Winner: Ismail Naurdiev

Confidence Score: 80

Ismail Naurdiev holds a stylistic advantage over Bruno Silva in several key areas. Firstly, Naurdiev has a higher significant strike accuracy (53%) compared to Silva's 50%, suggesting he is more precise with his striking. Furthermore, Naurdiev's significant strike defense is substantially better at 68% compared to Silva's 42%, indicating that Naurdiev is more adept at avoiding significant strikes, which is crucial against a striker like Silva.

In terms of grappling, Naurdiev's takedown accuracy (71%) is significantly higher than Silva's (28%), coupled with comparable takedown defense (70% for Naurdiev vs. 74% for Silva). This indicates that Naurdiev has a more effective ground game, which he can exploit given Silva's weak takedown accuracy.

While Silva has a higher number of knockouts (20), Naurdiev's defensive statistics suggest he is well-equipped to mitigate this threat. Silva's recent fight history is also concerning, with three consecutive losses in 2023 and 2024, pointing to a possible decline in performance. Naurdiev's youth (26 years old) compared to Silva (34 years old) could also play a role in conditioning and resilience over the course of the fight.

Overall, Naurdiev's well-rounded skill set, coupled with recent performance data, positions him as the more likely victor in their upcoming match.
