    Canelo 43%
    Khan 42%
    Garcia 33%
    Alexander 30%
    Alavado (He's going to leave Top Rank within 2-3 weeks) 25%


    Let me explain in more detail for the mathmatically challenged mother ****ers.


    'Leonard'
    Give a % off the top of your head of Floyd fighting Canelo

    oh around 42-43%

    Give a % off the top of your head of Floyd fighting Khan
    oh around 42-43 %


    He starts from 100% each time.
    The remaining % = someone else.

    But it can't be all the same % though. because Leonard said they have different chances of it happening.

    Ok another real life example:

    How many girls are you considering for your next GF.

    3


    What's the % of you going out with the girl in your biology lecture.

    Oh 35%

    What's the % of you going out with the girl from your church
    I say 50% ..

    What's the % of you going out with the girl from your Business Club
    60%



    3 girls... It don't add up to 100%... It's just the % of it happening with EACH.

    It don't have to add up to 100%

    So with Floyd it's FIVE targets.

    What's the % of you fighting Khan Floyd?
    Oh I say around 42%
    etcccc

    It makes sense. Where did you get this info from Ellerbe, in an article, social media
    ?

    My uncle met him and asked him.. They used to do body guard work back in the 90's when Ellerbe was known as Vicious L and my uncle was LiL T.

    The numbers you just gave indicate a .43 *.42 *.33 *.30 *.25 = 0.0045 =
    0.45% chance that Floyd will fight all five of them at the same time. Now, I'd
    like to see that but of course that's ridiculous.

    You pulling multiple girlfriends is equally ridiculous but for entirely different, non
    mathematical reasons.

    Yuuuuup

    I laughed hard when I saw those "percentages."

    A percentage is out one hundred.

    He would have been more credible to say something like "real good," "real good," "pretty good," "pretty good but a little less," and "least chance."

    God what a horrible original post. One of the funniest I've seen, considering it was a genuine accident.
