    If over 50% thought JMM won, then how could 50% claim he didn't? That doesn't add up.

    But once again:

    This thread doesn't need to turn into a JMM/Pac discussion thread. We can do that somewhere else. Lets stop discussing this issue and just post the picks, so the thread will be easier for me to look through when I have to find people's picks and count all this **** up. :-D




    Enough about this, the Pac win counts.. just post your picks. I'm out.

    Knowing boxing lives and dies by the results. Might I add ,You were #1 and I #2 last year? So the TOP 2 were split and its a close fight. I wouldnt be arguing a result change if it were the other way around, though I'd disagree:good

    I take nothing away from JMM or you. I shudder at every close fight going to popular vote:-(

    I know the panel is not officially contesting it, but I saw a part of his post that says 50% of the members doesn't agree with the decission. So if that fight will not be counted because majority doesn't agree then . . . we will be creating a precedent.

    It doesn't matter now . . . because Huki said it will count . . . I'm just expressing my point.

    Huki.. cry too much. A close fight is not a robbery, definitely should be counted. What if I bet Money on Pac??? Is that mean your not gonna Pay me because you thought JMM won???:hi:


    Here's my Pick: I Previously pick Katsidis. But Now I change my mind.

    Casa close UD
    Andrade KO in 5

    Money and fun are two different things. With money on the line, obviously you would have to go with the decision of record to the letter without question. In a league predicting the outcomes of fights for fun, not only is the line a bit vaguer as to whether the goal in the first place is ostensibly to correctly pick the official outcome of record or the actual outcome as perceived by the majority of participants, it also doesn't matter because the stakes are lower, or more accurately - they are in a different arena. With only bragging rights on the line, it does become very important how you as an individual scored this fight (hopefully with little to no bias) - because neither those who picked and scored it for Pac nor those who picked and scored it for JMM are going to cease their bragging for a long time to come, anyhow.

    Katsidis UD close
    Andrade T/KO 8



    I actually think Casa would be the more dominating fighter come fight night, but I predict he's gonna get a bum decision.
