What these numbers mean
Model
Our projection: the fair price and win chance for each side.
Listed
The price on our sheet when the projection was published.
Market
The current consensus price. The % is the straight conversion of that price, so it still includes the book's margin.
Edge
Model % minus the listed % (moneyline, goes the distance) or minus the market % (inside the distance, method). Positive means the model likes that side more than the price does. Coloured only at 2.0 points or more either way.
Price unavailable
The odds feed has a price, but it fails our sanity rule (rule v3: a one-sided distance market; this bout's method prices adding up to over 140% or, when complete, under 100%; a draw shorter than +1000; or two of them opening at exactly +100), so we do not show it. Not offered = no price in the feed.
Line move
How far the win chance has moved from the opener to the current line, with the opener of the side it moved toward. The current line uses US-regulated books only.
Spot to watch
Shows only when a tested angle applies to this fight: the striking-edge rule (career strike differential gap 1.9+ per minute, both fighters with 4+ UFC fights), the round-3 rule (R3 differential gap about 2.9+ per minute), or the comeback spot (one fighter much better in round 3 than round 1 relative to the other). Each line gives the test it comes from. None has been tested on live prices.
Price unverified
The listed price was not seen at a US-regulated book in the 24 hours before our projection was published, so we do not colour its edge until the sheet is checked.

Output kept, R3 vs R1
75%
What these numbers mean
Where they land
Share of each fighter's landed significant strikes that hit the head, body and legs.
Diff /min
Strikes landed minus strikes absorbed to that target, per minute of fight time.
Head defence
Share of opponents' head strikes that missed.
Rounds won
Share of rounds they won. A round that ends in a finish goes to the fighter who finished it. Other rounds are scored by our judging model (strikes by target, knockdowns, takedowns, control time, submission attempts), which picks the winner of UFC decisions 85% of the time.
Small numbers
Strike differential per minute in that round, and how many UFC fights reached it.
Five-round rows
Output and differential in rounds 4-5 compared with rounds 1-3, for fighters who have been there.
Output kept, R3 vs R1
Round-3 significant strike attempts as a share of round-1 attempts, in fights that got through round 3 (Labs; needs 3 such fights). Over 100% means they throw more late.
Note
All stats use UFC fights before this card only. Green = the better side; darker green = a bigger gap. A small fight count beside a number means it is below the sample Labs requires (5 UFC fights for head defence, 3 for pace).

What these numbers mean
Takedowns /15
Takedowns landed per 15 minutes.
TD accuracy / defence
Share of their takedown attempts that land; share of opponents' attempts they stop.
Time in control / controlled
Share of fight time spent controlling the opponent, or being controlled.
Net control, opp-adjusted
Control time minus time controlled, as a share of fight time, corrected for how strong the opponents were. Controlling good opponents counts for more. In testing it predicted who wins the grappling better than the raw number in each of the last five years.
Sub attempts /15
Submission attempts per 15 minutes.
Note
All stats use UFC fights before this card only. Green = the better side; darker green = a bigger gap. A small fight count beside a number means it is below the sample Labs requires (5 UFC fights for head defence, 3 for pace).
