Payton Talbott vs Felipe Lima - AI generated fight pick

Payton Talbott holds a significant edge in striking with a 56% significant strike accuracy and a high finish rate (7 KOs in 9 wins), compared to Felipe Lima's 45% accuracy and only 4 KOs in 14 wins. Talbott also has a longer reach (arm: 70.5" vs 68", leg: 40" vs 38"), which is historically a strong predictor of success in bantamweight matchups, especially among fighters under 28. While Lima is a dangerous and defensively sound striker (73% sig strike defense, 83% takedown defense), Talbott's offensive volume, reach, and power have overwhelmed similar opponents. Both fighters are on winning streaks, but Talbott's more aggressive style and proven finishing ability give him a slight edge in a fight likely to be contested mostly on the feet. However, Lima's durability and defense keep this from being a high-confidence pick.
