    How many here gave JMM more than 50 percent chance of defeating PBF?

    I made it a poll to easily determine the number. Be aware that this is a public poll, meaning we will know exactly who voted for every poll option. ;)

    In the betting odds, PBF is installed as a heavy 4 to 1 favorite to defeat JMM...

    Those who will vote for "more than 50%" and "even 50/50 fight" needs to explain why he/she thinks it that way... ;)

    Those who will vote for "less than 50%", no need to explain... It's fully understandable... ;)

    I don't believe a boxer has "no chance" at all so "no chance" is not included in the poll options.


    Vote now...

    I give him a hell of a chance, but more than 50% is a little too much. Almost 50%

    More of a chance than I gave Hatton or Oscar

    "Almost 50%" is "less than 50 percent"... You sounds a bit confident on JMM or you just don't want to explain...:D Come'on, make it "50/50" and explain why... :D

    Please cast your vote...

    I posted on other threads that I gave JMM a 0.01 % chance of defeating PBF... but I'm also tempted to vote on "This is not a fair fight"...

    BTW, if you convert the betting odds to percentage, how will that be?

    Note: JMM is 1 to 4 underdog...

    Does it translate to 25 % chance of winning?

    Less than 50%. One of Floyds talents seems to be picking opponents.
