Kajan Johnson vs Rustam Khabilov

Rustam Khabilov's 4-fight experience advantage (11 vs 7 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Rustam Khabilov for the expected result. Had Kajan Johnson 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.

The controversial Decision - Split reflected a closely contested battle, with Rustam Khabilov receiving reduced bonuses due to the lack of clear domination.

Kajan Johnson controlled the striking through superior volume (57 vs 34 total strikes), significant strike advantage (44 vs 17), superior accuracy (35.8% vs 24.3%). However, since Kajan Johnson lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Rustam Khabilov's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.

Rustam Khabilov controlled Kajan Johnson on the ground with 3 vs 0 takedowns, 4:10 of control time, 4 ground strikes, earning substantial ground ELO bonuses.

Rustam Khabilov demonstrated extended layoff with 378 days since his last fight, earning reduced bonuses due to inactivity rust. As the winner, Rustam Khabilov capitalized on this activity level, while Kajan Johnson's 49-day layoff didn't factor into the scoring since only winners receive activity bonuses.

Rustam Khabilov continued building serious momentum with a 6-fight win streak, earning a strong bonus as streak bonuses escalate. Kajan Johnson's now at 0.

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