| Total UFC Fights | 33 | 5 |
| Experience Gap | 28 | -28 |
| Experience ELO | 1 111 | 1 052 |
| ELO Change | +32 | -32 |
Andrei Arlovski's 28-fight experience advantage (33 vs 5 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Andrei Arlovski for the expected result. Had Tanner Boser pulled off the upset, his experience disadvantage would have delivered a modest upset bonus.

| Title Fight ? | No | No |
| Title Fight ELO | 1 084 | 1 020 |
| ELO Change | +19 | -19 |
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.

Tanner Boser controlled the striking through overwhelming volume (68 vs 34 total strikes), significant strike advantage (68 vs 34), superior accuracy (57.1% vs 41.5%). However, since Tanner Boser lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Andrei Arlovski's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.
