Fabiano Iha vs Phil Johns

Fabiano Iha's 4-fight experience advantage (5 vs 1 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Fabiano Iha for the expected result. Had Phil Johns 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.

Fabiano Iha earned an early finish with a Submission in round 1 at 1:40, gaining additional bonuses for the first-round submission.

Phil Johns controlled the striking through superior accuracy (66.7% vs 50.0%). However, since Phil Johns lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Fabiano Iha's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.

Fabiano Iha demonstrated excellent fighting frequency with 69 days since his last fight, earning a solid activity bonus for maintaining rhythm. As the winner, Fabiano Iha capitalized on this activity level, while Phil Johns's null-day layoff didn't factor into the scoring since only winners receive activity bonuses.

Fabiano Iha extended his 3-fight win streak, earning a momentum bonus. Phil Johns is back at 0 with this loss.

This category provides the foundation ELO scoring without bonuses, except for exceptional multiple division champions.
