PrintNew players are welcome - as we've got 9 weeks to go and there's plenty of time to catch up.
Week 1: Standings and Results Summary
We've got 3 fights listed for this week. Simply make your selections in the comments section, and we'll tabulate the results and post the standings on Monday.
Here’s the line-up for Week 2:
1.) Wladimir Klitschko vs Eddie Chambers - March 20

1.5 points for picking Klitschko to win.
8.5 points for picking Chambers to win.
b.) Will Chambers win at least an average of 3 rounds on the official scorecards?

Some people are acting like Pacquiao should be expected to have just gone, "Yeah sure, let’s do something I’ve never done before because your dad made some dumbass baseless comment."

It owuld make interesting viewing though…. Vitali stepping into the ring when Wlad is in trouble and “Ivan Drago”ing Eddie….

At least make a pick for points... :)
Think about how dumb the average person is, then realize that half of them are even dumber than that.

Exactly, you can't lose points for wrong answers
Perhaps in future versions we might penalize wrong picks, but for now there’s no penalty for guessing wrong, so everyone might as well take a guess at fights they aren’t familiar with.
