A somewhat less significant weekend of fights, but with only two weeks left we will dig in to what's available to find scoring opportunities. We have action from the Philippines, the UK, two fights from the U.S., and a special Sunday fight also from the UK.
Only 2 weeks left! Make sure to check your doubles and triples!
This week is a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to odds and probabilities, but there are still a bunch of points available if you use your multipliers wisely. Should be an interesting weekend for pick'em strategy. "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.
