Frequently Asked Questions

Who won Kevin Borjas vs Andre Lima?

Kevin Borjas won. Blueprint MMA's pre-fight pick was Andre Lima.

Who wins Kevin Borjas vs Andre Lima?

Blueprint MMA's War Room Committee picks Andre Lima with a 58% win probability.

What could change the outcome of Kevin Borjas vs Andre Lima?

Layoff timing collapse: Lima's extended absence could manifest in mistimed entries, letting Borjas land the power shots his volume deficit demands. Chin gives out under first clean shot: Borjas's flagged damage history means one well-placed Lima counter could end the firefight earlier than the decision lean suggests. Cardio inversion: If Borjas paces himself unexpectedly well, his heavier hands could steal late rounds Lima's volume path needs.

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. Methodology is documented at https://blueprintmma.com/manifesto and accuracy is tracked publicly at https://blueprintmma.com/track-record.
