So theres my tournament. All draws were picked out of a hat. SO PLEASE SPEAK UP, I WANT UR OPINIONS ON SOME OF THE MATCHUP RESULTS. OR MAYBE U CAN MAKE UR OWN.

I copied cox's stradegy of pairing and bracket type. But i used different opponents and MY OWN OPINION on the results.

Jack Johnson seems to have dissapeared in the middle rounds . . .

Pretty good tournament you have there.

I don't agree with Tyson beating Foreman (unless it's an old fat Foreman) but otherwise no real complaints.

Yeah, what happened to Jack Johnson, did he just disappear?

O fornicate, I screwed up. I though jack Johnson had 2 losses but he only had one. I WILL GO REVISE IT BECAUSE I MISRED IT AND JACK JOHNSON SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED. i WILL GO FIX IT.

Charles vs Patterson would have owned.
