UFC on FOX 8: Ratings vs. Odds (07-27-2013)

Posted on July 26, 2013 by Jason

This is not an attempt to suggest the rating system is more accurate than gambling odds. Gamblers can analyze each fight individually, while the rating system uses a variety of mathematical routines to supply a primary fighter rating that is focused on ranking recent achievement, with a secondary priority of gauging future expectation.

With that said, there are some caveats to using the rating vs. odds comparison straight-up — the “Gotcha” list:

System inability to project the exact effects of a recent divisional change.
System inability to project the exact effects of recent inactivity or short-notice.
Poor matchmaking / limited careers / “changing of the guard”.
Notable home advantage.
System inability to project style differences.
System inability to factor in bad judging or overturned decisions.

But this stuff (especially #5) is pretty much common sense. We try to partially factor in #1-#3 when we compute the ratings, but #5 and #6 is something that the human can factor in, that the system can’t. For the sake of these articles, we’ll attempt to factor in #4 when relevant. Home advantage can have a slight effect, but likely not enough to sway the “I’d bet on” decision.

Experienced gamblers know that it’s not about being right the most, it’s about making the most money. So in the usual table, I’ll add the “I’d bet on” column and analyze the rating/odds gap plus points #1-4 that I listed above. I’ll leave #5 and #6 to the fully subjective analyses — of which I’m sure there will be plenty.

The gotchas aren’t necessarily comprehensive, but I have noted them as I come across them and when they are considered in the decision.

Having said all that, let’s get started:

Ratings vs. Odds

Fight	Odds Favorite	Rating Favorite	I’d bet on	“Gotchas”
Albert vs. Meza	Albert (-230 / Moderate)	Meza (2.30x / Large)	PASS	#1

Upcoming Division Dominance Change

Posted on July 18, 2013 by Jason

With the next rankings update, we will be making a slight tweak to our division dominance routine that will observe interference caused by division jumpers and help situations in which fighters gain most of their points in a strong division, then move to a weaker division — most recently seen at Women’s Featherweight with Marloes Coenen.

Hopefully, this will edge the methodology just a bit closer to a traditional “pound-for-pound” ranking, but it will remain unique in nature. Due to the strength of Men’s MMA across the board, this will have very little effect. However, the Women’s list will be moderately affected by this alteration.

Undefeated Winners’ Performance in Immediate Rematch / Winners’ Performance after KO

Posted on July 15, 2013 by Jason

I had every intent to create a blog entry, detailing the performance of undefeated winners in an immediate rematch.

However, in known professional MMA history, Chris Weidman will be the first undefeated fighter to give his opponent (Anderson Silva) an immediate rematch after winning the first match — unless it is beaten by a bout scheduled to take place prior to the rematch.

On another note, I found 303 immediate rematches in which the original fighter won by KO or TKO. In the rematches, the original winner was 191-105-5 (2 NC) — a win % of 63.5% (excluding the no contests).

Narrowing the target down to known Middleweight contests w/ an original finish of TKO or TKO, the original winner was 7-6-1 (50%)
Narrowing the target down to round 2 finishes KOs and TKOs, the original winner was 43-19-2 (67.2%).
Getting ultra-specific, there is only one known immediate rematch in which the original match took place at Middleweight with a round 2 KO/TKO finish, and the original winner (Roman Dosenko) lost.

UFC 162: Ratings vs. Odds (07-06-2013)

Posted on July 5, 2013 by Jason

With that said, there are some caveats to using the rating vs. odds comparison straight-up — the “Gotcha” list:

System inability to project the exact effects of a recent divisional change.
System inability to project the exact effects of recent inactivity or short-notice.
Poor matchmaking / limited careers / “changing of the guard”.
Notable home advantage.
System inability to project style differences.
System inability to factor in bad judging or overturned decisions.

The gotchas aren’t necessarily comprehensive, but I have noted them as I come across them and when they are considered in the decision.

Having said all that, let’s get started:

Ratings vs. Odds

Fight	Odds Favorite	Rating Favorite	I’d bet on	“Gotchas”
Pierce vs. Mitchell	Pierce (-643 / Very Large)	Pierce (4.26x / Massive)	Pierce
Baczynski vs. Melancon	Baczynski (-293 / Moderate)	Baczynski (3.30x / Very Large)	Baczynski	#2
Barboza vs. Oliveira	Barboza (-586 / Very Large)	Barboza (1.45x / Small)	PASS	#2
Gonzaga vs. Herman	Gonzaga (-243 / Moderate)	Gonzaga (2.24x / Large)	Gonzaga
Parke vs. Tokudome	Parke (-199 / Moderate)	Tokudome (1.02x / Pick ‘Em)	Tokudome
Craig vs. Leben	Craig (-152 / Small)	Leben (1.07x / Pick ‘Em)	Leben
Swanson vs. Siver	Swanson (-234 / Moderate)	Siver (1.06x / Pick ‘Em)	Siver
Munoz vs. Boetsch	Munoz (-128 / Very Small)	Boetsch (1.03x / Pick ‘Em)	Boetsch
Gracie vs. Kennedy	Kennedy (-149 / Small)	Gracie (1.29x / Small)	Gracie
Edgar vs. Oliveira	Edgar (-580 / Very Large)	Edgar (3.39x / Very Large)	PASS
Silva vs. Weidman	Silva (-244 / Moderate)	Silva (2.54x / Large)	PASS	#3

The PASS suggests that the odds and ratings difference are nearly identical and/or there are too many gotchas, so neither fighter is a good bet.

Betting favorites to consider: Pierce, Baczynski, Gonzaga

Betting underdogs to consider:

Tokudome over Parke
Leben over Craig
Siver over Swanson
Boetsch over Munoz
Gracie over Kennedy

All of the above betting underdogs are simply cases where the rating system disagrees with the odds as to who is the favorite, but the separation is small on all of them — they are all nearly 50/50 fights per the ratings.

Happy Fourth of July!
