Conlan-Lopez is where the money is at. That's good as a single bet and then parlay the other two.

Roll the tapes.

PICK EM CREW
I was initially thinking 6, 3, 1 but having let things run on this long without making a decison I think I'm gonna have to go for aless radical cut.

Final decison 8 x2, 4 x3, 2 x5...

In additon whilst we're going to stick with the 2022 scoring system of 20/10/10 in acknowledgement of the widely expressed sentiment that perfect picks should bve rewarded more highly there's gonna to be a points bonus at the end of the year for the players with the most perfect picks. I haven't quite worked out the full detail yet but I'm envisaging something like a 200 point bonus for the player(s) with the most perfect picks scaling down to somethiong like a 20 point bonus for the players ranked 8th or 10th by number of perfect picks.

i'm thinking that the last paragraph won't be happening this year seeming as the scaling down bit never got finalised?

I'm still in the preliminary phase of my head scratching.

For starters, I won't consider the Okolie fight, I don't like Okolie's inconsistency.

Initially I wanted to parlay Lopez and Wood (I'm not sold on Conlan yet, and I believe that Wood could win a decision if he tightens up his defense; he was winning hands down in the first fight before getting starched by Lara with one punch). Then I thought "Conlan will be given a hometown decision". Today I thought "Lopez will KO Conlan to avoid getting robbed".

Bah... I'll have to think hard about the whole thing...

I have to watch tape.

I have to watch tape.

A tempting one is Lopez vs Conlan ending inside the limit, whoever the winner. It's 2.80/1 right now.

I'm still intending to give a points bonus for the 10 players with the most perfect picks. I've already started on a stick tally recording everyone's used multipliers and perfect picks but I'm only up to Makabu vs Jack so far so there's a way to go yet.

What I'm thinking is a sliding scale something like 200, 160, 130, 100, 80, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20. ****. In fact let's nail it at that so everyone knows where they stand.
