How Fight Forecast works
Locked before the fight
Every official forecast is frozen with a timestamp before the event and never edited afterwards.
Probability, not certainty
A 65% estimate means the favourite should lose about one time in three. Upsets are part of the record.
Graded in public
Results, exclusions and post-fight reviews sit next to the locked forecast.
Versioned models
Each forecast names the model version that produced it; retired models keep their own record.
