streak, earning a strong bonus as streak bonuses escalate. Abus Magomedov's now at 0.

This category provides the foundation ELO scoring without bonuses, except for exceptional multiple division champions.
