-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 10 doubles and 6 triples to use throughout the year. If you forget how many you have left, check the leaderboard in the master thread. Every player also has 3 x5 special multipliers which can be only be used on an underdog (+100 or greater) fighter.

If I could ask one of the mods to kindly sticky this thread and remove anything else Pick Em related except the 2021 masterthread, be greatly appreciated. And thanks once again for your help gentlemen.

A humble advice for those who missed the bus: always post your picks early. You can still change them in the following days, and in the worst scenario (namely, forgetting the fights, or being late at the weekend) at least something remains there to represent your choices.
He had caught Covid in the weeks prior to the first fight, that could have been a reason... Still, he was battering Yabuki until he got stopped (prematurely, IMO).
Mmm. I think I had heard that actually but I'd forgotten. Makes sense.
And gutted I missed Kenshiro too... fan of the kid and I figured he'd likely flatten Yabuki this time round. Not sure it was bad preparation or what but I don't think he was himself in the first fight for whatever reason.

Ah balls. Been mega busy all week and running around since this a.m clean forgot about the Kyoto card although it looks like I ain't alone. Dubai fight ain't all that far away either now I reckon... literally just walked through the door now so I mighta already started for all I know
