Winner: Wes Schultz
Confidence Score: 60Wes Schultz has a slight edge due to his physical attributes and marginally better statistical output in key areas. He is 29 years old and has a significant reach advantage (77" arm reach, 42" leg reach) and a slightly longer average fight time, indicating some ability to manage pace. His striking accuracy (46%) and defense (48%) are comparable to Damian Pinas' (50% and 46%), but Schultz has demonstrated some takedown offense (40% accuracy) while Pinas has shown no takedown attempts or defense. Both fighters have limited UFC experience and no finishes, but historically, middleweights with reach and takedown attempts/defense have had a slightly higher win rate in similar low-experience matchups. Given the lack of fight history, the pick is cautious but leans toward Schultz due to physical and statistical advantages.
