Pre-fight analysis

Alex Perez's finishing power meets Sumudaerji's volume-first approach in a flyweight clash with contrasting styles.

Alex Perez (26-10) has quietly rebuilt himself into a relevant flyweight contender. Ranked #10 in the division, his KO win over Charles Johnson at UFC 324 in January was a statement — the kind of emphatic finish that reminds everyone he once challenged for the flyweight title.

Perez intel

Perez (26-10) is ranked #10 at flyweight and coming off a KO win at UFC 324 in January. His 75% finish rate is elite, but his chin rating of 18 means he's perpetually one clean shot from being stopped. Riding a perfect 100 momentum rating.

intel

Sumudaerji (19-7) is a high-volume southpaw with a 7.87 output rate. His win at UFC 326 showed his ability to outwork opponents, but his 16.7% finish rate means he almost never stops anyone. His chin at 62 is significantly more durable than Perez's 18.

Key angles

Perez's 75% finish rate vs Sumudaerji's 16.7% — a classic finisher vs point-fighter clash

Perez's fragile chin (18) creating urgency to finish early

Sumudaerji's 7.87 volume rate as the highest on this portion of the card

The southpaw vs orthodox dynamic and its impact on Perez's counter-timing

Risk flags

Perez's 18-rated chin means any sustained exchange could end in disaster for him

If Sumudaerji survives the first two rounds, the fight increasingly favours his volume approach
