Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

Bad Left Hook Fight Night Prediction Standings, Week 6

These are updated from March Badness and the Klitschko-Gomez fight. We took last week off and I was sick, so I've been catching up on other stuff. Now that I have downtime, here are the updated standings:

Name W L D KO
jrok 16 1 3 1
Matt Miller 15 2 3 3
BabyBull1289 15 2 3 2
JasonTryp 14 1 2 1
keyz 13 2 2 2
DRose87 13 2 2 2
sigidy 13 2 2 3
Zocalo 13 4 3 4
3zilla 12 3 2 3
Upstait 12 3 2 2
bp 12 3 2 1
BrianBrock 12 2 2 2

sonofapsycho 5 4 1 1
bazzlad 5 2 0 1
Brett87 4 3 0 1
Calabacita 3 0 0 1
thirdslip 3 0 0 1
Ice 2 1 0 1
dervish686 2 1 0 0
ItBurnzWhenIP 1 0 0 0

 

Overall, a nice rebound couple of events after the disastrous card from Manchester the week before.

Correct Klitschko "KO" Picks: Zocalo, schraubd, Calabacita, sigidy, Ice

Two newbies (Calabacita and Ice) schooled most of us by calling this one, but it's rare that we get five overall correctly picking an actual stoppage for a "KO" pick. Way to go, peeps.

Correct Flores "KO" Picks: SC, Zocalo, bazzlad, 3zilla, Matt Miller, keyz, thirdslip, battle axe of doom, Brickhaus, schraubd, sonofapsycho, Upstait, Brett87, BabyBull1289, TXroyal, sigidy, missmanners, boxingstudent, lcollins1, DRose87

Was there every anything easier than calling Flores by UD? I might DQ him from recent predictions if he's fighting this level of talent. It's a gimme KO.

Those Who Picked JC Gomez: strike4A, sonofapsycho, Brett87

Those Who Picked JC Herrera: dervish686, sdsuaztec4, Ice

Both upset picks had their reasonings, and neither one was as bad as me picking Vanda over Duddy. BY KNOCKOUT. Vanda over Duddy!

Just for the record

Vanda hurt Duddy in the last round by going ‘balls out’. Had he flopped ‘em earlier, thrown multiple punches, that could’ve easily ended in a KO for Vanda. In the last round he showed he could hurt Duddy, and JD never showed he could hurt Vanda.

Probably says more about Duddy than Vanda. Every fight I watch of his is close, doesn’t matter who he fights. He’s like the Lleyton Hewitt of boxing. (Anyone?, Anyone?) He wins ugly but somebody’s just gonna straight kick his ass.

Moth to a flame

“Duuuudddy, Duuuudddy” they started chanting, and John hulked-out faster than Bill Bixby in a Witchita county lockup. What’s exciting about him is definitely going to get him killed one of these days, but its no mystery to me why he has loyal fans. He comes to serve them.

I dunno

Duddy pretty well dominated Vanda until that ridiculous and awesome final round where John went, “Fuck it, I boxed for nine, I’m doing my thing now.”

But yeah someone’s going to mess him up awful. I have a love/hate thing for the idea of him fighting Kelly Pavlik.

Haha, no probably not. Of course, knucklehead me picked him to KO Herrera. I count that as my “ballsy” pick. My reasoning was, if Flores could KO anyone, it would be someone with a paper-mache chin like Herrera. At least, I guessed that was probably his manager’s reasoning. But as usual Flores never fails to fail to disappoint.

Man I stink at picking the round.

Whatever happened to the "Boxing Fight and or KO of the month" poll/section?

Question

Just to be sure that I understand the picks process, losses don’t count against one’s standing, do they? So someone who is 12 -5 will be ranked higher then someone who is 7-0?

Just looking for clarification.

Thanks

It's ordered:

Most wins → fewest losses → Most draws → Most KOs

I have no idea if there will be some kind of point system to determine a winner.

Vogt early, Vogt often.

I thought it went something like “Wins – Losses + Draws + KOs.”

One thing is for sure: Scott is a real mensch for keeping track of all this stuff. There ought to be some sort of program to do it automatically over the internet, so hedoesn’t have to go searching through everybody’s pick threads and adding them up.

Your new picture is a classic, my friend

I never really understood what the last one was.
