    I'm not sure how much it matters. Most people had pretty much the same picks.

    FightBeat Prediction League - Round Eleven. Cotto Vs Clottey...your picks please

    Sorry guys, didn't have the time to write up a big thing for u with the youtube links and stuff, but the fights for round 11 are here. I didn't include any friday night fights as I was a bit late posting so it gives your more time to get you predictions in.

    As always, if any of the fights below changes please let me know asap. Good luck to all!

    Here are the rules once again:

    (1) You CANNOT change a prediction - I will take only your first post with your predictions, make sure and double check what you post is what you are actually predicting.

    (2) No editing posts. Any evidence of editing your predictions means you're a cheating little fooker and no one likes a cheating little fooker, so you will be disqualified

    (3) Please post your predictions before the deadline, in this case the deadline is saturday before 6pm, I'll go by board time.

    (4) You can predict in as many rounds as you want to, leave and come back as you wish, although obviously it makes sense to post predictions every round if you want to accumalate enough points and have a decent shot at winning!


    Those are the rules...Shimples!

    How it works:

    The points system works as follows:

    3 Points for predicting the correct winner

    6 Points for predicting the correct winner and the correct method of victory

    10 Points for predicting the correct winner, the correct method of victory and the correct round/type of decision

    20 Points for predicting a draw correctly. I will not differentuate between a standard draw and a technical draw. As long as the official result is a draw and you predicted it, you get 20 points my son. No Contests will not count as draws before anyone asks, however, if you happen to correctly predict a No Contest then I will report you to the relevant authorities, because that shit is fixed...lol

    There are now a potential 75+ points available for correctly predicting all five fights 100% correct under the Five Fight Slam rule. So that means correctly predicting the right fighter, the right method of victory and the correct round/UD or SD in ALL FIVE fights. Sounds hard to do? It fucking is! But get it once and that could be all you need to win the Title!

    If any of the five fights are called off and there are less than five fights in one round because of this, then the Five Fight Slam bonus will not be available, even if you predict the remaining four fights 100% exact.


    For ease of tallying up everyones predictions, please don't write an essay because no one wants to read it, just keep it simple like the example below

    If you pick Floyd to beat Hatton by 10th round KO put your prediction down as

    Floyd KO 10 Hatton

    I will make no differences between a one punch knockout, a corner stoppage, bla bla, it all comes under KO. In the event of a between rounds stoppage, I will count a correct round prediction as being the round before or after, for example, if Hattons corner pulls him out between rounds 10 and 11, anyone who predicted Floyd KO 10 Hatton or Floyd KO 11 Hatton would get 10 points.

    If you pick Floyd to win a unanimous decision over Hatton, please put your prediction down as

    Floyd UD Hatton

    Make sure you specify as to whether its a UD or a SD as if you get it correct it will give you the full 10 points, where as just saying "Floyd wins on points" would only get you 6. For the benefit of the rules, and to not be a petty twat, there is no difference between a majority decision and a split decision in this game.

    With regards to TECHNICAL DECISIONS, I have decided to keep the rule in place where a technical decision will count as the type of technical decision it is, as we had with the Khan fight in the first round, it ended in a Technical UNANIMOUS Decision, so anyone who predicted a Khan UD got 10 points.

    Now onto the important stuff.....

    I agree, but that's what also makes it tougher for somebody to come from behind. I'm going to have make some bolder pics and hope they come through now as there's only one round to go.

    Yep. I guarantee you we both have all 5 correct winners.

    For the love of God let me get lucky and nail a couple correct rounds so I can gain a bit back on you! :fightme:

    FightBeat Prediction League - 12th and final round! Klitschko Vs Chagaev...

    PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THAT THERE ARE FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS TO PREDICT IN THIS ROUND

    Well we have come to that stage, one more hurdle, one more round to decide who is the best predictor on FightBeat...

    Salaco currently leads the table, so it is the chance to seal his legacy, or one last chance for the chasing pack to snatch the title out of his hands. Can anyone do it? We will find out!

    I would like to thank everyone who has taken part in this competition so far, it has been great, and I hope you guys have enjoyed it as well, especially those who have been here from round 1. Best wishes to all in the final round!

    Head says Klitschko, but I think Chagaev has a decent chance, he has power and can box pretty well, although its a shame he has been out so long..I'd be very surprised if its turns out as straightforward as klitschko-ibragimov

    Just seems mighty risky to make such a pick in round 12. I'm going the other way with Wlad, but by UD because I think Chagaev is good enough to last.

    I'll make my picks after I go get some lunch.
