Key Analysis Points​

  1. Striking
    • Max Holloway: Known for his relentless pace, Holloway's high striking output and exceptional accuracy can be overwhelming. He maintains a range that forces his opponents to cover distance to engage. Holloway’s reach and height advantage, along with elite defensive movement, allow him to land combinations while avoiding counterattacks. His striking variety, including elbows, body shots, and combinations, is among the most diverse in the division.
    • Ilia Topuria: Topuria is a powerful striker with knockout potential in both hands. While his output is not as high as Holloway's, he has the ability to counter aggressively, making each strike dangerous. Topuria may look for overhand punches and hooks to close the distance and disrupt Holloway’s rhythm, but his lower reach and high risk of overextending could leave him vulnerable to Holloway’s range attacks.
  2. Grappling and Ground Control
    • Max Holloway: Holloway’s takedown defense has shown to be one of his strengths, nullifying attempts from several accomplished grapplers. Although not known for his offensive wrestling, his grappling defense has kept him on his feet, forcing opponents to engage in striking. In this matchup, Holloway will likely focus on maintaining distance, using his jab and movement to evade takedowns.
    • Ilia Topuria: Topuria is a solid grappler with a high submission threat, especially effective with strong positioning in top control. His takedown attempts could be crucial in breaking Holloway’s striking rhythm. If he secures takedowns, he may gain critical points and potentially threaten submissions, though Holloway's durability and cardio make it difficult to secure a finish.
  3. Cardio and Durability
    • Max Holloway: Holloway’s cardio is almost unmatched, and his capacity to maintain high output through all five rounds has been proven against elite opponents. His chin has also withstood considerable punishment, even in extended exchanges.
    • Ilia Topuria: While Topuria has solid cardio, he has yet to go a full five rounds in a competitive fight, especially against a volume striker like Holloway. His explosive style may face diminishing returns if he can't control Holloway early on, and his cardio could be tested heavily if the fight extends into the later rounds.
  4. Fight IQ and Strategy
    • Max Holloway: Holloway has shown incredible adaptability within fights, often changing pace or game plans to exploit opponents’ weaknesses. His approach to high-volume striking and his range control is likely to be a pivotal element in dealing with Topuria’s power and grappling.
    • Ilia Topuria: Topuria will likely aim to either finish Holloway early or implement a grappling-heavy approach, given Holloway's high volume and cardio advantage. However, his approach may need to adapt if Holloway’s output proves challenging to keep up with, especially if Topuria's gas tank starts to deplete.

Final Prediction and Rationale​

Prediction: Max Holloway by Decision (5th Round)
Confidence Level:
60-65%

This matchup leans toward Holloway due to his cardio, striking output, and overall adaptability. His experience with high-volume striking over five rounds may overwhelm Topuria, especially if the fight becomes a drawn-out battle. Holloway’s proven durability against power strikers and his exceptional ability to defend takedowns give him an edge to control the fight's rhythm and positioning.

Topuria’s path to victory would likely require early dominance through effective grappling or landing heavy strikes. However, if Holloway can avoid Topuria's power shots and maintain a high volume, he will likely secure a decision victory by consistently outpointing Topuria across the rounds.

  4. Cardio: (85/100)
    • Championship Round Experience: Miocic has shown solid cardio, but he has at times slowed down in later rounds against high-paced opponents. Jones may look to wear him down over time.

AttributeJon JonesStipe Miocic
Striking8885
Grappling9588
Fight IQ9786
Physicality9288
Reach Advantage84.5"80"
Cardio9085

Scoring Summary​

Jones's reach, versatility in striking, and superior grappling edge give him a definitive advantage on paper. Miocic’s best path to victory is to use his boxing and keep the fight in mid-to-close range, avoiding extended grappling exchanges. However, Jones’s diversity in attack, adaptability, and his ability to manage range effectively make it difficult for Miocic to impose his game plan consistently.

Final Prediction​

Jones’s overall fight IQ and his ability to neutralize his opponent's strengths make him the favorite. Expect him to utilize leg kicks, range control, and clinch work to wear Miocic down over the first two rounds, setting up opportunities for takedowns and control. Miocic may struggle to handle Jones’s reach and dynamic striking from distance. Jones is likely to secure a TKO finish by Round 3 through sustained ground-and-pound, overwhelming Miocic’s defenses and potentially exhausting him.

