Andrew Sanchez vs Anthony Smith

Anthony Smith's 2-fight experience advantage (5 vs 3 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Anthony Smith for the expected result. Had Andrew Sanchez 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.

Anthony Smith gained a finish with a KO/TKO in round 3, earning finishing bonuses.

Andrew Sanchez controlled the striking through overwhelming volume (104 vs 58 total strikes), significant strike advantage (63 vs 49), superior accuracy (60.6% vs 49.0%). However, since Andrew Sanchez lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Anthony Smith's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.

Anthony Smith landed 1 knockdown followed by 6 ground strikes. Few ground strikes after a knockdown do not qualify for major ground ELO bonus.

As the winner, Anthony Smith capitalized on this activity level, while Andrew Sanchez's 127-day layoff didn't factor into the scoring since only winners receive activity bonuses.

Anthony Smith extended his 2-fight win streak, earning a momentum bonus. Andrew Sanchez is back at 0 with this loss.
