This week for once the Rummy's list and Kirk's list are identical. :shock:

That almost never happens.

I wish it did. Being able to copy/paste my picks from one thread to the other without adding or subtracting anything is a breeze.

 

IB you lazy motherf... :bart

But you're right, it never happens. And if it looks like it there's always one tiny little difference wich causes you to miss an easy pick in one of the leagues when copy/pasting.

 

:nod

Clearly the answer is for me to master the dark arts and gain possession of PinoyProdigy's brain every Monday so that we are in sync.

 

The power of The Schwartz is very effective over the weak minded :smoke

 

WBK picks in.

Big gamble on Periban. To risky for my taste, and I actually think Bika is a quite safe bet.

 

OOooooo.... :wooo
Look at that, we have a FIGHT on our hands here!

 

Bika will need to put everything into cracking that nut. He probably isn't getting a decision over an exciting unbeaten Golden Boy kid on a GBP card. He needs to knock him out. He definitely can - Periban has leaky defense and has been dropped and hurt by lesser opponents and of course Bika is heavy-handed and possesses the right mindset to grind someone down with both clean and dirty methods...but his reputation is sure to precede him and if the Periban camp is the least bit competent they will formulate a game plan that completely avoids infighting altogether and eliminates the possibility of Bika's headbutts, elbows, rag-dolling, or legal uppercuts to play a part. Periban will probably box on his bike on the outside. Granted, Bika has improved his boxing ability greatly since hooking up with Kevin Cunningham - but he still isn't a master craftsman from long range. Pasting a willing target like Sjekloca (come-forward guy with feather fists, he was almost made to order for Bika) doesn't make you Floyd Mayweather all of a sudden. If Periban refuses to engage him, there isn't much Bika can do and even if he's the aggressor and lands the better shots he's likely to get shafted if the judges are brought into play.

 

And now the smileys are glowing :blood

Or is it just me?

 

:think :rasta

 

Won't matter. It won't make it past my George pick. I hope. Although I also hope that George gets KO'd, so it is definitely a conflict of interest on my part. It's all about whether karma weighs in now.

Anyway, Periban can hit that angry Australian as he comes flying in. He's got some kind of ungodly reach advantage. It's a test for the kid. Aside from getting beat up Sierra, modest defense, and a questionable chin, it's a solid pick.

 

Open workouts.......
