Ryan Jensen vs Thales Leites

Thales Leites's 3-fight experience advantage (4 vs 1 fights) held true, but the algorithm limited the bonus to prevent over-rewarding Thales Leites for the expected result. Had Ryan Jensen 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.

Thales Leites earned an early finish with a Submission in round 1 at 3:47, gaining additional bonuses for the first-round submission.

Ryan Jensen controlled the striking through superior accuracy (42.3% vs 55.6%). However, since Ryan Jensen lost the overall fight, his striking superiority couldn't be converted into ELO bonuses. Thales Leites's positive striking ELO reflects the overall victory rather than striking dominance.

Thales Leites controlled Ryan Jensen on the ground with 3 vs 0 takedowns, 1:13 of control time, 1 ground strike, earning substantial ground ELO bonuses. The submission finish significantly amplified the grappling rewards.

Thales Leites demonstrated excellent fighting frequency with 63 days since his last fight, earning a solid activity bonus for maintaining rhythm. As the winner, Thales Leites capitalized on this activity level, while Ryan Jensen's null-day layoff didn't factor into the scoring since only winners receive activity bonuses.

Thales Leites extended his 3-fight win streak, earning a momentum bonus. Ryan Jensen is back at 0 with this loss.

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