NSB PICK EM POLL: HIGA vs ROSALES

[Eff Pandas]

Big fan of Higa, but it probably is a lil early to be including him among pick ems just cuz many cats virtually never pay attention to guys this low in weight. If he becomes among the top 3 or so lil guys it'd probably make sense to include him then.

But w/e

Eff Pandas, Higa, KO, 5

And if you haven't seen this kid fight watch him. He's a pleasure to watch and since Joshua went 12 finally I think Higa might be the most notable guy with a perfect record in Boxing right now.

OK. I think we left this one long enough. While a majority of the votes cast went in favour of making a pick 'em for this fight (17:13) the number of total votes cast in favour fell short of the 20 votes I had (a little arbitrarily but with some rationale) decided would indicate sufficient player interest to go ahead.

RESULT: No pick 'em for this week.

For future votes I'll propose a similar sort of set up, although the poll will be made public and a quorum figure of roughly 50% of active players will be required to validate the poll and around 33% (and a majority) to action any results.

Was this fight cut from the telecast? Would probably be more fun if we could actually watch it.

Fellas,
Let’s skip this weekend please. Let’s keep it to major fights that are worth it. I almost feel like this is a way to mess everyone up, if anything. I appreciate the fact that you all want to keep rolling at a face pace but, let’s slow the roll this weekend please

Guys, this pick'em was canned. I know people can't read every post so I'm repeating it here for those who missed it.
NO PICK THIS WEEKEND.

Well that was kind of the point of this thread - to find out if people thought it was worth it. By our normal criteria Higa vs Rosales absolutely qualifies being a title fight between a #2 and #9 fighter in their division. Simple fact is most people would have been happy to have a lower level fight if it'd been a US broadcast between fighters they knew though, so do we go for quality or popularity?

Seems like it's about 50/50 in this case.

Lucky it was canned, I doubt many would’ve picked Rosales
