    Yeah, usually, but its a pattern with me, I have a bad very stubborn tendency to go with the guy I genuinely think will win, in spite of the fact I think there could be a robbery, that and I have a bad track record when I try to play cynically and predict which matches will actually end up robberies.

    I've been starting to look at it that way with my picks now, haven't quite lost all faith just yet but I'm bound to start leaning that way with some fights, can't help but think cynically with the constant robberies

    Its a real pain in the ass when you go that route, but most on here play it safe and pick the home fighter, although because I go with the guy I think will win, he gets robbed, it make me bitter and cynical then the next fight I go with the home guy, it backfires on me, and it becomes a vicious cycle.:lol:

    Its best to not try to be a mind reader when it comes to who's getting robbed or who's not, but its almost unavoidable.

    I have started to take the possibility of a robbery into my picks now. I've lost faith in all judges for now

    For fun/trivia:

    Ever wondered how a competitor who always picks the favourite on here (i.e. the majority pick) would do in the league?

    @kirk @CST80 @Drinquor @nellybc @PinoyProdigy @JordanK2406 and others

    I totalled up the picks of the majority throughout the year, and this hypothetical player would have a record of:

    156-53

    and be in 7th equal place with @DanielDimov

    First place is 7 wins ahead of the majority, 10th place is 5 wins behind, and 20th place is 12 wins behind.

    I don't think Charlo would get Heiland that early, Heiland is a tough guy and has never been stopped.

    Excited for the fights tonight... Really good head to action between the NYC Broner/Garcia card and the Jones/Cormier II UFC bill in California. Just a great night all around for combat sports.

    Morning coffee and watching/scoring Shiming/Kimura. Good fight so far, getting me pumped for the live action later today!

    Yeah, that sucks. Hopefully they can get compensated in some way for their training camps, having to hire sparring partners etc.

    Any word on when Framton vs Gutierrez could be rescheduled for?

    Gary Russell Jr, upon hearing how slippery the shower is, would then duck the shower in favour of rematches with Patrick Hyland and Oscar Escandon. :sisi1
