Re: Week 3 LHW 13 to 18
Two hard fought fights with armageto's stable this week that didn't go our way. Congratulations to armageto for having the better men this week. Maybe we'll have rematches down the road.
Both good, tough fights though

Re: Week 3 LHW 13 to 18
Joey Maxim will fight your boy Michael Moorer. Dwight Qawi needs a break from tough competition for a while, so we'll be matching him a little more carefully...but big puncher or not, your boy Michael Moorer is not going to break Maxim's concrete jaw...and he'll wear your sorry ass down and steal your heart.DetroitHxC wrote:Now it's time for your weak bitch fighters to take their REAL beatdown, in Week 4.gilgamesh wrote:Two hard fought fights with armageto's stable this week that didn't go our way.

Re: Week 3 LHW 13 to 18
Commish', Galindez has suffered 3 losses in 4. Can I consign him to the SIM pool (trash) and re-draft someone of someone of use, please?
Someone like Joe Choynski.....

Very well, the fights are set then.DetroitHxC wrote:No, fvck that, you ran your mouth and signed up for a stable war. Now accept your fate, Stribling vs Maxim, Moorer vs Qawi.
THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR!!!
Don't be a bitch ass duck.
And LOL at you trying to match your first round pick with my second round pick...
Re: Week 3 LHW 13 to 18
Managers may fire and hire as they please.....remember that fighters ARE affected by age and wear and tear...and do need tune up fights to bounce back....they also gain from wins....so manage accordingly.
Also...you have to stack up points to be rated....newly hired fighters have a hard time making up for fights that have not been fought. However they are fresh, and properly managed could indeed make up for lost time. I did include (and will include more) fighters that are highly rated this week in the cards....so those winners may have some strategic value for managers who want jettison older fighters and bring on new talent.
(always a bad idea in my humble opinion....always leave the dance with those you arrived with is my motto...lol)

Re: Week 3 LHW 13 to 18
I would humbly request that I be allowed to replace Galindez with Choynski, though your points are valid Commish'.
Choynski brings a certain 'beatdown' element to the SIM, don't you agree?

Re: Week 3 LHW 13 to 18
Can do....but look at the top fighters....Len is not doing too badly.....and is up for grabs.

Both were tough fights indeed. Dillon had some luck going down near the end of the 9th. I thought going into the 10th, the winner of that round would win the fight. Luckily for me, Dillon came out with the same thinking. Qawi looked lost in the last few rounds, almost as if he stopped fighting.
We'll do it again down the line.......
