Favors VettoriDolidze holds a 2-inch reach edge (76" to 74"); Vettori has to cross distance to land, and opposite stances open the lead-side lane.
Favors DolidzeRead the first two minutes for who is willing to lead and who is countering; the stored numbers do not flag a lopsided early-round finisher.
The middle rounds belong to whoever sets the pace: Vettori averages 4.7 landed per minute to Dolidze at 3.1, so Dolidze needs the counters to land clean (41% accuracy on record).
Scheduled for five rounds: 25 minutes changes the pace math, and a fighter who banks two early rounds can afford to manage the fourth.
