Francisco Trinaldo vs King Green

Francisco Trinaldo's 9-fight experience advantage (20 vs 11 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Francisco Trinaldo for the expected result. Had King Green 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.

Francisco Trinaldo 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.

King Green controlled the striking through overwhelming volume (67 vs 36 total strikes), significant strike advantage (50 vs 31), superior accuracy (43.5% vs 25.4%). However, since King Green lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Francisco Trinaldo's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.
