I was just thinking about this myself. Not saying that people are copying each others picks or anything, but maybe if people made picks in a hidden poll format that would be revealed after the fight is made. It might make things more interesting as people will definitely go with their gut and it'll avoid brave people like yourself going against the grain to try and get an advantage but ultimately knowing it's less likely than a pick you'd do with no competition scenario attached to it. I dunno, just a thought!

As far as I know with hidden polls, mods and admin as well as the post starter can see the results always which would make it unfair, but maybe pac_man or someone could clarify that!

In fairness I wouldn't say people are copying, it wasn't exactly a tough one to call. It was only going one way. I contemplated rd 1-2 but thought hell spend the first getting a feel for it and maybe the second. Mohammedi wasn't going to stay six rounds unless Kovalev wanted it to. That left 3,4,5.

In fairness my prediction of 1-2 wasn't exactly a full out attempt to go against the grain either (most of you predicted after me).
I checked Mohammedi's record and saw that of his 3 losses, he had been KOed in the first 2 rounds twice already. I figured Kovalev would do the same and he probably would have if Bayless hadn't allowed him to recover so much after the first knock down

Good point, I've definitely gone against my own better judgement at times because I've seen so many posters making my favoured prediction. Just to be contrarian in the hope of getting the points.
