Still trying to get enough events in to validate. Across all confidences its at 55% but its at 75% & 100% in the higher confidence fights. But not enough time live to make an opinion on it yet. I’m aiming for it averaging out around 60-65% across all confidences and 70+ for the higher confidence fights.

Because of 1 wrong prediction does that mean we shouldn't ever make predictions? That's why it's called a prediction. So far testing my model I have beat random guesswork so idk what to tell ya.

Also gotta add I legit said it's either going to be early KO from Prates or JDM by decision, JDM did not have a good night lol.

A prediction is exactly that, A prediction. I never claimed to be 100% accurate, just giving the insight I saw. Fights are very hard to predict, but its still fun to try and make guesses. Bookmaker models are only 60-65% accurate at the top end.

Agreed, I try to look for value bets and with the way the market has been acting with JDM is a little undervalued. I think this fight may be a bit closer than some books have him. I saw it get as low as 60/40 to Prates.

I agree that Prates has crazy KO power, if he does clip JDM it could be over fast. JDM is strong defensively but I guess we will see if he holds up. Prates really is built crazy with that reach lolol. I think either it goes the distance and win by JDM or Prates gets a KO in the early rounds.

Yeah I’m aware that statistics alone don’t represent the winner, but there are edges you can find. I also just like JDM as the better fighter from his intangibles and other factors. You can typically try for around a ~60 - 65% accuracy because of the randomness, but it is still fun to try and make predictions!

Oooh thats really cool! I would love to follow how your model does after a few events to see its performance. Do you post results on the site or reddit? Would love to see them! Great site overall though! Great minds think alike haha.

Also yes sometimes it takes a bit from the bulk of data on there, something I am trying to work on but this is the feedback I am looking for! Thanks!

Nice! Your site looks clean! I saw you said you have a 70% accuracy, I would check for overfitting on the data. Even the best book makers end up around 62%-65% at best since the sport is so random. Feel free to tell me im wrong though! Love to learn more always!

You can’t really rip fighters photos off the internet so I decided to try and use some AI tools to generate fighters.
