Jared Gordon vs Joaquim Silva

Both fighters entered with identical experience levels (4 fights each). On this fight, close to zero experience-based adjustments were applied.

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.

Joaquim Silva gained a finish with a KO/TKO in round 3, earning finishing bonuses.

Jared Gordon controlled the striking through superior volume (149 vs 121 total strikes), significant strike advantage (116 vs 95), superior accuracy (59.8% vs 49.7%).