Comparative Analysis​

Striking​

  • Power and Accuracy: Asakura has a slight edge in striking power and accuracy, known for his explosive knockouts and precision. Pantoja is also a dangerous striker but relies more on aggression and volume than sheer power.

Physical Traits​

Summary: This flyweight championship bout between Alexandre Pantoja and Kai Asakura is a compelling matchup of styles. Asakura’s striking power and precision give him a chance to score a knockout, especially if he can keep the fight standing. However, Pantoja’s elite grappling, relentless pace, and ability to transition seamlessly between striking and grappling make him the favorite. Asakura’s takedown defense will be tested early and often, and if Pantoja can secure a takedown, his submission skills are likely to lead to a finish in the third round. Pantoja’s championship experience and durability should allow him to withstand Asakura’s striking while implementing his game plan effectively.





MAIN EVENT 2

Fight Analysis: Alexandre Pantoja (c) vs. Kai Asakura - Flyweight

Alexandre Pantoja (Champion)

  • Strengths: Pantoja is an elite flyweight with world-class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, strong grappling, and underrated striking. His aggressive style allows him to dictate the pace of fights, both on the feet and on the ground. Pantoja’s scrambling ability and submission game make him a constant threat in grappling exchanges. His striking features powerful punches and effective combinations, often setting up takedowns or ground control.
  • Weaknesses: Pantoja’s aggressive style sometimes leaves him vulnerable to absorbing damage, particularly from technical counter-strikers. While his cardio is strong, he can occasionally slow down in the later rounds of high-paced fights.
  • Physical Attributes: Pantoja stands 5'5" with a reach of 67 inches. His compact build and physical strength make him difficult to control in grappling exchanges.

Kai Asakura

  • Strengths: Asakura is a dynamic and explosive striker with knockout power. He uses his unorthodox striking style and excellent timing to land significant shots, making him a dangerous opponent in the stand-up department. Asakura’s footwork and ability to create angles allow him to keep opponents guessing. While his grappling is serviceable, he prefers to keep fights standing and use his striking to overwhelm opponents.
  • Weaknesses: Asakura’s grappling, particularly his defensive wrestling and submission defense, has been a vulnerability in past fights. Against high-level grapplers like Pantoja, his ability to stay off the ground and return to his feet will be critical.
  • Physical Attributes: Asakura is 5'8" with a reach of 69 inches, giving him a height and reach advantage over Pantoja. This helps him maintain range in striking exchanges.

  • Prediction Confidence: 75%

  • Round: 3
  • Method of Victory: Submission

Fight Dynamics

  • Pantoja’s Path to Victory: Pantoja will aim to pressure Asakura early, use his striking to set up takedowns, and work towards a submission on the ground. His ability to control the fight with his grappling will be key to neutralizing Asakura’s striking.
  • Asakura’s Path to Victory: Asakura will need to maintain distance, use his reach advantage, and land powerful counter-strikes to keep Pantoja from closing the distance. If Asakura can avoid the grappling exchanges, he could outstrike Pantoja and potentially score a knockout.

Summary

While Asakura’s striking makes him a dangerous opponent, Pantoja’s grappling edge and ability to mix in takedowns give him a clear path to victory. The prediction is that Pantoja will secure a submission in the third round, capitalizing on Asakura’s weaknesses in grappling exchanges.

Asakura’s best chance lies in landing a clean knockout shot early or frustrating Pantoja with range management and high-output striking. However, Pantoja’s championship-level experience and grappling superiority make him the favorite in this matchup.

Fight Analysis: Shavkat Rakhmonov vs. Ian Machado Garry - 5 Rounds (Welterweight)


Shavkat Rakhmonov

  • Strengths: Rakhmonov is a highly versatile and dangerous fighter with a perfect finishing rate. He combines elite grappling, submission skills, and striking precision to overwhelm his opponents. His grappling transitions are smooth, and his ability to mix striking and takedowns makes him a complete fighter. He is also durable, with excellent composure under pressure.
  • Weaknesses: While Rakhmonov is well-rounded, he sometimes absorbs unnecessary damage when closing the distance. Against a technical striker like Garry, this could expose him to counters. His cardio, though solid, hasn’t been extensively tested in a five-round war.
  • Physical Attributes: Rakhmonov stands 6'1" with a reach of 77 inches. His height and reach enable him to manage distance well in striking exchanges and set up takedowns effectively.

