Winner: Farid Basharat

Confidence Score: 85

Farid Basharat holds an unbeaten record of 12-0-0, which suggests a strong streak of victories and potentially having a high level of confidence entering this fight. Though most of his victories are by submission (6 out of 12), his striking accuracy remains noteworthy at 58% with a similarly solid striking defense of 58%. This implies that he is an efficient striker and has the ability to avoid significant damage from opponents as well.

On the ground, he also showcases a well-rounded skill set with a takedown accuracy of 42% and takedown defense of 83%, suggesting that he can dictate the fight's location, whether it takes place on the feet or the ground, as he sees fit.

In contrast, Victor Hugo, though holding a more extensive record of 25-4-0, is coming off a recent loss and lacks the momentum Basharat currently enjoys. He displays a diversified finishing ability with 17 finishes (7 by knockout and 10 by submission) and has solid statistics such as a significant strike accuracy of 51% and an excellent takedown defense of 88%. However, his recent defeat and additional weight (151 lb compared to Basharat's 136 lb fighting weight) might affect his speed and stamina in the bantamweight division.

Additionally, Basharat is significantly younger at 26 (compared to Hugo's 31 years) and is an inch taller, perhaps giving him a slight edge in agility and reach during exchanges. His undefeated record might indicate more recent and relevant competition experience, especially under the currently rigorous matchmaking in the UFC.

Overall, based on Basharat's performance metrics, undefeated record, and diversified skills, I predict that he will likely secure a victory over Hugo. His ability to adapt his fighting style and manage different phases of the fight effectively lends to this confidence score.
