Alex Perez (pressure wrestler, pressure boxer) against Gregory Rodrigues (power puncher, pressure boxer, opportunistic) is a UFC flyweight matchup in —. The independent model puts Rodrigues around 64% — a medium confidence number, not a betting line. The largest factor from 50/50 is striking skill (distance & pocket): Perez striking rating 1431 vs Rodrigues 1740. Weighted by estimated standing time (73%).

Where this is fought matters. Estimated grappling share is 27%. Perez lands 4.2 significant strikes per minute at 46% accuracy with a 2.6 takedown average; Rodrigues is at 5.2 / 51% / 1.6. Takedown defense sits at 70% versus 61%. Reach is 67" against 75" — counted only if the longer fighter actually lives at range.

Perez's primary path: Chain takedowns on Rodrigues's 61% defense, hold mat time, and win the control/attrition round. Failure mode: The chin has been a problem. One pocket exchange can end the math. Rodrigues's primary path: One clean counter or lead hook as Perez enters. Power is the shortcut; it is not a plan by itself. Failure mode: If the first takedown lands, Rodrigues may spend the round on the fence or on their back.

The swing variable is simple: If Perez cannot keep this on the mat in the first eight minutes, Rodrigues's striking becomes the fight. The model does not start from a sportsbook. If DraftKings or Fanatics disagree, that disagreement is the point of the page.
