A four-month gap in our fight data just got fixed — and the retrained model graded as a statistical tie against our forward record. Sometimes the biggest analytics story is confirming what you already had right. #UFC #MMA #SportsAnalytics
Van vs Pantoja 2: Model Analysis
A four-month gap in our per-round fight stats is fixed: 177 fights backfilled, the winner model retrained, and three of twelve UFC 331 picks flipped — Chikadze over Brito, Moura over O'Neill, Yoo over Aswell. The retrain graded as a tie on our forward record: a data repair, not a
