Kelvin Gastelum vs Uriah Hall

Both fighters entered with identical experience levels (1 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.

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

Uriah Hall controlled the striking through significant strike advantage (44 vs 31), superior accuracy (57.1% vs 41.9%). However, since Uriah Hall lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Kelvin Gastelum's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.
