    get the thinking caps on ladies and germs, there's a lot of fights to pick.
    I did a pick and choose for the list as there are a lot of new fighters on the undercard of the UFC fight night and there are a few relative unknown's on the Affliction card.

    So these are the 16 fights that I think are relevant and have fighters most everyone will be familiar with.

    As always here's a link to the rules etc, http://sportstwo.com/forums/MMA-Pickem-lea...as-t116833.html
    Please follow the format that the example has for making your picks.
    Lock - Fighter - Method - round
    11 - B.J. Penn - Sub - Rd2
    10 - Lyoto Machida - Dec
    8 - Wanderlei Silva - KO - Rd3


    New comers are always welcome to join the league and make some predictions.


    Here are the fights

    Affliction:Banned
    -Fedor Emelianenko vs. Tim Sylvia
    -Josh Barnett vs. Pedro Rizzo
    -Andre Arlovski vs. Ben Rothwell
    -Matt Lindland vs. Fabio Negao
    -Renato "Babalu" Sobral vs. Mike Whitehead
    -Gary Goodridge vs. Paul Buentello

    -Jake O'Brien vs. Cain Velasquez
    -Anthony Johnson vs. Kevin Burns

    Sorry guys should have mentioned it. Anytime we run two cards at the same time, rank your for the total number of fights listed.
    in this case 16 [​IMG]
    More points can be had that way and everyone loves to score (sexual innuendo intended [​IMG] )

    Garry Goodridge is replacing Aleks Emelianenko in the fight vs Paul Buentello.

    If everyone is able to change their picks for the fight, I'll count it.

    If not, I'll skip the fight and adjust everyone's locks accordingly, making it 1-15.

    Ok, I totally forgot about picking the fights. It is currently the end of round 1 between Burns and Athony Johnson I just started at halfway of the first. If i canèt bet on it ok. Ok, well I saw the decision of the Anthony Johnson fight and i guessed wrong. It can count.

    The Credeur fight wasn't on TV so you're good there, CB was almost everyone's pick and well AJ got screwed.. or should I say Poked out of a win so I'll count'em all.. except the Vitor/Terry Martin fight.. can't let you pick both fighters to win [​IMG]

    I'm protesting the Anthony Johnson tko, they screwed him, and I put big buck's Johnson's way [​IMG] . That does have to show how sensitive an eyeball is though, dude got punched in the face pretty hard a couple of time's this fight, and nothing happen's. Get's poked hard in the eye, and is down for the count.

    Moustacheagatti blew that fight. I mean, he warned Burns twice about eye-poking.

    I guess maybe he thought AJ was tired and was looking for a way out, but still. Should've been overturned and ruled a no contest.

    Other than the Vera/Andy fight, I really enjoyed UFN 14.

    definitely a fight that should be ruled a no contest by the althetic commishion.

    Vera reminded me of Mike Swick and his first fight at 170.. hopefully he'll adjust accordingly to 205.
    That or he was scared of losing a 3rd fight in a row and being cut and just wanted to win.
