Derrick Lewis/Josh Hokit
HeavyweightWinner Committee
Thirty-three specialists answer distinct winner-only questions. Eligible evidence is renormalized only inside its original lane.
Fight-State Projection
These are distributions of eligible committee signal mass—not invented percentages of fight time.
Conditional Method Model
Each row is conditional on that fighter already winning; every fighter row sums to 100%.
Conditional Round Model
Round-event mass is derived from survival-conditioned hazards. The final scheduled round is absorbing.
Probability Reconciliation
The exact-outcome grid preserves both winner marginals and sums to 100%. Decision branches have no round.
Output Selection
The winner and every outcome label come from one immutable reconciled distribution. Oversight may widen uncertainty, never move the point forecast.

What could change the outcome of Derrick Lewis vs Josh Hokit?
Early chin test: Lewis has been finished by strikes multiple times; if Hokit's volume lands clean in an exchange, the fight's dynamic inverts before wrestling matters. Failed shot exposure: Hokit's entries against Lewis's reach and uppercut from the clinch create the classic heavyweight KO trap; one stuffed takedown into a counter ends the path. Cardio collapse in third round: At 41 with prior damage, Lewis's output has historically compressed past the opening frames; Hokit's path widens if the fight reaches the final round intact.
How does Blueprint MMA make this prediction?
Blueprint MMA validates and freezes the fight data, then runs 68 Kimi K2.6 agent executions: 33 Winner, 10 Method, 20 Timing, and 5 non-voting Oversight. Kimi K2.6 is the only inference model; LangGraph only orchestrates stage order and state. Winner agents fix the point probability first, Method and Timing agents fill conditional branches without reopening it, and Oversight audits without voting. The public probability is held to a sane 5-95% range and logged before release. Published winner probabilities are AI-only. Market prices may be shown for benchmarking, CLV, and workflow context, but they do not select, rank, or alter the published forecast. If the direct pipeline cannot return a valid read, the forecast is held.
