That's not a bad idea. I haven't thought about that aspect of the scoring a lot



I save a copy of the thread and poll at the time the first bell rings, and base everything on that copy. In my saved version of the poll, 91 of 92 people picked Usyk. The 10 other votes in the live poll came after I saved and weren't counted.

ok thx for responding maybe their could be a vote on the scoring thing or maybe too late?

I second that motion. That’s not a bad idea at all...

Maybe we can have a vote if its not too late.

That’s entirely up to bro bob. He’s the one that would have to put in the work on It.

If it’s an easy thing to do then I don’t see why he can’t make it happen.

I think that the best way to tweek the scoring and give more credit to detail is to bring back the rare pick bonus in some form.

It could be something as simple as an extra 5-10 points for a pick chosen by 10% or less of the posters.

If you look at most fights, they wind up as decisions. And stoppages are often crystal clear.

That's just more math and it won't really separate the scores.

Rare picks will and it is less work.

Would have to think about that but yea more points for tougher picks(like this week)seems to make sence.

Leaderboard will be updated tonight after work

Meanwhile, what should the next fight be? Is Garcia-Lipinets a good enough matchup?

Only the type victory will be interesting there because Garcia is expect to win by far.
