    Them's Fightin' Words Picks Contest - Make Your UFC 168: Weidman vs. Silva II Predictions

    in BOXING & MMA

    Posted

    Okay, let's get this rolling.  Since I don't have the ability to edit/delete posts, this will just end up being a sprawling thread where we do an event, post the leaders and do the next event.  Per DVDMB hero Nenz, here are the old rules and point standings.
     

    RULES:

    Each part of your pick is worth one point. If the fighter you select wins, you receive one point. If they win in the method you specified (TKO/KO, SUB, DEC), you gain another point. If they win in the round you specified, you also receive a point. For fights that go to DEC, you will be awarded points for the method of victory as well as guessing the correct round.

    If you select the wrong fighter, you will receive 0 points.

    Title fights are worth double points in each category.

    YOUR PICKS MUST BE IN THE SAME FORMAT AS MINE OR YOU WILL BE DEDUCTED ONE POINT.

    So is anyone else watching Bellator's Fight Master?  It blows away TUF in terms of format (hard not to as TUF has barely changed anything in 7 years).  But, man, Greg Jackson with no crowd to drown out his corner noise is f'n painful.

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    in LAND OF CONFUSION

    Posted

    Saying that he's still being punished because 'he'll live with this his entire life' is pretty absurd. He doesn't care. He hasn't expressed regret, or grief beyond fearing for himself. He stalked and murdered a kid. He probably thinks he's a hero.To put it clearly, he shot a child and will not be sent to jail. That's the actual meaning of getting away with it.

     

    This.  I'm one of the folks of the belief that Zimmerman highly embellished/straight up lied about what went down that night.  So why would he feel anything bad post-trial.  Makes me almost wish I believe in God.

    So has anyone contacted sprewell about the new board?  I hope he had the numbers for the picks saved.  As I recall, I was in the lead by a margin of about 48 points. ;-)

    What a week for the board to die!  I won't even comment on Silva vs. Weidman for fear of "Are you f'n crazy" replies.

     

    I hope Grant was paid well to be injured.  UFC is just getting blatant about this stuff.
