Re: S2 MMA GRAND PRIX FINALS (Black Mamba vs Celtic Fan) If anyone wants to challenge someone to a fight, go ahead and do it. Then PM Speeds your picks. Speeds can post the match ups, I'll score'em
Re: S2 MMA GRAND PRIX FINALS (Black Mamba vs Celtic Fan) Yeah he's thrown up some nice scores.. but then again he's done it during the regular season too. Mamba knows his MMA.

Re: S2 MMA GRAND PRIX FINALS (Black Mamba vs Celtic Fan) COME OOOOOOOON STEVE BRUNO!!! almost took Loughran myself, but switched it up at the last min.. will that bite me in the ass? I'm surprised everyone else took rees.. Bruno has faced better competition IMO. IMO Corey Hill could be beaten, Dale Hart has moved to Vegas and is training with 4 different camps there to improve, but I gave Hill the benefit of the doubt. Tough call though.
Re: S2 MMA GRAND PRIX FINALS (Black Mamba vs Celtic Fan) now that that picks are in and Mamba and I both have Kos, I just wanna say WAR Yoshida!! I think Kos will 'wet blanket' a win, but I'd love to be wrong for this fight
Re: S2 MMA GRAND PRIX FINALS (Black Mamba vs Celtic Fan) "Wet Blanket" a win? I hope that means he will knock a fool out.
Re: S2 MMA GRAND PRIX FINALS (Black Mamba vs Celtic Fan) wholly crap! talk about prophetic!!! you're boy came through in a big, big way Big Frame.
and here's the final results of S2's first MMA Grand Prix. This was loads of fun and I hope everyone enjoyed making picks and participating vs an opponent. I think it added a great dimension to the league. In the 3rd place match up, Big Frame holds off Valo35 62-56 Both has the same number of picks correct (5), and Big Frame lost his #8 lock, but he also had 3 picks nailed down correctly and that was the difference maker. For the Title match up, The first Grand Prix Champion is, well, me! In a close fight with Black Mamba, Celtic Fan won 78-72. Mamba had 6 correct to my 8 correct, but he nailed the Credeur fight and did well in the round and method to keep it close. Good fight Mamba. Thanks to everyone who participated. Now lets get ready for Season 3 of the MMA league as it begins Saturday!!!
Really was a fun one, congrats to the top three you guys all did great. Can't wait to see everyone next season.
