This took me a good 2-3 hours to do. I had the free time so what the hell lol

 

John, I have to tell you...when I found out my bracket formula had Page meeting holmes in the first round....It literally made me laugh out loud. It was all random. But this is each fighter at there best, and page finally gets his shot here!!

 

IF you look at the bracket, its If Douglas gets by the first round, he can easily end up in the Sweet 16 vs sonny liston

 

Thank you for your picks, both have you have as high as # 12 and # 14 seeds upsetting!

 

keep em coming Pony

 

Anyone else a little concerned for joe frazier in the opening round?



- Thanx John, i hope to see you and your predictions for every following round. it wont start getting real exciting till were down to sweet 16.
