Chidi Njokuani has significant physical advantages in this matchup, with a 6-inch arm reach and 5-inch leg reach advantage over Carlos Leal, which is historically significant in striking-heavy welterweight bouts. Njokuani also boasts a superior significant strike accuracy (62%) and defense (57%) compared to Leal (51% accuracy, 53% defense). Both fighters are primarily strikers, but Njokuani's finishing ability (15 KOs, 10 first-round finishes) and experience edge are notable. While Leal has excellent takedown defense (90%), Njokuani does not attempt takedowns, so this is less relevant.
