With not much happening this weekend, we've only got three fights on the game-sheet to select from.

Topping the bill is a middleweight clash between Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Peter Manfredo, which happens to be the only fight being offered by HBO this week as the Pacquiao-Marquez replay will also be shown on the telecast.

Also on the line-up is a featherweight encounter from Australia between Billy Dib and Alberto Servidei and a super-bantamweight bout between Mexicans Fernando Montiel and Victor Terrazas.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

An explanation of how to fill out your selections appears at the bottom of this post - please follow these instructions as it makes it easier for us to tabulate the results quickly each week.

You can check out the latest standings here.

Let’s get to the week 4 line-up…

Made a little change to the Chavez-Manfredo odds – but since you picked stoppage, I’m guessing the change won’t make you reconsider your selection.

No, keep it the same.

Sorry, my bad

Was fooled by Dan Rafael’s schedule on ESPN.com that has it this weekend, but Boxrec says it’s on the 26th… Sorry once again :(

by Radu on Nov 16, 2011 4:00 AM EST up reply actions

mind you, ringtv.com also has it on saturday, nov. 19th, as do several other sites, however various news pieces cite it as being on the 26th. Mut have been rescheduled or something…

Yeah, it got moved back. Premier Sports, which is airing the fight in the UK, has it for 11/26.
