SourceGrappler versus rangy striker in a classic flyweight clash
Perez enters with a well-rounded game built on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling, while the taller Su relies on long-range striking and a knockout-oriented attack to overwhelm opponents.
SourceFormer title challenger Perez brings top-15 pedigree
Perez is a seasoned contender who once challenged Deiveson Figueiredo for the UFC flyweight belt and remains ranked in the division, giving him a significant experience edge over Su on elite stages.
SourceSu’s history of tap-outs makes defensive grappling a focal point
Su has been submitted multiple times in the UFC, including losses to Tim Elliott, Matt Schnell, and Louis Smolka, spotlighting his defensive grappling as a critical question heading into this matchup.
SourceHometown showcase for Su on Chinese soil
Competing as the home fighter in Shanghai, Su represents local star power in front of a partisan crowd against the traveling American Perez in a main-card flyweight bout.
SourcePerez’s recent surge in finishing form at flyweight

SourcePick Ideas
Market perception angle from Su’s past closing odds
Su has previously been a sizeable favorite against Zarrukh Adashev but an underdog versus submission specialists like Tim Elliott and Matt Schnell, suggesting bettors adjust sharply to stylistic risk rather than pure record.
Totals play leveraging Su’s recent decision-heavy win streak
Before the Macau no-contest, Su’s last three victories came via decision, which supports considering an over on rounds or a fight-goes-the-distance prop if he can maintain a measured striking approach.
Perez inside-the-distance based on early-finish profile
With a double-digit tally of first-round finishes on his record, Perez offers value on inside-the-distance or under-rounds props if he can impose pace and pressure from the opening horn.
Age and turnaround dynamics in side selection
The quick rematch roughly three months after Macau, combined with Perez being the older fighter and Su still in his physical prime, can tilt some bettors toward the younger home athlete in moneyline or spread-style markets.
Live-betting angle tied to hometown pressure on Su
Su’s role as the featured local fighter in Shanghai introduces extra emotional volatility, making live bets on Perez particularly intriguing if Su starts fast but appears to tighten up or fade under main-card pressure.
