Method:

*(T)KO: (Round) (Head kick, Ground strikes, etc etc)

Submission: (Round) (Arm bar, Heel hook, etc etc)

Decision: (Unanimous, Split, Majority) (Judge's Scorecards)

[5 points for method, and 5 bonus for each detail in brackets. 15 total]

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

In the event of a draw, disqualification, or last minute fighter replacement, the fight will not be calculated.

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

*KO & TKO will be considered one option, as there is sometimes trouble distinguishing between the two. So if you choose TKO, and the result is KO, or vice versa, you will still be awarded points.

If you simply list "Strikes" as your KO or (T)KO method, the stoppage must come due to more than one type of strike. However, choosing "Ground Strikes" will be rewarded regardless of the variety of strikes landed on the ground.

Dear God HBM... On the card I'm least sure about of any you're picking 3 fights opposite from me... You have the potential of pulling really far ahead...

It was good being close for as long as we were...

or potential of falling REALLY far behind. I'm a little nervous about this card. There's a lot of SINGLE reasons for me picking a lot of guys, which I probably shouldn't be banking on. Such as Vitor training suddenly at Couture's camp.

Yeah I know what you mean. Like...

-I'm picking Rich because I think Rich will survive the storm and Vitor will gas.

-I'm picking Mirko because I think Dos Santos is overrated.

I could be wrong with either or both of those. I wouldn't be shocked if Vitor's hand speed was too much for Rich to handle. And I also wouldn't be shocked if Dos Santos turned out to be the killer that a lot of the MMA journalists out there are saying he is.

I'm like 51% sure on both of those picks... The other three I'm fairly confident in, but not enough to make up for those two at the top of the card being coin tosses.

I don't know which hurts more, losing ground or having to see one of my favorites in Franklin go down like that...

Either way at least now I know that Slo Cop is done. Dos Santos didn't impress me in that fight but Slo Cop was terrible. When Gonzaga kicked him in the head did he take away Slo Cop's ability to throw strikes? I'd like to see a compustrike on him he didn't really fight so much as he jabbed and pushed Dos Santos from time to time.

By the way you gave all of us a gift by not picking Koscheck...

What were you thinking Kos was the only sure bet on the entire card.

Honestly, it was the fact that it was Trigg's first match back at the big show, thought he'd try to impress. Pair that up with the fact he's looked decent against Hughes (prob my second all time favorite fighter) and I just took a shot. Kos looked great though, he earned my respect too at the press conference saying he told Dana if anyone backs out of the next to cards he will step in and take their place, he just wants to fight :y:
