    Actually your votes do count. they take up 50% of my opinion. I make my own predictions but some of them dont come out in the final results...since i have to pick upsets and go over fight circumstances. I picked Max Baer to knockout Ernie Terrell but in march madness it didnt happen! same with douglas-wills

    Ok, so the forum counts for 50%, and you count for 50%.

    So if Fighter A beats fighter B by say a 6-3 vote, that is 50%, and your vote would count for the other 50%. Is this correct? By this scoring system, you pick the winner in all cases except a clean sweep where you disagree. That makes it a draw.

    Its your thread, but I think it would be better if the panel should make up 66% of the pick, with you being the key swing vote on the close calls. This would allow for reasonable upsets.

    It will be interesting to see if you over rule a majority vote on Klitschko vs Charles, and pick Charles the winner.

    Having said that, it is a quality thread. Thanks for putting in the hard work. I will be getting married this weekend, and on vacation for the next week. Maybe I will be back for the semifinals.

    Good to see i'm not the only one having Bowe over Foreman, although i can certainly see a case for both sides of the argument.
