The story going in
  • Has dropped 2 straight in the UFC.
  • Has finished 2 of 3 UFC wins.
We hold no public fighter-register entry for Abdul Hussein yet, so there is no side-by-side to lay out here — an empty ladder would say less than saying that. The lines above are counted off the official UFC fight record, which does carry both corners.

Significant strikes, takedowns, control time, knockdowns and submission attempts exactly as UFCStats recorded them for this bout, round by round. Zone percentages are that round’s landed head, body and leg counts over their own total — raw arithmetic, nothing modelled or smoothed. A round in which a fighter landed nothing shades empty and reads zero; it is never filled in from the round before.

Rate bars run to the population’s 95th percentile (5.45 takedowns / 15m); a fighter above it pins the bar. Percentages are drawn on their own axis.

Career UFC takedown rates exactly as UFCStats publishes them: takedowns landed per 15 minutes, completion rate, submission attempts per 15 minutes, and the share of takedowns tried on them that they stuffed. Attempts per 15 is the one derived figure — landed ÷ completion rate — and it is omitted wherever either input is missing. UFCStats writes 0% where no attempt was recorded at all, so a percentage of exactly zero reads “n/a” here rather than as a measured rate. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.

The market story

What the market did on the way to the cage — the price, not our model. The gold marker is where our pick was frozen.

Abdul Hussein vs Cody Gibson — implied win chance over timeLine chart. Market-implied win chance for Abdul Hussein and Cody Gibson from Jul 20 to Jul 25, drawn from Polymarket and the sportsbook consensus. Abdul Hussein moves from 72% to 82% and Cody Gibson from 28% to 18%. A gold marker sits at the first snapshot in this window — our pick was frozen before the window opened, not at that price.10%20%30%40%50%60%70%80%90%Jul 20Jul 22Jul 23Jul 24Jul 25▲ our call: Abdul Hussein (MED)82%18%

From the open the market drifted toward our pick: Abdul Hussein's implied chance moved up from 72% to 82% (+10.0pp). Our pick was frozen at the model cutoff, before this window opened — so the gold marker sits at the first snapshot we hold, not at a price we were reacting to.

This series stops at Jul 25 12:48Z — the point at which this bout’s own market began the move that ended in settlement. Our capture window is card-level and kept running through the fight, so what follows it in the raw file is the market collapsing live and then paying out at 1.00 / 0.00. That is a settlement, not price history: it is not drawn, and it is not counted in the figures below.

Our published call had Abdul Hussein at 70.2%. At the last price we captured before this bout’s market began to settle, the de-vigged market had him at 81.5% — our number sat 11.3pp below the market’s. Two numbers, side by side. How our calls have actually done is the public record, not one bout.