Ian Machado Garry

  • Strengths: Garry is a precise and technical striker with excellent footwork and range management. His striking arsenal includes clean combinations, effective kicks, and an ability to maintain composure in high-pressure situations. Garry’s defensive skills and counter-striking are among his strongest assets, making him difficult to hit cleanly.
  • Weaknesses: Garry’s grappling, while improving, isn’t at the elite level of someone like Rakhmonov. If taken down or pressured in clinch exchanges, he could struggle against Rakhmonov’s relentless grappling. Additionally, Garry’s power is effective but not overwhelming, often relying on accumulation rather than one-shot finishes.
  • Physical Attributes: Garry is 6'3" with a reach of 74 inches. His height and reach allow him to fight effectively at range, but his shorter reach compared to Rakhmonov could make it difficult to keep the fight at his preferred distance.

  • Prediction Confidence: 70%
  • Predicted Winner: Shavkat Rakhmonov
  • Round: 4
  • Method of Victory: Submission

Additional Considerations

  • Cardio in a Five-Round Fight: Both fighters have solid cardio, but Rakhmonov’s ability to maintain a grappling-heavy pace over five rounds could test Garry’s endurance.
  • Striking vs. Grappling: Garry’s striking is sharper, but Rakhmonov’s grappling is a clear advantage. If Rakhmonov can drag the fight to the mat, Garry will face significant challenges.

Summary

Rakhmonov’s well-rounded skill set, grappling advantage, and ability to finish fights make him the favorite in this matchup. The prediction is that Rakhmonov will secure a submission in the fourth round after wearing Garry down with relentless grappling pressure.
Garry’s path to victory lies in keeping the fight standing and using his technical striking to outpoint Rakhmonov over five rounds or land a significant strike to finish the fight. However, Rakhmonov’s ability to mix striking and grappling effectively gives him the edge in this highly competitive fight.

  • Gym: Jackson Wink MMA Academy
  • Style: Well-rounded, elite fight IQ, exceptional clinch game, wrestling, and striking diversity.
Metrics Analysis
  1. Striking (85/100):
    Jones uses an unorthodox striking arsenal, including oblique kicks, spinning elbows, and long-range jabs. While not a power puncher, he excels in control and volume.
  2. Grappling (95/100):
    Elite wrestler with superb clinch control, takedowns, and devastating ground-and-pound.
  3. Physical Traits (90/100):
    Incredible reach advantage and durability, though his heavyweight cardio remains somewhat untested in a long fight.
  4. Fight IQ (98/100):
    Arguably his strongest asset. Jones excels at reading opponents and adapting mid-fight.
  5. Training Partners (80/100):
    Training at Jackson Wink offers high-level partners, though the camp lacks modern heavyweights for direct preparation.
Total Score: 448/500

Tom Aspinall

  • Record: 14-3
  • Height: 6'5"
  • Reach: 78"
  • Stance: Orthodox
  • Gym: Team Kaobon
  • Style: Explosive striking, quick movement, and high-level grappling for a heavyweight.
Metrics Analysis
  1. Striking (90/100):
    Aspinall is one of the most fluid and fast heavyweights, with excellent boxing fundamentals and knockout power.
  2. Grappling (88/100):
    Skilled Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner with solid takedown defense and submission skills.
  3. Physical Traits (85/100):
    Strong, fast, and athletic for the division but lacks Jones's unique reach and frame.
  4. Fight IQ (85/100):
    Aspinall is improving rapidly, but he hasn't faced an opponent as cerebral as Jones.
  5. Training Partners (85/100):
    Working with high-level grapplers and strikers in Europe but without the depth of Jones's experience.
Total Score: 438/500

Fight Breakdown and Prediction

  1. Striking:
    • Jones will use his reach advantage and diverse techniques to keep Aspinall at bay, using oblique kicks and sidekicks to disrupt Aspinall's rhythm.
    • Aspinall's speed and boxing could pose problems early, but Jones's ability to control distance may neutralize these advantages.
  2. Grappling:
    • Aspinall is skilled, but Jones's wrestling pedigree and clinch dominance give him the edge in grappling exchanges.
    • If the fight goes to the ground, Jones's top control and elbows are devastating.
  3. Physical Factors:
    • Jones's durability and composure under pressure are proven, while Aspinall's explosiveness makes him dangerous early. However, if the fight drags into later rounds, Jones has the cardio edge.
  4. Fight IQ and Experience:
    • Jones has consistently outclassed elite opponents with his adaptability. Aspinall, while talented, lacks experience against someone as seasoned and versatile as Jones.

