PrintAnother 10 week season of pick'em action starts this weekend with everyone back on level terms. If last season didn't go as planned, you've got a chance to bounce back with a full arsenal of doubles (10) and triples (5) at your disposal.
While there are no major fights happening to kick-start the season, we do have five bouts to select from. Topping the bill is a battle of southpaw junior-middleweights with up and coming Austin Trout going up against Mexican veteran David Lopez.
A couple of double-headers are also on the gamesheet. There's Friday's Shobox offering, with cruiserweight prospect Lateef Kayode facing Matt Godfrey and bantamweights Chris Avalos and Khabir Suleymanov also going at it. Plus, there's Saturday's Sky show featuring Paul Edwards' first British flyweight title defense against Chris Edwards, and a heavyweight clash between David Price and Tom Dallas.
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 last season's final standings here.
Let’s get to the week 1 line-up…
