      Is it just me or are there too many unknown fighters on this card to predict every fight?

          It's only 10 points. It shouldn't be too hard, just Wiki their records and then see if they look tough at the weigh ins.

            Don't forget to factor in how many tattoos they have.

                Anyone know how the 2 per day works? Is it every day, or every exact 24 hours from the first time. If I'm talking shit, I'd better be able to back it up. Can't do it, could be my mobile.

                    It is every day. You should be able to transfer points after 12am ET.

                              Hey Hoff I tried giving you 10 points but it wouldn't let me. i haven't really given points before so I don't know if I'm doing it right and in the past I've had problems giving points out...

                              So I can only post 2 points per day???

                              I just posted two but it wouldn't let me post anymore...'

                              At this rate I won't have them in by friday but rather on saturday, assuming it only lets me post 2 points per day.

                              What can I do so that I can be in this contest??

                              Let me know, thanks dude.

                                            The HOFF 10pts
                                            Vahaugany 10pts
                                            NunyaBidness 10pts
                                            snake11eyes 10pts
                                            more_betterness 8pts

                                            FightFightFight 8pts
                                            trevlyn1983 6pts
                                            jacktheknife 6pts

                                            It appears we will have 11 people in with a few extra points, so around 114 pts for the winner. As long as you get me 8 by Friday and an additional 2 on Saturday, I'll let you be in the contest.

                                                      Why is it so crazy? Your saying "..can beat Pat Barry" as if Pat Barry is some kind of elite fighter! He's at lowest level of the ladder, only slightly above Morecraft who is at the very bottom. At +140 or better Morecraft has just as a good a chance of getting it to the ground and finishing him there as Barry does of catching Morecraft standing. He was dominating Struve until get caught - if he can do the same in this thn Barry wont be able to take the kind of punishment tht Struve can take. And he' said tht he isnt going to mess around striking like he did against Mitrione - he's going to look to close distance straight away and look to take it to the ground.

                                                            If I thought Morecraft was going to fight a smart fight I think he should be a favorite. Both are bottom tier heavyweights.

                                                              Agreed, or at worst Evens. He's said in all his interviews he has no intention of standing with Barry and taking shis leg kicks so at least he isnt being as naive as he was before Mitrione

                                                                Barry nearly put Kongo away. You think Morecraft could come close to beating Kongo?

                                                                    Probably not, but what's your point? You're not looking at it stylistically. Kongo wasn't looking for the take-down against Barry, in fact it was Barry who went for the only take-down attempt in the fight and got shoved away. As me and Nunya have said above, the reasoning behind anybody taking Morecraft in this one has to be based on the assumption that Morecraft looks for the take-down early... and if he does Barry could be in trouble.

                                                                      How does that suggest he doesn't intend on abandoning the stand-up? He's saying that he isn't going to do a Guillard against Lil Heathen and be elusive and try and out point his opponent. He says, he's still "going to bring the pressure" which doesn't mean he necessarily has to get in to a stand-up brawl - the fans can still be entertained by Barry being taken down and GnP or choked out. In fact if anything he is even saying that he's going to take Barry to the ground as mud-hole stomping means kicking somebody in to the ground!
