This is a signup thread for the next Strikeforce event which takes place in two weeks at 8:00 PM EDT or 12 AM GMT. The main event is a MW title fight between Luke Rockhold and Tim Kennedy from the Rose Garden in Portland, OR, USA.
Anybody who likes Strikeforce can sign up, even if they have not played so far. Details on how to pick are below, same format used for UFC events in CPL. Except for one thing... you send a pick for every fight on the main card, but only for two of the fights on the preliminary card. If there is a miracle and Machida Karate signs up he'll be defending this belt:
And since our Interim Champ himself... Bknmax signed up he'll put that title on the line!
The scheduled fights include:
MAIN CARD (Pick All)
Luke Rockhold vs. Tim Kennedy
Nate Marquardt vs. Tyron Woodley
Roger Gracie vs. Keith Jardine
Lorenz Larkin vs. Robbie Lawler
PRELIMINARY CARD (Pick 2)
Jorge Masvidal vs. Justin Wilcox
Pat Healy vs. Mizuto Hirota
Jordan Mein vs. Tyler Stinson
Jason High vs. Nate Moore
Ryan Couture vs. Joe Duarte
You can send picks whenever confident with the fights. The picks should only be pm'd once unless they add, drop or change a fight on the main card. The offcial card can be seen HERE. If someone signs up and fails to send their picks, they lose their matchup and won't be cleared to fight at the next event. The deadline to send picks is when the Strikeforce event begins, approx. 8:00 PM EST in the US.
On how to pick fights:
Select the correct fighter: 10 points 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 or a draw you may do that as well. For the DQ, include the name of the winning fighter and the round it occurred, 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.
Honestly though you know you're not on the same level of skill, but whoever Dana aka Dude's put's in front of me then that's who will will get KTFO:thumbsup:
Strikeforce Pick 'em: Rockhold vs Kennedy Matchups
Ladies and Gentleman, it's Showtime, here we go with the main event of the evening. 5 rounds of fighting, for the Interim Strikeforce Pick 'em League championship of the world! Introducing first... in the red corner... from England... pipe! His opponent across the cage, fighting out of the blue corner... hailing from Brooklyn, NY... he is the Reigning and Defending Interim champion of the Strikeforce Pick 'em League... Bknmax!
Pick 'em rules are on the front page, good luck to you both...
Main Event
Bknmax (8-4) vs pipe (6-4-1)
Here are the non-title matchups, some room is still left for more signups if you show up by Saturday. But these four below are proven badasses the show will rock no matter:
Main Card
hixxy (9-3) vs RustyRenegade (1-0) Couchwarrior (6-6) vs Big_Charm (4-5)
Remember, picks must be sent by Saturday July 14th at 8:00 PM Eastern or by the time the prelim fights start.
No you can sign up until the fights start live on Saturday night! But everybody else signed up so far is in a matchup except me. So you can either roll the dice and wait to see if somebody else signs up or one of the others forgets to send picks, or you can just go against me and hope you get the 50 or 60 pts needed to pull off the win. :thumb02:
Sorry man a little late, we're not on the card cause the event started over a half hour before you posted. Even I could get nice prelim scoring picks with a few decided results to choose from. And everybody sent picks, so no stand in needed, maybe next time man.
And the winner of tonight's main event and... STILL... the interim champion of the Strikeforce Pick 'em league... Bknmax!
He won 89 to 53!!!KOTN!
This is once again yours to wear in your sig if you so choose:
Main Card
hixxy (10-3) vs RustyRenegade (1-1)
Fight won by hixxy 94 to 60! FOTN!
Couchwarrior (6-7) vs Big_Charm (5-5)
Fight won by Big_Charm 94 to 58!
Thanks for playing everybody. The highest scorer on this show was a hixxy/Big_Charm tie with 94 points. If you like Rousey vs Kaufman and the other fights next month hope you come back to pick!
