- Why Giga Chikadze is priced where it is (22%):
- Chikadze is on a three-fight losing skid, with a decision loss to David Onama (April 2025) and a second-round spinning-back-fist KO loss to Kevin Vallejos (December 2025).
- His pre-UFC opponents went a combined 3-67, suggesting his record was built against weak competition.
- Brito's recent form includes a first-round submission of Jordan Leavitt (June 2026) and a unanimous decision over Isaac Thomson (December 2025), showing he can win by multiple methods.
📐 What would change this call: if the market drops Joanderson Brito 5+ points under the books it becomes a HIGH-confidence discount. If the top books split by more than 5 points, or a starter is scratched, it goes to HOLD.

📈 Where the Market Stands
| Option | Market | Book Consensus | Gap | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Joanderson Brito | 79% | 78.1% | +0.9 pts | ⚪ FAIR PRICE |
| Giga Chikadze | 22% | 21.9% | +0.1 pts | ⚪ FAIR PRICE |
Gap is market minus book consensus. Negative means the market is cheaper than the books, that is the discount we look for. 5 or more points cheaper is where the edge lives. 5 or more points over is overpaying.
