OK Gentlemen, apologies for the slight delay in getting this weeks pick 'em up and the more significant backlog in getting the leaderboard up to date... hardware issues at my end have left me having to work with a laptop that probably last saw the light of day when folk were still wetting their drawers over the millennium bug and is held together, metaphorically, with string and duct tape. Hopefully be back up and running within the next coupla days, but until then thanks for your patience, and good luck with this weeks pick 'em.

Regards

ALLVAREZ K/O LATE


Had to change my mind.
I hope it doesn't backfire on me.
It's a hard fight to pick Imo.
Who knows I will probably change again before the fight.

I edited this at 6:04 pm EST. Reason I’m editing this is bc I think Kov is gonna be fired up. He is going to fight with frustration and anger, which is usually a bad thing, which he will use to try and knock the block off of Alverez’ shoulders. Note this; if he doesn’t KO Eleider within 6 rounds, he’s done! Mark my words! I really wanna se Eleider Alvarez whoop Kov, but I don’t think ha has a good chance until after rounds 4-6. We shall see.
Koba-Grozny; Otrocubiche please take note in my Friday edit! Thanks gents
