ironbeard’s 2022 Fight Picks Contest

[ironbeard]

Well, I am going to attempt to manage a 2022 fight prediction competition.

Off the top, JCS, if you would like to resume your fine effort, I will be happy to step aside. This will NOT be done with software and spreadsheets.

I will choose fights I want to include in the contest each week.

People are invited to choose:

1. Winner or draw (correct prediction = 5 points)
2. Method of victory: decision/Stoppage (correct prediction = 5 points)
3. Round of stoppage (correct prediction = 5 points

Example 1; correct winner and wrong method = 5 points.

Example 2; correct prediction of draw = 5 points.

Example 3; correct winner and correct method (wrong round if stoppage) = 10 points.

Example 4; correct winner + correct stoppage prediction + correct round of stoppage prediction = 15 points.

Each month is treated as an individual contest. The top three competitors for the month receive bonuses as follows:

1st place = 15 point bonus
2nd place = 10 point bonus
3rd place = 5 point bonus

All contestants start at 0 at the beginning of each month. Points from individual months are added together to determine the Champion at the end of 2022.

Deadline for picks is 9am Pacific Time on the day of the first fight that week.

The first two fights for the contest are January 1, 2022. Picks are due by 9am Pacific Time, January 1, 2022.

January 1, Fight #1 = Luiz Ortiz v Charles Martin

January 1, Fight #2 = Frank Sanchez vs Christian Hammer

[ironbeard]

Fight #1 = Ortiz/KO/4

Fight #2 = Sanchez/Decision

Good idea, ironbeard. Hopefully this stuff lives, be it with you in charge or with JCS.

But! What about variations of decisions? Dominant, wide, close? Or you'll keep it without this thing?

So, my picks:

Fight #1 = Ortiz/KO/6

Fight #2 = Sanchez/Decision

Thank you for participating, DrDuke!

I am keeping it real simple to start. Since it is a month to month competition, we could (likely will) make minor changes between months.

They will be included. For now I am going week to week. I will likely post both the Smith and Yoka fights next week. Next month I may post the fights for the whole month but with the Omicron effect, too many fights are being postponed.

Thank you for participating, Cent0089!
