    whew, Haven't even scored this weekeneds pick'em yet, but I wanted to give everyone a heads up as we have another free MMA event coming this Saturday and more picks to be made.
    Hopefully we have more ppl able to get their picks in for this card [​IMG]

    So these are only 7 fights and one non-aired fight that I have left out. If you got Showtime, you can see all the fights. (or most likely the Fight Network in Canada)

    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.

    DON'T FORGET: 3 fights are for titles, so they are 5 round match ups.
    Score your locks 1-7.

    CBS Card
    Champ Robbie Lawler vs. Scott Smith (for EliteXC middleweight title)
    Jake Shields vs. Nick Thompson (for EliteXC welterweight title)
    Thomas Denny vs. Nick Diaz
    Shayna Baszler vs. Cristiane Cyborg

    SHOWTIME Card

    Justin Eilers vs. Antonio Silva (for EliteXC heavyweight title)
    Brian Caraway vs. Wilson Reis
    Rafael "Feijao" Cavalcante vs. Travis Galbraith

    They showed Nick Thompson's win over Eddie Alvarez today on TFN. Pretty good scrap, but not indicative of what a fight with Shields will be like.

    This is a card that isn't hard to predict so the points will come down to methods and timing I guess.


    1 Robbie Lawler d. Scott Smith (R2/KO)
    2 Jake Shields d. Nick Thompson (Dec)
    6 Nick Diaz d. Thomas Denny (R2/Sub)
    3 Shayna Baszler d. Christiane Cyborg (Dec)
    7 Antonio Silva d. Justin Eilers (R1/KO)
    5 Wilson Reis d. Brian Caraway (R1/Sub)
    4 Rafael Feijao d. Travis Galbraith (R1/KO)
