    So.... Was the Warren/Arroyo fight broadcasted in any way? A real shame if that fight wasn't recorded or broadcasted in any way.

    I liked your decision to remove Mayweather/McGregor... Should have stuck with it tbh.
    Good job adding the Shabranskyy/May though.

    I'm of the opposite mind, Slava will carve right through this bum, which is why I left it off, I considered it every time I updated the schedule and couldn't bring myself to add it, that being said, I don't have any objections to Pinoy adding it.

    @PinoyProdigy :thumbsup:I'm glad you added Machado-Morales, I mulled it over several times, I was in all likelihood going to eventually myself.

    I doubt it, let's not get caught up in the noise, if this were 2 years ago, Floyd dominates with ease and stops him, but he is 40 years old, and eventually fighters get old, and Mayweather's style relies heavily on reflexes, who's to say whether or not his reflexes have gone to hell, if Conor can cut off the ring even as well as Berto, he may have a chance, a very small one, but a chance nonetheless, he's the bigger man and the younger and by 11 years, if there's ever a remote possibility of an upset, the fight should be added.

    Which duel? Pinoy was taking on nelly in the WBK, I hadn't look over the thread when I made my picks.

    Not really. It's a lot more technique oriented than pure reflexes, guys like him and Hopkins fight into their 40s and beyond at a high level because unlike say someone like RJJ their success relies more on skill than athleticism and reflex. I don't see a remote chance of an upset here at all... McGregor is making his debut for crying out loud. There are plenty of more upset prone fights of a reasonable profile that never get added. This is a farce.... Really shouldn't be in the league. But whatever.

    His defense is reflex based, and if they're off, he can be caught, its a longshot, but its a risk I have a feeling a few players will take, I don't care if McGregor hasn't had a match before, he's still an agile big young hard hitting athlete and shouldn't be easily written off. I'm not brave enough to pick him, but for the ones who are.... I applaud its inclusion for them.
