Fightnews have it as Leyva also, I think he has come in as a last minute job.

Into the 3rd round the easy way. 2 matches, no predicitons against me! I'm pitching a shutout. (however, my 42 points were 2nd highest of the round) I'm up against "Zombiequeen" next, not sure if that is anyone here.
And i'm only 8 points behind ya Steve, i'm breathing down your neck!
Good luck to everyone this week.

Thanks mate.
Just trying to sort out some prizes for this year. Still waiting for the promised belts from Masis Belts! :(
What would you guys rather?. Tickets for shows or autographed stuff?

Autographed stuff would be nice

I would have to say autographed stuff also because I am in the States. It would be pretty hard for me to get over there for a fight. But I'm not worried about it... i don't care about the prizes, i do it for the fun of it. If it is a fight in the UK, and i happen to somehow win, I will gladly give those tickets to whoever finishes 2nd.

hmm I had no idea there was a cup and I'm in the 3rd round.
Interesting, hehe.

Well, i'm back up to 8th in the league and in the 3rd round of the cup against gatti-ward. (Is he someone from here?)
Certainly living up to my guarantee of finishing in the top 10 this season. I would have been top 10 last season had I not been busy in the rainforests of central Malaysia, lol.
Good look everyone and keep up the good work Kevin.

Same here.
I know its unlikely that I will win, but if it is autographed stuff or a boxing tickets I would auction them off for charity (probably would ask Kevin to do the honours at BBN).
I would think about keeping boxing vids if that was a prize though.

Not that I'm in contention to win at the moment, but I'd be more than happy with either as a prize, Kevin. I just do it for the fun of it mate, fair play to you for running it.

Not sure if the automatic reminder for BPN is working properly. Three days to go to predict, but I am off to Norwich tomorrow so won't be able to remind you anymore!
Thaxton fight has changed and has been scrubbed from the list to predict on.
Come on States get predicting!! :-)

Get in there!! I see myself as a cup team, rather than a full-league slogger.

Again, fair play to you for running this Kev.

Round three results are up.
I'm out :(
A massive week, eleven fights to predict on.
Three more weeks to go. Can Steve689 hold on to his league position?

Knocked out of the cup this week
Still hanging onto my overall position in the league though so not all bad
The gap is certainly shortening at the top and this week I feel could change the top 10 alltogether.
The Guillermo Jones was the one I dropped the pts on, and that is one I felt most confident about, I just felt he`d get found out this time, is he still banned inthe UK? and for how long? he must now be the real dangerman in the division
11fights this week then, It took me hrs viewing dvd`s and re-reading reports in BN to sort out the 4 last week, the first week I`ve gone through so much trouble and I get KO`ed of the cup
Just take a wild guess this week then
As for the prizes, I`d be happy with just the recognition of winning, not into autographed stuff and if a fight interests me I`d fork out for it...depending on distance

I became pretty reliant on those reminders, Kev. Hence, I've now missed two weeks worth of predictions. It's as much my fault, but now I guess I'll bow out of the comp. Good luck everyone else.

Damn...I sure wish I had would have been predictiong from the beginning...I may have ended up right in the running for some of the prizes! Does winning percentage count for anything?

Knocked out of the cup with 97 points! Ah well, at least I'm top 10 now.

I'm 4th place in the league now, and only a few points from 3rd, as well as being in the semi finals of this cup. Zombiequeen had a good week too so hopefully i'll get past him next week.
The only thing the annoys me is that I actually should now be 1st in the leage because 2 weeks ago, I accidently clicked the wrong guy when I mean to click someone else, costing me 20 points! Damnit!
Oh well, i'm in with a shout now, just 19 points behind you Steve, it's hotting up.
