I like the "negative points" idea, though I dispute the idea of not losing if you get the outcome right, wrong fighter.

Someone could escape by saying UD all the time, (which is what the outcome of most fights are) and not lose a point, whereas someone with a bit more dare would be penalised. Why should someone lose a point for having an incorrect KO guess, but not lose a point for guessing an incorrect points winner, when in all likelihood it could be a shutout? (For an example, imagine someone not losing a point for picking Lacy to beat Calzaghe on points... Hell, they're majorly wrong, rip that point away).

My picks later...

... I mean, really (is he still going on??) you're not getting "the right outcome", you're getting it ****ing wrong still, and deserved to be spanked like a little ***** for it.

But other than that, good idea.

actually thats a good point. kinda discourages people from taking risk. so okay, no matter what, if u get the winner of a fight wrong, u lose 1 point

Too right mate... it's a kick in the nuts, ain't it?

Actually, to make it fair, maybe you ought to factor this in for this week as well? Take a point off me for picking Gonzalez. (and didn't my pick look great for the first half of the fight?)

Okay...

I actually think Abraham will win, but The Nuff Tumper (aka Howard Eastman) assured me that Miranda will win, and he's fought both of them, so I guess he knows more than me.

-Arthur Abraham vs. Edison Miranda - Miranda TKO 11
-Jorge Arce vs. Masibulele Makepula - Arce KO 10
-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs Matthew Strode - Strode UD (yeah, let's have an upset pick!!)

i was thinking about it, and then i was like "naaaaaa"

it took like 20 mins to do the scores, it would take another 10 to do that. AND, it shouldnt make to much of a difference.

it'll just put some seperation in between us, so we arent all tied. u know?
