That's cool, but I'd recommend not editing the post again in any way after the fight, cos the edit time stamp is what we'll be using to make the call if anyone takes issue with it, just for future reference. Aside from one incident back when the CREW first took over we ain't had any accusations thrown around, but it's as well to cover your ass. And damn, man... that's some unlucky picks for your debut. Better luck next time.:boxing: No worries, understood! hahah man i couldn't believe i was 0 for 3!! I don't feel too sore really, I changed my pick from Selby because he looked so uncomfortable in the pre-fight interview. I had prograis winning by a round to be fair but very happy taylor won regardless :D I had to go with Gonzalez, I can't seem to get past what I saw in that video of Shakuur in his street fight unfortunately, I find it so hard to root for him :confused:

PICK_EM_CREW

Everyone please note that the Taylor vs RP and Selby vs Burns are earlier on Saturday. If I’m not mistaken it’s like some 2:00 EST that the card kicks off. Being in the USA I have messed up in the past and missed the cutoff with my Pick. Good luck er body! I wanna see the weigh ins b4 my picks..... Yeah good call NC... and on that note I'd like to point out that the OP of each thread includes the International standard UTC (Co-ordinated Universal Time) for each fight location, and that - in as much as possible - the PICK EMs are ordered chronologically first by UTC and then by running order...(ie headliners come after unders) in case anyone was wondering why the main fight of the evening ain't often the first Pick Em numerically. I gotta see a doctor about that damn OCD... :lol1:

Articulateboxin, Burns, DEC, Close x2 (I edited this a few hours before the fight, hope thats okay :D) Articulateboxin, Prograis, DEC, Close x2 Articulateboxin, Gonzalez, Dec, Close x3 (Oh that's a long shot :D) That's cool, but I'd recommend not editing the post again in any way after the fight, cos the edit time stamp is what we'll be using to make the call if anyone takes issue with it, just for future reference. Aside from one incident back when the CREW first took over we ain't had any accusations thrown around, but it's as well to cover your ass. And damn, man... that's some unlucky picks for your debut. Better luck next time.:boxing:

I was working all w/e, didn't see any fights, might've noticed otherwise Stupid Things I Have Done In My Life #43,291 It wouldn’t even rank on the dumbest things I’ve ever done! It’s beyond 100,000 so it doesn’t count! Cheers brother

:doh: :pat: Lol what a total dumbass I am, I even knew that about the WBSS, ffs. I was working all w/e, didn't see any fights, might've noticed otherwise Dude, no different than rest of us. I must have read that 10X (the draw) and thought about changing mine to a draw. Ha ha. In fact it wasn't until fight night I mentioned to someone I almost PICKED Draw, that it hit me. So I feel just as dumb, or pissed that I didn't remind you sooner. I was thinkin, "Oh yeah, bold pick. Play big or go home" -- Woops. Anyhow, my bad...shoulda,coulda,woulda

Ha. AND none of us caught Headbodybody picking a WBSS as a DRAW. Did we really let that slip through ? :pat: Ha ha ha... and HBX3's basically an honourary CREW dude himself (as are you) gonna be kicking himself for that one I should imagine. It's one thing to take a gamble to put yourself back in contention, but to then realise you could never have won anyway... My brother, you know that no fight in the WBSS can end in a draw right? Probably just slipped your mind. Peace :doh: :pat: Lol what a total dumbass I am, I even knew that about the WBSS, ffs. I was working all w/e, didn't see any fights, might've noticed otherwise Stupid Things I Have Done In My Life #43,291
