Jean Paul Lebosnoyani vs Seokhyeon Ko

Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani is 1-0 in the UFC, a split-decision win over Phil Rowe in February.

Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani is 1-0 in the UFC, a split-decision win over Phil Rowe in February. Seokhyeon Ko is 2-0, with unanimous decisions over Oban Elliott in June 2025 and Rowe that November. The model leans Ko, though not by a wide margin.

The read

The two men share an opponent. Ko beat Rowe on all three cards in November; Lebosnoyani beat him on a split decision in February. Ko's path is the one he has already used twice, winning three rounds on points. Lebosnoyani's path is a second close decision, which he has shown he can get. All three of the pair's UFC wins went the distance, which is why decision is the top method here.
