Did noone pick Benn earlyer than 5th?

I was half expecting half the picks to be round 1 and 2 after how negative everyones been about his oponent.

benn hype!!!

[gregregegg]

i picked 5th but bet on benn from 1-4.... and iv been the most accepting of the opponent...

Dont know how you can be mad about the oponent and yet thinking he will make it 10 rounds with benn (Grumpy Benn hater Kiwi). if van makes it 10 he basicaly would of had to be competitive.

[margaret thatcher]

i almost never pick super early kos, always figure there's a good shot that the first couple will be them dicking around doing nothing, aka 'feeling out'

everyone picked benn and almost everyone by ko, was a foregone conclusion fight

[margaret thatcher]

benn also stopped him 6 rounds before spence did, so he's 6x the fighter spence is

[Ruthless-RKO]

Someone called Sammy Scaff had him winning via KO2..

He’ll get max points

[Ruthless-RKO]

5 picked Gamboa via decision

[tiny_acres]

5 picked Gamboa via decision

Yep I thought he had 1 good fight left

[oogiebe]

5 picked Gamboa via decision

Yep I thought he had 1 good fight left

Maybe, but it wasn't tonight.

[gregregegg]

stinger when you pick spence round 9... and his eye is completly closed all 9th round. then gets stopped in the 10th for his eye being closed...

[KiwiRider]

5 picked Gamboa via decision

Yep I thought he had 1 good fight left

High mileage guy, and 40 years old is ancient for the little fellas.
Heck, I had Cruz by decision.
Pretty much just as bad, but I expected Gamboa to last. Not now though

[Sammy Scaff]

Seen enough Hearn knockover main events for that not to be a crazy pick.

[Fightnight Scores]

With 85 points available with this weeks mostly stoppage victories there were plenty of movement possibilities in the April league.

Adislav123 & MightyWarrior posted a joint best total of 55 points! Very well done chaps
This tally also puts you both at the top of the April League! Adislav123 in the absolute 1st spot based on % and correct picks.

Some Stats
- MightWarrior's perfect pick of Spence KO 10 is the biggest point tally (30) from a single bout so far in the competition as a double pointer resulting in a stoppage.
- Of the toughest fight to pick (on paper), and indeed the closest fight of the night only 2 players (ldlamb & NoScoutingReports) correctly predicted a Stanionis win (both also correctly picked points).
- After a poor weekend of picks, Fightnight Scores has spectatularly fallen from the top of the April standings down 4 places to 5th
- Adislav123's haul puts him joint second in the overall standings! (See the leaderboard below)



Next weekends picks will be announced later, so keep an eye out for the thread! And not so much a spoiler, Fury-Whyte will be a double pointer!

[MightyWarrior]

Thanks justice at last, I picked Fundora & GGG last week ko10 and missed by a round twice
