Union Cane's Prediction League

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Week Eleven Results

1. Vitali Klitschko v. Tomasz Adamek (12)	Vitali Klitschko TKO 10 (LKO)
2. Yuriorkis Gamboa v. Daniel Ponce de Leon (12)	Yuriorkis Gamboa TD 8 (LKO)
3. Paul McCloskey v. Breidis Prescott (12)	Paul McCloskey UD
4. Juan Carlos Salgado v. Argenis Mendez (12)	Juan Carlos Salgado UD
~~5. Oliver McCall v. Bert Cooper (10)~~

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Week Eleven Review

Tomasz Adamek is a two-weight world champion, and therefore clearly no mug, but he was no match for Vitali Klitschko. Simply too small to compete, Adamek did well to last as long as he did but was never going to beat the bigger man.

Paul McCloskey should change his name to McLucky, after a terrible start he somehow managed to turn things round (helped no doubt by the home crowd cheering every punch he threw, let alone landed) and get a controversial decision against Breidis Prescott.

Some very high scores this week, even without the McCall / Cooper result, ~~which is not in yet.~~ which is now a voided fight.

When will I learn not to use fights from these back-water third-world countries?

'Predictor of the Week' is a tricky one this week, with Mind the windows Tino., alma, licence_007 and Reborn-DeeMcK-Reborn all getting all four fights spot on and amassing 16 points each. As it's impossible to split them, this week's award goes to Michaels, Sean, who, despite all the points on offer, still only managed a paltry 3 points. Took some doing that, well done Sean.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scoring and Rules

For any newcomers and the forgetful, scoring and rules as follows :

Predict the winner - 1 point

- Predict the method (KO*/Pts) - 1 point

- - Predict Early / Late (for KO) or Unanimous / Split / Majority (for Pts) - 1 point

Get all three above correct - 1 bonus point

10 points will be awarded for correctly predicting a draw.

*TKO, DQ, TD or Retirement all count as KO

I will list fights 1 - 5, this list will be definitive, when predicting please list fights in the same order.

Any entries that are subsequently amended will be void.

If a fight is cancelled, or if a fighter drops out and is replaced, that fight is then void.

I think that just about covers it, any questions feel free to ask.

This is a respectable thread Mr Michaels, kindly keep your man sausage to yourself.

I'm being serious. I've also just asked Calzaghe a very thought provoking question.

Don't know what you mean...

Whistle

Seriously, sorry guys, that was my f*ck up again, I was up early and sorting this out at 6am this morning so that nobody complains about it being updated too late. I will take more care in future.

by coxy0001 Mon 05 Sep 2011, 10:14 am

Bloody disgrace

I'm going to offcom.

Apologies mate, but you have only ended up with as many points as you should have, I don't see why you are making such a fuss.

If you feel that strongly, go on strike and don't predict this week.

by coxy0001 Mon 05 Sep 2011, 10:27 am

No no, i've just emailed offcom

Can't go changing points once posted. Be like changing the lottery numbers.

I've emailed Hobo demanding that he tell you to revert to your original results table, he has the power... he has the power

As the organisation you refer to are called ofcom, not offcom I have to suspect Hobo will be your only slim hope of having this resolved.

I've also emailed WADA and USADA as well

Next on my list is Obama, he'll clear this mess up
