    Unreal stuff Jimmi. I don't know how you do it man, epic predicting skills every week.

    Keep doing whatever you are doing.

    Have no idea either things just seem to keep going right it's weird! Just hope I can keep on scoring well above expectation for a few more weeks!

    Such a great card! This is how I am going:
    Ramos
    Blaydes
    Gall
    OSP
    Harris
    Duffy
    Borrach
    Thompson
    Joanna
    Bisping

    Lots of fairly one sided looking fights I don't think I've ever gone for as many finishes before!

    It's a sign of how far ahead you are that you can post your picks here!

    You must something up your sleeve for Cody vs. TJ if you’re not posting your prediction for that fight. Double KO?! :pac:

    7 more to go now! Unbelievable event. Fairly mixes things up presumably won't have to wait long to see atleast one rematch from that card.

    Second picked up 75 points on me last night but looks like they picked the exact same fighters as me which bodes well and pretty sure third only differed by one. Guessing if we're in this position after a couple more events them start taking some punts.

    It’ll be the making or breaking of them. Any particular strategy from you for the home stretch??

    Kinda abandoned this thread for a bit, but had a hectic few months at home, have been following though and it's seriously impressive stuff having a boardsie in 1st.

    I think I'm checking the rankings after events more than you are.

    Good luck in the run in.

    While I'm top I'll just keep going as I am I guess it's only really when you're chasing you have to start trying to come up with a counter strategy.

    Looks like they forgot to update the picture for Bisping! Asker is fighting back to back to open the card too what is going on :pac:

    Reminder for early card, get them in tonight! Tons of bonuses available on this card, could be a major decider.

    Hard to call though, so many unknowns.

    Gone for a couple of risky home wins early on for Burren and Yanan and then a bit of a home upset with Yadong losing!

    Could be a important night with it a lot less likely of people making similar picks with it being a lot more up in the air than normal.
