Seemed like he was getting directions from his corner and then the doc chatting with him
C’mon gimme a fughin break

Mulako streaks ahead of the pack.......big score for 1st fight well done

Does anyone know what's considered a Late Knock Out in a 10 Rounder? Is it 8,9,10?

Quote you this from the rules in the OP of the masterthread

RESULT DETAIL

If you picked KO, either EARLY (1-4), MID (5-8) or LATE 9-12. (Or 1-3, 4-6, 7-10 for a 10 rounder).

I think we did have some discussion on it at the start of '19 and I'll freely admit it's arbitrary, but it we either had to make a call of make the cut off partway through the round which seemed awkward. If people would prefer 1-4, 5-7 and 8-10 we can discuss it for next year.

I'm actually quite guutted, there's been a few times over the last coupla days I've had an impluse to stick my x5 Hail Mary on Smith by KO... I kept thinking it ain't often we get an underdog that I reckon had such a good chance of winning, but I just thought it'd be - ironically - some kinda Hail Mary that might win it for Smith after being roundly outboxed.

[Citizen Koba]

Well if you divide 10 by 3(for early/mid/late) you have 3.3333.. so last minute of round 7 through the end of 10 would be considered a late KO.
Simple math. Don’t over analyze it! Lol

S'actually in the masterthread rules. It's kinda arbitrary but we went with 1-3, 4-6 and 7-10 for 10 rounders.

I can't remember where it was now - probably the 2019 pre-season discussion - but we did have a little discussion on it... one idea that actually never came up was splitting the round down though. It could potentially work I guess, cos you always get a time point for a KO but I reckon we'll stick with what we got for this year at least. Creative thinking though, man.

Not really.

I didn’t even realize that Sullivan was the one who got KOed by Lemieux.

And Joe Smith is Joe Smith. The guys a fu#king legend.

I just meant you were the only 2 out of like 50 people to pick Smith on points. He certainly isn't legendary for his boxing skills or winning on points. You nearly got a Munguia decision too. 3 minutes and 43 seconds away but Spike was just taking too much punishment. Might have been able to survive despite his best health interests had his corner not showed mercy.

Hart to win,UD,Close( x5 on Hart edit nevermind I didn't realize that Hart wasn't eligible for multiplier,if I lost my multiplier I'm good with that though)
Munguia to win, by Ko,Mid

You won't lose your x5, man, and I'm fully expecting we'll see plenty more folk doing exactly the same until we all get used to how they're used.
