The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 18 - Week 2

Scott Heavey

All the action this weekend takes place on Friday, with the Shobox card delivering most of the action.

Unbeaten heavyweight Dontay Wilder takes on veteran big man Siarhei Liakhovich in the main-event. The undercard features Jermall Charlo going up against Antwone Smith and a match-up of unbeaten super-featherweights in Francisco Vargas and Brandon Bennett.

We've got the FNF main-event too, with Rustam Nugaev squaring off with Jose Hernandez in a 10-round lightweight match-up.

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).
