Winner: Alex Perez

Confidence Score: 68

Alex Perez is the more well-rounded and experienced fighter in this matchup. He has a significant edge in grappling and submission ability, with 7 wins by submission compared to Sumudaerji's zero. Perez's takedown accuracy (48%) and defense (76%) are both superior to Sumudaerji's, which is important because Sumudaerji has been submitted in the past (notably by Tim Elliott) and has shown vulnerability on the ground. While Sumudaerji is a dynamic striker with a reach advantage and good striking accuracy (51%), Perez's striking is also solid (46% accuracy, 59% defense), and his average fight time is shorter, indicating he can push a pace and finish early. Historically, fighters with Perez's style and experience, especially those with strong wrestling and submission skills at flyweight, have a higher win rate against pure strikers, especially when the striker has shown grappling weaknesses. Perez's recent form includes tough competition, and he remains ranked in the top 10, suggesting a higher level of proven performance. The main risk is Sumudaerji's reach and knockout power, but Perez's style and skill set give him the edge.
