    FightBeat Prediction League II. Round one!

    OK folks, here we go! Let's see if Salaco can make a successful defence of his crown. Before I list the fights, here are the rules, with a few changes from last time out:

    Scoring system:

    3 points for predicting the correct winner

    +3 points for predicting the correct method of victory (KO, Points or DQ)

    +4 more points for predicting the correct round or type of decision (UD or SD). Please also note that I won't differentuate between a MD or a SD, they're both the same in this scoring system

    25 points for correctly predicting a draw

    0 points for predicting the wrong guy to win the fight

    So basically, to use two examples, if you predicted Mayweather to KO Hatton in round 10, you would get 10 points, if you predicted Mayweather to beat Mosley by SPLIT decision, you would get 6 points. Simples. For between rounds stoppages, I'll go by whatever boxrec says.

    Technical Decisions

    In the event of technical decisions, it will go by what TYPE of technical decision it was. We have a perfect example with last weeks fight. If you had predicted Williams to beat Cintron by SD, you get 10 points. Technical draws still count as draws. No Contests will be deemed null and void, so don't even bother predicting a NC, you won't get anything even if you're right. Plus you will be reported for match fixing... :lol:

    Bonus Points

    If you get ALL 3 fights 100% correct, basically 10pts x3, you will have achieved the Full House Bonus, and your points total will be doubled. So there is a potential 60 points on offer, even more is possible if a draw comes in amongst your predictions!

    "How many fights each round? And when will the rounds be?"

    One of the problems with the last tournament was that there was more quantity than quality, especially during quiet weeks. This time there are only 3 fights to predict instead of 5, which allows for more quality matches to predict, and less obscure matches from the outer regions of Burkina Faso. This also makes it easier to achieve the bonus points via the Full House Bonus. There may be exceptions to how many fights there are to predict in a round if there is a particuarly stacked weekend of fights.

    There will be 12 rounds of predictions, and the rounds will take place when there are decent, well-matched fights taking place. I'll make sure to give you guys a heads up when there's a round coming up. All fights are 12 rounds unless stated. Friday night fights are also included this time.

    "Anything else?"

    You can join the league or leave at any time, just be aware it will affect your standing if you miss out on points by missing rounds or joining late! Any predictions made after the fight has taken place will obviously not count. When making your prediction please simply put the winner plus your method of victory and round if you're going for a KO or DQ. For example;

    Khan KO 1

    or

    Khan UD

    And that's the rules out of the way! Let's get on with the fights:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Fight one: Michael Katsidis Vs Kevin Mitchell, interim WBO Lightweight Title, Upton Park, West Ham, UK

    No highlights available of Katsidis last fight against Escobedo, but here is the fight before that against Chavez:

    Entrants also have to upload nudie pics of their sister(s).

    Don't worry, they won't be shown to anyone. I will keep them until the contest is over. If you win nobody will see them.

    It would be cool if you included boxrec links to their respective records
