Goddamned it,I wasn't informed that there'd be a midweek pickem(im subscribed to the pickem,wtf)
I honestly think theres too many pickems at last minute & you should post US times for pickems taking place in different time zones,I missed the Fa vs Parker pickem Because it said Saturday pickems for all the fights which made me think there was still time to pick,but come to find out it was basically on Friday after midnight....:purity:(just vent joking that I missed the fight)
Thanks. I went with my gut.
I've seen both guys in the gyms so it was kinda tough.
But like another poster pointed out. Bohachuk gets hit too Clean and too frequently.
Bohachuk's lack of technique and non-existent defense will shorten his dream quite fast.
Great pick. As soon as I saw Adams come in with the scorpion outfit I knew he was going to win. I should have switched up quick.

OK, brother, you and koolkc107 just convinced me to go studying more videos of the two, and that made me change my pick to Adams KO mid. Indeed there's a huge difference in class between the two, and now that I have seen Bohachuk's weak technique again, I jumped off his bandwagon.
For sure I'll repent tomorrow... :lol1:
Huge props my friend.. excellent call.:beerchug:
Real good call for all those who picked Adams, I knew the upset was a decent possibility given how unproven Bohachuk was and was kinda surprised how wide the bookies had it, but I was not expecting Adeams to turn the tables on the KO machine quite so decisively. Good job I take pleasure in the underdog wins because I'm taking L after L on the Pick Ems this year... though fortunately I ain't alone.:lol1:
Man, I owe you 30 points here, too - thanks for enlightening me (together with The Champ, Asgarth). As the old song goes, "I can try with a little help from my friends". :beerchug:
Anytime.
I'm sure you'll have an insight that will help down the road. Collective knowledge always trumps individual knowledge.
Good job!
Get yourself a steak, you earned it!

Adams / KO / Late
Great pick. As soon as I saw Adams come in with the scorpion outfit I knew he was going to win. I should have switched up quick.
Good choice, man... anyhow I just put my usual peanuts in there, five fivers on each round of the second half for an Adams KO win. It will never happen, but if it does I win either 230 or 310...
Good job!

Congrats on another one!
Bohachuk looks too basic for me honestly. He just overwhelms fighters with a ton of volume, not a concussive puncher, doesnt set up his punches well and just fought stationary no defense guy recently other than brunson, but brunson isnt any good. That style looks gold versus lower level fighters, but should be exposed at a higher level.
I was suprised when they opened the odds on the KO so short. It moved now and sits at 1.9, but I still think its less likely than the decision. Adams is elusive and went 12 with Charlo. Difficult to catch clean and even then took some good uppercuts from charlo. Adams is also in proper shape, so the knockout due to getting tired and sloppy is also less likely.
Comes down to me whether Bohachuk really has top level stamina and can just put his insane pressure for 10 rounds. Adams is prone to getting outworked, but he is also able to land sneaky punches in exchanges. Bohachuk not exactly difficult to find inbetween punches, but you need to be defensively sound enough to avoid his follow up attack.
If Adams doesnt get overwhelmed and beaten up to much in the first half, he definitely has a chance to take over in the second half.
Bohachuk is definitely basic but he has a wrinkle or two. He'll throw from odd angles and at times he can be awkward.
But yeah, it's about if he can take what he dishes over a full distance. Because he is no defensive genius, relying on his offense and high workrate to mask his flaws a bit.. Gets caught flush a bit too much for my tastes too.
It could all be moot if Bohachuk is sharper than we've seen thus far tho.
