A data-driven look at Mixed Martial Arts.

Cage Calculus provides MMA fans with a data-driven look at their favorite fighters in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Using a statistical analysis, Cage Calculus rates fighters in all weight classes based on their record, strength of victory/defeat, methods of victory/defeat, and their performance in title fights.

Here’s the type of content you can expect regularly from Cage Calculus:

  • Fight Night Previews: An in-depth look at each fight in upcoming UFC Fight Nights. A breakdown of the fighters, their ratings, and predictions for each fight according to the data. Also, a look beyond the numbers to see what the data may not be telling you!
  • Fight Night Recaps: After the action is over, and the dust has settled, a look at where each fighter stands now and at what could be next. Breaking down the results and talking about what we learned from the fighters and the data.
  • Rankings: Are the actual UFC rankings an actual reflection of the 15 best fighters in each weight class? Find out each week, after every event has ended, where each division stands and where the algorithm says each fighter should be ranked. Let the debates begin!
  • Fighter Profiles: An even deeper look at some of the most intriguing fighters in the UFC. Go into the numbers to look at their past fights, when they were the biggest favorites/underdogs and see where they stack up with the legends of old.
  • History: Who is the greatest fighter of all-time? Who belongs on a Mount Rushmore of each weight division? What was the biggest upset of all-time? The Cage Calculus model can help fuel these arguments and so many more by taking a look at data going all the way back to UFC 1.

Stay tuned for all this and more as Cage Calculus hits the ground running with the best data-driven analysis MMA has to offer.
