Pre-fight analysis

Two middleweights with matching composite ratings, matching pressure and two of the weakest chins in the division — this ends early, one way or the other.

Some fights are close because the model cannot decide and some are close because there is genuinely nothing to decide between. Edmen Shahbazyan rates 62.0. Brunno Ferreira rates 62.7. Their pressure scores are 7.24 and 7.63, their volume 2.98 and 2.53, their finish rates 0.78 and 0.83. Two aggressive middleweights who end fights and get ended. The durability numbers are what make it volatile rath…

Shahbazyan intel

Shahbazyan (16-5) lost a decision to Brendan Allen in June 2026 after knocking out Andre Muniz in the first round in October 2025 and Dylan Budka in 95 seconds in February 2025. At 28 he is the younger man by five years, and his 18.0 chin rating is the worrying figure — Gerald Meerschaert submitted him in 2024.

Ferreira intel

Ferreira (15-3) has lost two straight, a decision to Ikram Aliskerov in June 2026 and a first-round knockout to Gregory Rodrigues in March. Before that he beat Marvin Vettori on the cards and submitted both Jackson McVey and Armen Petrosyan inside two rounds. A 0.83 finish rate and a 42.0 chin rating.

Key angles

Seven tenths of a point between the composites — 62.7 against 62.0

Chin ratings of 18.0 and 42.0 in a fight both men want standing

Ferreira's 3.33 submission score against the only route anyone has used to finish Shahbazyan

Ten centimetres of height and eight of reach for Shahbazyan

Ferreira's win over Marvin Vettori is the best name on either sheet, and it was nine months ago

Risk flags

Shahbazyan's 18.0 chin rating means Ferreira's 0.83 finish rate needs one connection

If Ferreira gets a takedown, Shahbazyan's 0.99 wrestling score offers almost no resistance and his one recent stoppage loss was a submission
