AI Reasoning (why the models picked this)

Ketlen Souza's win streak and reach advantage are key drivers, alongside Loopy Godinez's lower sig strike accuracy and age. The ENSEMBLE favors Ketlen Souza (51%), despite a split among individual models, due to calibrated weighting.

  • Statistical Model β: Model β favors Ketlen Souza, citing her superior win rate, less time past her prime, younger age, higher sig strike accuracy, and younger age.
  • Statistical Model ε: Model ε favors Loopy Godinez, noting Ketlen Souza's lower ground strike share and shorter reach, despite Ketlen Souza's distance strike share and weight class favoring her.

How Similar Fights Ended

286 historical bouts

Every past fight is placed by the SHAPE of its mismatch — how far apart the two fighters were on each of 37 career measures, setting aside which one was ahead. Fights that sit close together form a profile. Below is how the 286 bouts in this bout's profile actually ended.

57% Reached the judges
43% Ended early
31% KO/TKO 13% Submission 6:35 Median finish, round 2
When those finishes came

This is a base rate over similar past matchups, not a prediction about these two fighters. It is drawn from what happened historically, and the profile is blind to which corner is which — so it can say how fights like this one tend to go, and nothing at all about who wins.

Fights with a similar mismatch

Every fighter is reduced to a profile of 37 career measures as they stood going into the fight, standardised so that no single measure dominates merely for having bigger units — a far wider read than the six charted below. The bout is then described by the gap between the two: how far apart they were on each of those measures, setting aside which one was ahead. The fights listed here are those whose gaps line up most closely with this one. Because the match is on the shape of a mismatch rather than on a weight class or an era, a neighbour can come from an entirely different division.

75% How closely the gap between these two fighters resembles the gap in that historical bout — the size and shape of the mismatch, not the fighters themselves. Two completely different pairs can produce the same mismatch. 100% would be an identical gap; two fights picked at random score about 36%, so a number near that means there is no real comparable on record.
