CPU CRAZY EIGHT SHOWDOWN

[Fist of Legend]

I need some contenders for the CPU title so this is my idea, Top 8 CPU's from both divisions will square off in 8 round bouts to determine the true #1 contender for the CPU title. this will take place in between weeks 23 and 24, so all fighters booked in the tournament will still be available to fight on the Week 24 card.

first off there will be a round robin where each middleweight will fight one another as will the Light-Middles and points will be scored the same way as the MDT 3 pts for a KO, 2 pts for a Decision, 1 pt for a draw and 0 for a loss.(the round robin fights will not count towards the fighters records or performance points)

once the round robin has been finished the top 4 point leaders will face off in playoff style elimination matches until the last man is standing as the true #1 Contender.

Middleweights

1. Marvin Hagler
2. Sam Langford
3.Tiger Flowers
4. Jake Lamotta
5. Mike Gibbons
6. Philly Jack O'Brien
7. Panama Joe Gans
8. Dick Tiger

Light Middles

1. Oscar De la Hoya
2. Pernell Whitaker
3. Terry Norris
4. Felix Trinidad
5. Shane Mosley
6. Koichi Wajima
7. Saul Alvarez
8. Ayub Kalule

Hagler and Oscar are CPU opponents now?

[gilgamesh]

Hagler and Oscar are CPU opponents now?

News to me as well.

Hagler and Oscar are CPU opponents now?

News to me as well.

Sweet P has been absent for several weeks therefore his fighters were returned to the pool

[armageto]

I guess we'll leave Hagler as a FA. will be a tough computer out for everyone and a way for people to challenge him for a chance to jump up rankings. His other fighters can be picked up if an owner chooses to do so.

[Fist of Legend]

the round robin has been completed. Below is a point grid of how things went down (excuse my crude ms paint skills ), I'm not going to type the result of every fight unless its really wanted by anyone (remember these fights did not count towards fighter records or performance points)





so the guys moving on are as follows:

Middleweight

1. Philadelphia Jack O'Brien -10 pts
2. Marvin Hagler - 10 points
3. Tiger Flowers - 9 pts
4. Panama Joe Gans - 7 pts

O'Brien was made hte #1 seed over hagler due to him having more wins, there was a three way tie for the final spot but since Gans beat both of the other guys he will be moving on

Light-Middle

1. Pernell Whitaker -12 pts
2. Terry Norris - 11 pts
3. Koichi Wajima - 10 pts
4.Ayube Kalule - 7 pts

so just like the middleweights, we have a 3 way tie for the last spot but since Kalule had victories over the other two he moves on


the playoff round will go like this

O'Brien vs Kalule
Norris vs Flowers

Whitaker vs Gans
Hagler vs Wajima


winner of O'Brien/Kalule will take on Winner of Norris/Flowers etc.

the man who wins will be crowned the true #1 Contender for the CPU title, results will be up by Sunday at the latest.
