Winner: Quillan Salkilld

Confidence Score: 68

Quillan Salkilld has a significant physical advantage with a 3-inch height, 4-inch arm reach, and 3-inch leg reach edge over Rongzhu, which historically correlates with a higher win rate in lightweight matchups. Salkilld is younger in UFC experience but has demonstrated excellent finishing ability (5 first-round finishes in 11 fights), a high significant strike accuracy (58%), and perfect takedown defense (100%). While Rongzhu is more experienced with 33 pro fights and has strong takedown defense (84%) and a high takedown accuracy (63%), his significant strike defense (53%) is not enough to offset Salkilld's offensive efficiency and physical advantages. Recent form also favors Salkilld, who is on a three-fight win streak with quick finishes, whereas Rongzhu has alternated wins and losses and suffered a stoppage loss within his last three fights. The data suggests Salkilld's striking accuracy, reach, and defensive grappling will be decisive.
