Frequently Asked Questions

Ciryl Gane won. Blueprint MMA's pre-fight pick was Ciryl Gane.

Who wins Ciryl Gane vs Alex Pereira?

Blueprint MMA's War Room Committee picks Ciryl Gane with a 51% win probability.

What could change the outcome of Ciryl Gane vs Alex Pereira?

Weight class debut mass: Pereira's move up from Light Heavyweight introduces unproven heavyweight recoil absorption; if the mass differential surprises him, his finishing pathway constricts. Late-round cardio compression: Both fighters carry age-related late-round questions; if either's output drops materially, the other's path becomes decisive. Grappling expenditure surprise: Gane's secondary wrestling threat, if successfully deployed, could drain Pereira's legs and nullify his power base.

How does Blueprint MMA make this prediction?

Blueprint MMA validates the fight data, builds a freshness-gated evidence pack, and runs it through a Kimi K2/LangGraph War Room Committee, one specialist agent per high-signal factor, 18 in all across 8 weighted categories, with the noise given zero weight. The weighted reads are reconciled, calibrated against settled outcomes, held to a sane 5-95% range, and logged before release; market data is displayed for comparison, not blended into the prediction. If the committee cannot return a valid read, the forecast is held.
