After Sweet P and I make our choices you can swap 1 fighter for anyone on the list.

Doesn't look like you did all that bad though. Up to you.

Yes make your choice now.

Hopkins and Villa. Can I live?

Hopkins was open..... Villa is taken.

Right you are. Give me Naseem Hamed. Can't overlook somebody from my hometown.

I'll take Tommy Gibbons, and wait for Sweet P to chime in before I pick my second choice.

Wait a minute. I hate to be a douchebag, but weren't you the one telling everyone to stick to the rules? You said that our second picks MUST be between Lightweight and Strawweight, yet you have a LHW and a JWW.

What gives? Already trying to pull a fast one on us eh Buzz?

You recognized the "scrap heap" for what it is eh? Well this was creases rule, I simply am complying.

However I will bow to whatever public sentiment demands, including your suggestion, or even non participation as a competitor.

I can not allow my hard earned reputation for fairness and even handedness to be besmirched by even the hint of scandal.

Well, I'd hate to see that your fighter has any kind of unfair size advantage, but I can live with it if everyone else can.

do fighters from the heavierweights have a distinct advantage over the lighter ones in this season? if not i have no probs with it as to me p4p means Valuev vs ricardo lopez would be assumed to be the same size

Size is out the window this season

No advantage.......

i would of taken beau jack over villa oh well im sticking with my picks

Can we start making fights for week 1 then?

Has Crease gone AWOL already?

We also seem to have lost a lot of Aussie bottlers this season.

Allow BoxBuzz to have this Mr Detroit... Buzz kindly removed himself from the draft (due to the fact that he posts the results of the fights) and because he has to wait until the very end, as a "balancing act" (if you will) I decided to give him flexibility in his choices, seeing as he was getting the last picks.

It was also my suggestion to open up the HW divsion for those who felt having extra weight was somehow an advantage during the second half of the snake. But Crease felt that was not a great idea....and we went his way.

Size honestly is no advanatage. Did you read the exhibition fights? Valuev knocks Lopez around like a rag doll in the "weighted" exhibition......however in the pound for pound version......Lopez KO's Valuev.

In a very funny example.....Whitaker beat Erik Esche either way. If anything the lighter guys may have an very small edge....based on nothing more than our perceptions of just what weight really plays in such an encounter.
