**** Kirk's Championship Boxing Prediction League 2016 ****

1) if it was not highlighted in yellow people would miss the pick.

2) you made the pick on time.

3) the result stands.

4) I'm off to bed now, it's late over here. Hopefully by the time I awaken you have accepted defeat.

5) I should be locked up

 

It's also not sour grapes over a wrong pick. I know you're MOSTLY trolling here Luf. But yeah. 5/6 of the top 10 that did pick sided with the loser, and it's pretty much a given that had everyone else gotten their picks in time they'd have likely done the same(most of them at least). 4 people in the top 10(in a very close race with the year winding down)get a boost simply because a fight happened much earlier than expected.... That's what this is about.

 

Not necessarily. Blade would have picked Khonco and given that he was in better form going into this fight, and I was inclined to pick Simp for the win, too. Missed picks happen...mostly for ill. But on the rare chance that someone benefits from it, then so be it.

I think it should stand, but whatever Pinoy decides is cool by me. Ultimately, he's the one to make the call.

 

Can anyone tell me if my Joyi pick was legit?

 

Your pick was on time. South African SuperSport TV posted the result on their twitter when the fight ended (I posted the tweet on pg 634). Other twitter posts confirm that the fight started more than an hour after I posted my pick.

 

Not true at all mate. Joyi is far from the fighter he once was and has recently been knocked out twice. It's no given anyone would have picked him.

It's also no given any ie would have picked at all, not everyone picks for every fight.

If the fight was in purple that means it wouldn't have been in yellow and thus we would have the same issue.

For many years there was no early fight warning. after all I'm in England so my time zone is different to CST's for instance.

It's a valid concern for next year but for now the result has to stand I'm afraid.

 

If yellow doesn't matter why do we colour fights yellow?

 

So only the top 6 matter now? That's ridiculous.

Times aren't listed for any of the fights. The lavender thing is something CST introduced in September, and it is irrelevant to the fact that Pablinov, Zakman, Rumsfeld and I picked the winner.

In the interest of fairness, we should get credit for the correct pick that we made.

 

I didn't pick anyone in this fight, not because I didn't see it or any of the other excuses.
I simply didn't have a strong opinion on it and chose to sit it out.

The people who chose correctly shouldn't be punished here.

The pick should clearly stand.

 

I'm a grown man and don't "hate" people Ive never met on internet forums. Get over yourself.

Its quite simple. Theres literally no reason why people who made the pick should be punished.
You seem to be the only person arguing for it to be scrapped.
