PTBF 2014 - RULES & STANDINGS THREAD - FINAL

[WelshJack]

Can someone explain what scores it has to be for a decision to be close or wide. I'm very confused.

CLOSE = Fight's decision is a split decision, majority decision, or a unanimous decision where the total difference in points are 9 (7 for 10-rounder) or less for the winning fighter.

WIDE = Fight's decision is a unanimous decision where the total difference in points are between 10 and 21 (8 and 17 for 10-rounder) for the winning fighter.

DOMINANT = Fight's decision is a unanimous decision where the total difference in points is 22 (18 for 10-rounder) or more for the winning fighter.

This is with the 3 judges scores combined right.

You ever see a boxer win by 22 points on one card?

Hey, JCS, c'mon, Klitschko vs. Povetkin was not FAR off, TBH...

[claudevsq]

Finally... Mayweather vs. Maidana on may 3rd...

[Duch]

Are there some rules about how many fights we will try to predict and how many of them will be multiplied by 1,25; 1,5; 1,75 and 2?
What can I expect?

[claudevsq]

Mares vs. Miura on Mayweather undercard... has apparently been confirmed in Tokyo yesterday...

[CrazyHorse]

Got 1 wrong. FML. I went crazy after getting the last fight wrong and was going to use up all my x2 and x3. Cooled down and only put x3 down on the Leo Santa Cruz fight



Sickens me I got the last fight wrong, should have watched more tape on both fighters. Lesson learned

[claudevsq]

You HAVE to put the comma after your name.

WelshJack Crawford, decision, close, x3
WelshJack Lomachenko, KO, Round 9
WelshJack Chavez, decision, wide

JCS?

And another question: why commas are so important?

I sucked this time. I thought that Salido would win but when I saw that almost everybody chose Lomachenko, I did it too. I shouldn't look at other people's guessing. :P

No.

Last year we had 59 fights: 0.50x - 4, 1.00x - 35, 1.25x - 12, 1.50x - 4, 1.75x - 1, 2.00x - 3
Year before we had 51 fights: 1.00x - 31, 1.25x - 13, 1.50x - 1, 1.75x- 3, 2.00x - 3

And another question: why commas are so important?

Because I use software to automatically parse the threads and it helps protect against things like quoting other members' picks, etc.

[CrazyHorse]

Stiverne decision close

[claudevsq]

Apr-19: Peter Quillin - Lukaš Konečný

[claudevsq]

May-2: Erislandy Lara - Ishe Smith
Apr-12: Khabib Allakhverdiev - Jessie Vargas (5 stars)

[scallum]

I think I may hhave messed up format because only got .20 points from last week but picked 2,correct fights and one perfect, Thanks

[scallum]

I'm sorry I inadvertently used Canelo first name instead of using Alvarez

[JCS]

Everyone is fixed except for ZEVASTIAN... needs to show me which fight I missed, too lazy to look.

Scoring bug also fixed which was jipping people 1 point by being off by one on the DECISION type. Props to joe strong.

[claudevsq]

JCS, the May-2 fight between Lara and Smith is a 5-star, just like Allakhverdiev vs. Vargas. What about the female 5-star-fight between Persoon and Farías, btw? Novelty fight?
