    Haha jokes on me I guess..just did my picks. Wasn't planning on staying up anyway.

    Won't be watching it myself but there's a couple of interesting fights, not worth being wrecked in work on Monday though!

    To be honest it wasn't even worth being wrecked on a Sunday in my eyes. Some potentially good fights but can't handle the regular 5 or 6am finishes anymore. Unless it's a big event.

    Hard event to call, don't know half of the fighters on it.

    Same. This is either going to go very well or very, very badly for me.

    Seems to have gone very well for me! Tied first :D for that event with 10 correct picks

    10 correct picks is me anyway could have been even better had Reneau got the decision also Riggs/Camozzi don't rate either knew one would be a big letdown gambled with Riggs

    A tie for first place after last nights event.

    Well done Wrongway1985 & Mr. Manager. Honours even between ye. Good pickin!

    Second time on top for Wrongway1985. When he's on form he's on form!!! On the other side of the coin, when he misses, he crashes out in spectacular style. Only messing mate, WELL DONE!!

    Next weeks event (Bisping vs Silva) will be the last for this period and we will have our first bi-monthly winner. Depending on results, its realistically within reach of anyone in the top 5 or 6, and anyone else in the top ten has a decent outside shot at it if a few of the top boys have a howler!!!

    As always, check yere picks as close as possible to the actual event. I noticed a few regulars didn't get their picks in this week. Nothing worse than missing out because you forgot to click ''SAVE''.

    Same here. I getting a decent enough amount of winners on average per event. But the have only 6 perfects so far.

    Picking the round and/or the MOV is where the big points are.

    I forgot this one... Again...

    Its tough when you know you got what it takes to be the best........

    If I carried my previous form forward I'd rinse the lot of ye!
    :pac:

    :pac:

    If it's any consolation, I may as well not have.

    Although I expect to really hit form the last week of December:pac:

    Pffft. Until you earn the trophy for No. 1 pick in the world you can't moan about previous form :p



















    In case it was unclear I won that trophy last year :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,516 ✭✭✭Hoki


    I'd recommend everyone picks 3 or 4 events at a time. It only takes a few minutes. That way, if you've forgotten to do your picks the night before at least you'll have provisional picks done - I understand fights change in the weeks coming upto fights but getting some points is still better than getting zero points.

    Just joined there :) Poor enough start to the year with 32/58

    Only a matter of hours to go until this event (Bisping vs Silva) kicks off. Get yer picks in.

    This is the last event of this period (Jan/Feb).

    Any new players feel free to join!! Instructions are on page one of this thread.

    Pick em really adds to it when watching the prelims.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,682 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    Missed the first 4 fights, bollocks.

    Only just woke up after a heavy night myself managed to get the pick in for the parke fight though, Khabilov decision.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Missing on Teymur probably cost you a few points but doubt many points from the other two early fights. Guessing Khab decision was a pretty popular pick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,539 ✭✭✭John_D80


    This lad Brussels Sprout must have a crystal ball at home!! He's 7 from 7 tonight so far.

    Well done lad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,567 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Having an absolute nightmare so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,781 ✭✭✭ASOT


    I'm 4/4 two perfects, missed the first three though.
