The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 30 - Week 1

Welcome, ladies and gentleman, to Season 30 of the BLH Pick'em Game! Lots to look forward to as we're also kicking off the 2016 Player of the Year race.

Once again, congratulations to THE DROWSE ELEMENT for winning 2015 POY honors. And congrats to BlackStarUK for taking home the top spot in Season 29.

No time to rest on your laurels! Let the picking begin. The first significant action of the year includes a couple of heavyweight scraps with Deontay Wilder and David Haye beginning their respective 2016 campaigns. Best of luck everyone.

Alrighty ... Let's get it get it get it!

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).

The numbers in your selections are binding, not the names which you can leave out. The numbers will suffice.