Prediction Summary

  • Winner: Jon Jones
  • Method: Submission (rear-naked choke)
  • Round: 3
  • Confidence: 75%

Rationale:

While Aspinall's speed and athleticism pose a significant challenge, Jon Jones's reach, fight IQ, and grappling superiority should allow him to control the fight and secure a finish. Aspinall's best chance lies in an early blitz, but Jones's defensive acumen makes this unlikely. If Aspinall doesn't capitalize early, Jones will systematically wear him down and finish him in the mid-rounds.
 
@TSaL broke Even on the last card, came out 4 bucks ahead.

I’m wondering if there’s some merit to waiting til the last minute to ask the ai to pick winners so that it has opportunity to scour and consider the last minute breakdown articles people write and post
 
Hey @TSaL not sure if you're still improving this thing but I just put Colby/Buckley through, and it seems to be out of date on their records. It says Buckley is 16 - 6, but he's 20 - 6 now. Any chance this can be updated to current times please? Will likely change the predictions on a lot of these fights.

Main Card Predictions

  1. Colby Covington vs. Joaquin Buckley (Welterweight Main Event)
    • Prediction: Colby Covington via unanimous decision (Round 5).
    • Reasoning: Covington's elite cardio, pressure-heavy wrestling, and striking volume edge out Buckley's explosiveness and power. Covington is likely to neutralize Buckley's stand-up with constant takedowns and control.
  2. Cub Swanson vs. Billy Quarantillo (Featherweight)
    • Prediction: Billy Quarantillo via TKO (Round 3).
    • Reasoning: Swanson is a veteran with strong technique, but Quarantillo’s pace, durability, and striking volume could wear him down in the later rounds.
  3. Manel Kape vs. Bruno Silva (Flyweight)
    • Prediction: Manel Kape via KO (Round 2).
    • Reasoning: Kape’s knockout power and timing give him the advantage over Silva’s well-rounded game, especially on the feet.
  4. Vitor Petrino vs. Dustin Jacoby (Light Heavyweight)
    • Prediction: Dustin Jacoby via decision.
    • Reasoning: Jacoby’s kickboxing experience and ability to manage range can outpoint Petrino, despite the latter’s heavy hands.
  5. Adrian Yanez vs. Daniel Marcos (Bantamweight)
    • Prediction: Adrian Yanez via KO (Round 3).
    • Reasoning: Yanez’s sharp boxing and counter-striking should overwhelm the undefeated Marcos, though it could be competitive early.

Preliminary Card Predictions

  1. Navajo Stirling vs. George Tokkos (Light Heavyweight)
    • Prediction: George Tokkos via submission (Round 1).
    • Reasoning: Tokkos' grappling expertise makes him dangerous in the opening exchanges, particularly against a less experienced Stirling.
  2. Michael Johnson vs. Ottman Azaitar (Lightweight)
    • Prediction: Michael Johnson via decision.
    • Reasoning: Johnson’s speed and striking should allow him to stay ahead of Azaitar, though his defensive lapses remain a concern.
  3. Joel Alvarez vs. Drakkar Klose (Lightweight)
    • Prediction: Joel Alvarez via submission (Round 2).
    • Reasoning: Alvarez’s size, submission skills, and recent performances give him a solid edge against the gritty but less dynamic Klose.
  4. Sean Woodson vs. Fernando Padilla (Featherweight)
    • Prediction: Sean Woodson via decision.
    • Reasoning: Woodson’s height, reach, and volume striking should control the fight against Padilla’s power.
  5. Miles Johns vs. Felipe Lima (Bantamweight)
    • Prediction: Felipe Lima via decision.
    • Reasoning: Lima’s youth and aggressive striking could prove too much for the veteran Johns, despite his durability.
  6. Miranda Maverick vs. Jamey-Lyn Horth (Women’s Flyweight)
    • Prediction: Miranda Maverick via submission (Round 2).
    • Reasoning: Maverick’s well-rounded skill set and grappling advantage make her a favorite in this matchup.
  7. Davey Grant vs. Ramon Taveras (Bantamweight)
    • Prediction: Davey Grant via TKO (Round 3).
    • Reasoning: Grant’s unorthodox striking and experience should overwhelm Taveras late in the fight.

    • Prediction: Josefine Knutsson via decision.

I could try and improve it but just not willing to pay to do it. This MMA Prediction stuff is everywhere now anyways. I would guess many are much better them mine.
