  • Ok gents, so I'm just having a resupply and recovery pitstop at home then I'm off in the camper again Thursday. Figuring I probably won't have time to get the updating done but it'll only take 10 mins to throw up a Pick Em thread for the Vegas card on Saturday... Question is which fights to include?

    Main is obviously going in and my inclination is towards Magsayo vs Ceja... could be a real nice fight that one... obvious third choice (if we need a third) would be Castro vs Escandon but Oscar's done nothing in 5 yuears except get knocked out a bunch of times and the odds kinda reflect that reality

    ... I'm just wondering if it might not be more fun to have the past prime (and indeed past relevence) match-up between Vicious Vic and the ghost of The Ghost.... if nothing else we at least got relative close odds on that one, but I suspect it'll end up a question of which of em has faded the worst more than anything.

    Anyways... input invited from all, if I don't get any second opinions we'll just run with Pac vs Ugas and Magsayo vcs Ceja but if a few peoples really want either of the other two in I really got no objections. I'll aim to put the thread up in maybe 4 or 5 hours either way.

    Make your feelings known gents...

      I'd leave Castro vs Escandon out and include Friday's Rakhimov vs Ogawa. I'd also leave Ortiz vs Guerrero in, that should be a sort of sad fun to watch...

      • Ortiz-Guerrero is the only fun fight on the undercard. I say include it.

          Rakhimov vs Ogawa's a good one but I was a little put off by it being a Friday fight from a timezone that leaves not much time for everyone to get their picks in. Turns out it looks like it's been postponed anyway though, so it's kinda moot.

            Koba, let’s add the Victor Ortiz vs Robert Guerrero fight. Castro vs Escandon isn’t worth it. I really am interested to see Robert vs Victor , betcha it’ll be a damn blood bath. Both have been out, but were once an incumbent site for us. Let’s do this!

              Oh - I had missed the postponement. Let's go with the other three, then...

                I'm undecided between an early KO win for Ortiz and a draw!

                  A draw is more likely. Those two has-beens that never were have no chance of ever rising up the ranks again and likely won't risk getting hurt at this point in their lives. Hell, Ortiz wouldn't do it when Maidana gave him hell way back in 2009!
