• Cato estimated 30% on 2019-01-09
• Cato said “Model calculates Laplace rule-of-succession probabilities for each fighter in a bout. If Fighter A has the higher probability α than Fighter B’s β, then Fighter A is predicted to win at p = α/(α+β), and Fighter B is predicted to win at q = 1 – p.” on 2019-01-09
