NSB Pick 'em #3 - Murat Gassiev vs Yunier Dorticos, Jan 20

Well... he cut it fine, but Murat did me fine. Fight went the way many of us predicted. Shame though cos I was actually rooting for Yunier despite picking Gassiev for the win... still the Cuban showed the heart of the champion. Props to both men for showing fantastic will and giving us an early FOTY candidate.

Well, it's the Knocc Out, definition "Original baby gangsta" Approach me like you hard, motherf*cker, I'ma bank ya Shank ya, with my f*ckin' shank, if I have to

25 seconds and my pick would have been correct Damn

BETTING ODDS:This is viewed as a pretty close fight according to most - Gassiev is the slight (1.5/1 to 2/1) favorite. No bonus multipliers You only need to post in this thread to indicate if you'd like to use one of your 2X or 3X multipliers. EG. If you are using no multiplier (1X), and not picking a draw, just voting in the poll puts you in. I will assume you want 1X unless you post otherwise. NOTES: -Draws are worth 120pts. A perfect pick without a multiplier is 30pts. -CLOSE is =12 pts difference, or anything equivalent to 116-112 on all three cards or wider. -If you'd like to change your pick before the fight starts, post in this thread to do so. Ideally tag me so that I don't miss it. -2X doubles your points and 3X triples your points. Everyone starts with 5 doubles and 3 triples to use throughout the year. If you forget how many you have left, check the leaderboard in the master thread. Sticky me -MEGA- Yo! Come on!

Minnie boy, just vote in the poll and you are good. Thx got it boy

I got Gassiev ko late its only 11:30 central(about 2-3 hours before fight) so I hope this is not too late Minnie boy, just vote in the poll and you are good.

Tough fight to call. Both are KO artists with an "0" in the L column. Going to go with Gassiev as the hometown favorite on this one. I wouldn't be too surprised if Dorticos won by a upset KO either. Gassiev by KO rounds 5-8 is my call.

Frankieclutch, 1x

john l Gassiev by late ko its only 11:30 central so I hope thios still counts

So hard to call.... Rolled the dice and went for Dorticos by KO 5-8... I doubt this one goes the distance though... I feel you. That's the other result I believe would happen but I went Gassiev KO 9-12.

.. ... thanks, that was a great watch. 'murat you're so handsome' :lol1: He seems like a really shy, nice guy. That turns into a killer in the ring. i still cant believe hes only just 24. dude looks the same age as Ortiz lol.
