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.

Hunter Azure controlled the striking through overwhelming volume (67 vs 32 total strikes), significant strike advantage (62 vs 29), superior accuracy (47.0% vs 29.3%).
