Winner: Cristian Quinonez

Confidence Score: 82

Cristian Quinonez holds clear statistical and stylistic edges over Kris Moutinho. Quinonez is younger (27 vs 32), has a longer reach (70" arm, 40" leg vs 68" arm, 38" leg), and is more defensively sound (55% significant strike defense vs 29% for Moutinho). Quinonez also has a much higher takedown defense (84% to 0%) and has shown the ability to finish fights early (5 first-round finishes, 10 KOs). Moutinho has absorbed a high volume of damage in his UFC tenure, with a particularly poor significant strike defense and no takedown defense, leading to three consecutive KO/TKO losses. Historically, fighters with Moutinho's defensive stats, age, and lack of finishing ability in the first round have a very low win rate against younger, more accurate, and defensively responsible opponents with finishing power and a grappling background. Quinonez's superior striking accuracy (40% vs 32%) and his ability to mix in takedowns (38% accuracy) further widen the gap. All recent data and matchup trends strongly favor Quinonez to win, most likely by TKO or dominant decision.
