Numbered cards since 1 July 2026: 24 of 33 winners picked. These figures cover numbered Cage Warriors cards only; Academy shows are counted separately below. All of them are tested on past fights, with each fighter rated only on what had happened before that fight. We have not yet graded Cage Warriors picks published ahead of a card, so none of these figures come from picks made in advance.

Cage Warriors Academy shows

Academy shows are Cage Warriors’ development events. They are not in the picks above or in any figure above. On Academy shows since 1 January 2025 the same method picked 59% of winners (168 of 283), tested on past fights. Fighters there have short records, so the ratings have less to go on.

How the picks are made. Every fighter carries a rating built from their whole professional record, updated after each fight and weighted up for finishes. We pick the higher-rated fighter; the bigger the gap, the firmer the pick. High and Medium mark a clear gap, Toss-up a small one. Where neither fighter has enough recorded fights to rate, we say so instead of guessing.
What it is not. These picks use fight records only. They are not part of the UFC picks on this week’s card or the graded UFC record, and how our UFC picks work is a different method. Weight classes and main events are as listed on the Cage Warriors event pages; cards can change late.
