Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game - Season 31 - Week 8

With only three weeks left we have another giant sheet! We've got heavyweight action from New Zealand and the UK, cruiserweights from France and Russia, and junior middleweights from Vegas ... and more!

Make sure to check your doubles and triples!

We have a ton of the points on the table this week. Long odds and live dogs should make for an interesting weekend and a good chance to make up ground. "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.

Please follow the instructions at the bottom of this post - it makes it easier for me to tabulate the results each week.
