    Better get it in now cos I'm gonna be out most of today and ain't getting back till late...

    Now then gonna take a leap on this one. Not at all sure Marshall takes this but I do think she's better and certainly more dangerous than anyone Shields has fought before - and it ain't like Shields has never been KDd or has an impermeable defense. Plus y'know UK fighter, DAZN card... I think it's worth rolling the dice.

    Plus with only about 10 weeks left in the year I ain't sure how many better chances are gonna come up to use a x5.. Kyoguchi maybe against Kenshiro on the 1st, Choco against Gallo perhaps? Even maybe Zurdo against Bivol given Zurdo's likely to come in 15+ Lbs heavier (though I don't believe that'll save his ass)

    Mayer DEC CLOSE
    Marshall DEC CLOSE x5
    Haney DEC CLEAR x3

        Exactly the same things I am thinking about right now! Not enough fights, where the underdog really has a chance, to use 5x on.

          They do say great minds think alike Mikey, don't they?..

          Incidentally do you get my reply to your PM some weeks back regarding your ideas for next years' Pick Em... wasn't sure cos you never answered back and it's become clear to me that some of my other PMs to people haven't always gone through. In any event I just wanted to say it sounds like a great project and you got my full support with it however it turns out.

            Yes, sorry about that. I even started writing an answer and then kind of stopped and days have passed. So as you can see I am horrible at keeping in touch
            I will probably answer you properly now that you mentioned it, but in short thank you for your expressed support

                      Yeah I wasn't actually sure but it works either way. Whichever one is favourite the other certainly has a good chance. One to a bit careful with tho because I suspect we'll see judging slightly favouring El Gallo again.
