What Happened

Arman Tsarukyan's 6-fight experience advantage (13 vs 7 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Arman Tsarukyan for the expected result. Had Mauricio Ruffy pulled off the upset, his experience disadvantage would have delivered a modest upset bonus.
