This is a sign up thread for what was a PPV event in the Championship Pick 'em League. UFC 196 turned into Fight Night 82 and takes place in two weeks starting at appr. 6:00 PM ET or 11:00 PM GMT. The HW title was on the line but both got "injured"... it'll still be live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Vegas! Here we go!
If the champ, AlphaDawg, signs up he'll decide if he wants to defend this:
The scheduled fights include:
Johny Hendricks vs. Stephen Thompson
Roy Nelson vs. Jared Rosholt
Rafael Cavalcante vs. Ovince Saint Preux
Joseph Benavidez vs. Zach Makovsky
Misha Cirkunov vs. Alex Nicholson
Mike Pyle vs. Sean Spencer
Josh Burkman vs. K.J. Noons
Damian Grabowski vs. Derrick Lewis
Ray Borg vs. Justin Scoggins
Noad Lahat vs. Diego Rivas
Mickey Gall vs. Mike Jackson
Artem Lobov vs. Alex White
Feel free to join in even if you've never played before. If you have any questions let someone know. If you sign up and don't send picks for fights by the time they start each one will be wrong. You can change picks you send leading up the event, but not once it starts. Here's how to pick:
This info comes from Walker's rules/help thread found here: Link.
Select the correct fighter: 10 points, if you get that right other points are available Select the correct method of win: 5 points
Method includes Submission, KO/TKO and Decision. Select the correct round of win: 3 points
If you select the fight to end by decision then you must choose either unanimous, split or majority instead of a round. If you want to predict a rare outcome such as a DQ, NC or a draw you may do that as well. For the DQ, include the name of the winning fighter and the round it occurred, for the NC just the round, and for a draw include the type of draw the decision was (unanimous, split or majority).
In addition you can earn bonus points for EACH fight by putting the fights in order from your most confident pick to your least confident when you PM them. If there are 10 fights on the card then your most confident pick could earn you an extra 10 points if you get it correct.
Thanks for signing up guys. Ape is the only one who sent picks already so big thanks to him. If anybody wants to be brave and go against Mr Winstreak let me know. Oh yeah, and also if anybody wants to do the Cerrone vs Means fight night show or the one with Silva vs Bisping just say so. If not that's cool, there's a ppv show next month.

Does Means got busted and pulled out of the fight night 83 main event make anybody want to change their vote? That was one short anyway even with a main event. Plus nobody has told me who they want to go against on this underrated CPL event. I went against Ape last time it's Joab or Clyde looks like.
Cool, I'll make both threads when they're 2 weeks out. I also edited the TBA vs Cerrone to Oliveira.
Plus, I put the matchups on pg 1 it's Ape vs Joab in the best matchup both coming off wins. And two guys coming off something else in the other one, me vs Clyde.
Hour and a half to get picks in @ClydebankBlitz I can put up our massive amount of picks, yep all 4 or us, once the event starts and pick changes are out of time.
Makes me wonder if it wouldn't be worth switching to a league type system, where the points all all tallied up over say... 10 events, all against all. Soon this will be all rematches :laugh:
Hopefully more fresh faces will be around when the McG vs RDA ppv happens, but I appreciate the few who do the rest like you guys. Heh, if Clyde doesn't send picks I'd get my first win like that in a looooong time. Take your time, man. :thumb02:
Ape (3-0) vs Joabbuac (11-8)
Fight won by Ape 178 to 111! FOTN!
dudeabides (52-56-1) vs ClydebankBlitz (10-14)
Fight won by dudeabides 155 to 0! KOTN!
Thanks for playing everybody even though it was a watered down card, would've been a CPL ghost town without you three. The high scorer was Ape with 178. See you guys at the next Fight Night event.
