Rafa Garcia vs Rongzhu

Who the model expects to win
Probabilities over the two fighters, from the head that was evaluated on its own preregistered bar.
The model separates these two by very little — 52% is close to a coin flip, and nothing in either record breaks the tie cleanly.
How it ends
Read among fights that end with a winner — a draw or no-contest sits outside this sample, so the three add to 100%.
How far it goes
R3+ carries every fight that reaches the judges as well as every round-3-or-later finish.
“Goes the distance” is the method head’s decision probability, not a separate model — so it cannot disagree with the bar above it.
What the corpus knows about each of them
Tracked bouts only — a fight outside the corpus is not counted, and a thin record says so.
4-1 in the last 5. 29% of wins come by finish; 73% of fights reach the judges.
3-2 in the last 5. 33% of wins come by finish; 50% of fights reach the judges.
Where these numbers come from
Three separate heads — winner, method and round — each fitted on a corpus of tracked UFC fights and each published only on its own PASS verdict against a bar frozen before it was fitted. This is the one model on the site that beat its baseline on every head it was tested on.
Educational and paper-only — not betting advice.
