FightBeat Prediction League II. Round two...Results and Standings

First off, my sincerest apologies to everyone participating in the league for the lack of update. As I mentioned in the stickied thread, I've had issues with my ISP recently, as well as being unexpectedly busy, and just haven't been able to get on here for long enough recently to update everything. Very sorry people, and it seems to have all been resolved now so shouldn't happen again.

Sounds strange talking about it now since it seems like an age ago, but round two was very interesting. When I put the fights up, I had a feeling it was going to be a pretty straightforward and high scoring round, with a few people possibly achieving the Full House Bonus, but with Cotto and Cunningham getting the stoppage and Sylvester and Karmazin drawing, the "safe UD" bet turned out to not be so wise after all!

Prediction of the round goes to Bob N Weave who was the only poster to get a 10-pointer, and it came in the main event when he predicted Cotto KO 9! Congrats to Bob N Weave, who was also the highest scorer for Round Two, with 13 points, which also moves him four points clear of Boss in second place! Is this where Bob starts to pull away from the pack? Or will this spur on the chasers to keep up? It's definitely a more competitive start than last year, and our reigning champion Salaco currently finds himself in joint 7th place, 14 points off the pace! I do remember him clawing back a similar deficit last time out though so I'm sure the leaders will still be looking over their shoulders!

I'd like to also give a shout out to Erratic, who took a gamble with predicting a draw, which very nearly came off, just picked the wrong fight! If correct it would have landed him in joint 2nd place, sometimes it's worth taking that risk!

Unfortunately Mexican Wedding Shirt made his prediction as one of the fights on the German Card had already started so his predictions cannot count. Entrants who did not participate in Round Two were Joemul, bpg, Joe King, barneyboy2001 and mikE. Hopefully they will post in Round Three. Debutants for Round Two were Erratic, ILLUMINATI and *Z*, still ten rounds to go so plenty of time to catch up people!

Damn I have a long ways to go. I hate you.

 

Thanks for the reminder.

 

Bob is not pulling away anything. He got lucky with a fluke round prediction. His luck will only take him so far but hey all the power to him. Enjoy it while you can !!!
