Why Raina made this pick
Renato Moicano is the more complete grappler here, and the model gives that skill set the deciding weight over 3 rounds.
Brian Ortega's clearest path is forcing grappling exchanges and stealing rounds from top position - a live route, which is why confidence sits at 76%.
Reach, stance (Orthodox vs Orthodox) and pace history all point to a finish around round 2.
