    Looking at the standings I'd say there's a very good chance of that happening. Last year @Drinquor overhauled me from -4 wins / +4 losses behind at this stage, so the top 13 are all close enough to realistically have a chance of winning and the gaps in that group haven't been widening over the last few months.

    In 2017 @Drinquor was too far ahead going into the final weekend, but the previous year between @UnleashtheFURY and @PinoyProdigy was still tight going into the last weekend IIRC.

    There might be some movement this coming busy weekend.
    My goal initially is also top 10 as this is my first time.
    We are only half way. I take this like a marathon, as long as I stay in the pack for 3/4 of the race, it's not too late to be aggressive in the last quarter.
    It's all come down to luck on some of the small obscure 50-50 cards.

    the benefit of being quite high in the league at this stage is if you see a potential upset that everyone around you hasnt seen, you can take the risk and if you lose, you're still up there.

    True. I think I'm only 4 or 5 points away from the top spots.
    Another analogy is this is kind of a game of golf.
    Greg Norman had 6 points lead to the Open final round and still lost it. Plenty of time:)

    i have no idea what a "Greg Norman" is in all honesty :lol:. but if Leicester City can win the Premier League, then anything is possible.

    As it is my first time my goal was to actually stick to actually making picks for a while, half way there and I think I've only missed 2 or 3 so I'm very happy with that. If I kept my top 10 place at the end of the year I'd be chuffed to pieces although I'd expect to closer to top 20 than top 10.

    Wow, why are people sleeping on Manzanarez? He's every bit the young Mexican monster that Muniga is. His performance against Gamaliel Diaz, while against a faded fighter, showed him demonstrating elite skills. The perfect left hook to the body he folded a pro like Diaz with was a statement maker, in my opinion.

    Gesta is a solid fighter but is going to be at a side disadvantage in the ring here, and I really do think Manzanarez is a stud. I've seen Gesta struggle mightily and even be knocked down against mediocre pressure fighters with no teeth. Manzanarez is all teeth. Kid really reminds me of Miguel Berchelt, even suffering a similar upset loss early on that they quickly avenged.
