    I'm calling it now, Tao Geoghegan Hart will win the Vuelta.:deal: And I'm not kidding.

    After watching the Giro, Tour and Vuelta for years, if I had to pick to live in one of them, I think I'd choose Spain, the south of Spain to be precise. There's an enchanting, authentic and non commercial charm it has that Italy and France lack, Italy would be my second choice.

    There are a host of names that could win it and it could be a year like Horner or Cobo where a complete random ends up winning it. I'd like to see Kelderman or Angel Lopez to go well and I'm really looking our for Enric Mas to boss the mountains. Richie Porte deserves a good run and Quintana and Aru have a lot to prove.

    I think I'll retire from watching Cycling if Hart wins. Although I think he could be a good shout for the mountains jersey.

    :lol: Well brace yourself. And same here with Mas.

    Yeah, I have the same feeling, which is why I came up with Hart, a few other names that's crossed my mind are Pello Bilbao and George Bennett. Kruijswick I have a feeling will do well, and Nibali will somehow finish strong in spite of the back injury. I'm starting to think Quintana and Aru were flashes in the pan like Cunego or Olano and Zulle.

    R7: 8/25 - Isaac Dogboe vs. Hidenori Otake - 12x3 WBO World Super Bantamweight Title
    PinoyProdigy: Dogboe KO11 vs F1ght3rz: Dogboe KO 10 // 9-10
    R8: 8/25 - Raymundo Beltran vs. Jose Pedraza - 12x3 WBO World Lightweight Title
    PinoyProdigy: Beltrán SD vs F1ght3rz: Pedraza MD // 8-10 (1)

    PinoyProdigy: 73 (1) vs F1ght3rz: 77 (2)

    R9: 8/28 - Chayaphon Moonsri vs. Pedro Taduran - 12x3 WBC World Minimumweight Title
    PinoyProdigy: vs F1ght3rz: Moonsri Close UD


    I am not so sure about the Dogboe score as we both picked late rounds so i thought it would be a 10-10 as it was a stoppage in Round 1 but in the rules there is only the case the one who picked nearer to the stoppage round wins it 10-9. Correct my score if it's wrong.

    Big luck on my side this time, late switch to Pedraza, late switch to Beltran from Pinoy. I only switched to Pedraza because of the huge movement at the betting market as Pedraza was the fav pre game from being the dog earlier this weekend. For me it was a pick em fight, total 50/50 and my gut was telling me to pick Beltran but as there was such a massive movement i decided to try my luck with Pedraza.

    Good luck for the last bout.

    Any Taduran pickers fancy your chances with a shot at the People’s Championship??

    Thank you @f1ght3rz
    Can @PinoyProdigy somehow turn this around??

    PinoyProdigy: 73 (1) vs F1ght3rz: 77 (2)

    Going into the final round...

    8/28 - Chayaphon Moonsri vs. Pedro Taduran - 12x3 WBC World Minimumweight Title

    PinoyProdigy: vs F1ght3rz: Moonsri Close UD

    That last round will bring 8 months of the WBK to a close and what an amazing competition it’s been... Roll up for September...

    If anybody else wants in they only have to shout.

    Specific picks and feel the pain and suffering every weekend...

    This will be my last WBK bout in awhile. I want to focus on the league for the stretch run. But I’ll be back to reclaim what is mine one day!

    Is that Riki-Oh?

    *Booya! I guessed right from the special effects without even seeing the whole movie.

    Fully understand @PinoyProdigy

    It’s a difficult choice sometimes. I really ruins the KO chances with picking SD or MD for the differential against the UD. Or even KO 9 when you are in a sticky position.
