Constantinos Philippou vs Riki Fukuda

Constantinos Philippou's 2-fight experience advantage (5 vs 3 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Constantinos Philippou for the expected result. Had Riki Fukuda 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.

Constantinos Philippou 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.

Riki Fukuda controlled the striking through superior accuracy (45.4% vs 25.9%). However, since Riki Fukuda lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Constantinos Philippou's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.

Constantinos Philippou did not secure a significant ground advantage against Riki Fukuda on the ground through positional advantages and pressure, with almost no grappling bonus.

Constantinos Philippou extended his 4-fight win streak, earning a momentum bonus. Riki Fukuda is back at 0 with this loss.
