PM'd you my choices in case I aint here when my turn comes up.

Any objections to adding Harry Greb and Bernard Hopkins to the fighter list? Keep in mind that there ratings won't neccesarily be as good or bad as their original weight classes, but some fighters have multiple classes they are rated in.

Since the draft has already started, I'll leave it up to you.

Alot of old-time fighters like Greb dabbled in so many weights it isnt even funny. Still, Greb gave the 175 pound Tunney the fights of his ring career, so I think he's warranted for induction on here. However, I can see where people wouldn't want him on the list.

I've added Hopkins, but I'll hold off on Greb until others weigh in.

grimm votes yes

I'd be happy for Greb to make an appearance.

Problem....I looked for greb, couldn't find him so I took Conn. If you add him this late in the draft, the injustice of it will require a class action suit in order to make right the damage done to our organization in the wake of such an arbitrary and season changing rule. Hopkins changes nothing as he is equal to the other options currently available. Greb on the other hand changes the balance of power so fundamentally that litigation would be the only recourse.

Our team of lawyers stands ready to take the proper action depending on the decision of the commish

Buzz can have Greb.

Buzz, when I took over this office, I brought on a group of highly paid, very slick team of doberman like attorneys that I assigned only to handle matters from GBP and their fighters. They tell me that they have certain photos of you, and that I should not be worried about any litigation.

As it pertains to Greb, if I had known of his mutil-layered sim ratings, that mirror his multi-layered career, he would have been in from the word go. As it stands now, I will wait and see.

Good find for number 7

since the draft has already started i feel it is unfair to add any more fighters since some of us have already picked.

I think adding Greb and Hopkins at the start of the season would be better, They could be good opponents. Either way i dont care though,As im sure Langford will give them both a beating

Add them as computer controlled opponenets, with the option for someone to 'win' one of the fighters after a few weeks. Sounds like a plan to me!

Or give them a belt each, Maybe the WBU and IBO. They could fight computer guys the first 5 weeks like we do, After 5 weeks the commisioner can match someone against them. Just a thought.

Good idea!

MadBall1982 has 4.5 hours from this post to make his pick. Then on to TIA, who will hopefully be around.

We could have computer guys defend all the belts the first 5 weeks, Then the top guys could face of in eliminators after 5 weeks to see who challenges the champ.

Yeah, but if the human controlled fighter defeats the CPU fighter with the belt, then what? They're the champion right?

By doing eliminators after 5 weeks, it gives everyone a chance to build a record worthy of that fight. By doing it week 1, it's down to me just picking anyone.

I was trying to say, We still have the eliminators after week 5, But there only to challenge whoever is the champion at the time. Instead of being for the belt. Its only a thought. Just thought it would be interesting to have the Computer ranked guys fighting each other for the belts during the first 5 weeks.

Ah, I see what you mean. Only CPU fighters fight for belts in the first 5 weeks? Yeah, that sounds good. And then do the eliminators after week 5 to see who they fight.

Come on commish, do try to keep up
