Hyun Gyu Lim vs Takenori Sato

Hyun Gyu Lim's 2-fight experience advantage (4 vs 2 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Hyun Gyu Lim for the expected result. Had Takenori Sato pulled off the upset, his experience disadvantage would have delivered a modest upset bonus.
