Nathaniel Wood vs Jose Miguel Delgado - AI generated fight pick

Nathaniel Wood is the more proven, experienced UFC fighter with a significantly deeper resume at a high level, having 27 UFC fights compared to Delgado's 2. Wood's striking metrics are slightly better (52% accuracy, 56% defense), and his takedown defense is strong (72%), which is important against an aggressive finisher like Delgado. While Delgado has a notable reach and size advantage (5 inches taller, 4-inch reach), he has not faced the same caliber of competition and is coming off a loss. Historically, experienced featherweights with Wood's defensive metrics and UFC tenure have a high win rate over less-tested prospects, even when giving up reach. Wood's durability (avg fight time 13:18 vs. Delgado's 3:16) and well-rounded skillset make him the safer pick, especially as similar veteran-vs-prospect matchups in the UFC's featherweight division favor the established, defensively sound fighter about 75% of the time.
