RAF 13 delivered exactly the kind of lopsided wrestling most people expected in the main event, as Colby Covington ran his RAF record to undefeated by shutting out Belal Muhammad.

That result lines up with what our numbers say about where these two are right now. Muhammad, ranked eighth at welterweight in the UFC with an Elo of 1525 across six tracked bouts, is coming off a decision loss to Gabriel Bonfim in June. Covington, a former UFC interim welterweight champion and NCAA All-American wrestler, retired from MMA earlier this year, and this performance suggests his wrestling pedigree still translates cleanly to this format.

The co-main saw Khamzat Chimaev work harder than expected before putting away Gilbert Burns. reported Chimaev racked up 15 points and needed to go until the second period to secure the technical fall, even after giving up a couple of takedowns along the way.

Fans are already buzzing about the Covington-Muhammad result over on r/MMA, where a thread dedicated to the main event has fight fans picking apart what it means heading into each man's next move.
