Caio Borralho vs Makhmud Muradov

Caio Borralho overcame a 2-fight experience disadvantage (3 vs 5 fights), earning a reward for beating the more seasoned veteran Makhmud Muradov.

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.

Makhmud Muradov controlled the striking through superior volume (76 vs 57 total strikes), solid significant strike edge (14 vs 19), superior accuracy (40.0% vs 59.4%). However, since Makhmud Muradov lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Caio Borralho's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.
