The next season's UFC contest is here!

The UFC seasonal contests are perhaps the most difficult to win. Information is abundant on almost every fight: betting odds, fight video and more will level the playing field. The winners will need to out-wit and out-analyze the rest of the website. 

While few members are criminally insane enough to pick hundreds of regional fights in a single weekend, there are vast numbers willing to come on and throw down on some UFC picks.

Will it be a coral belt to bring home the big prize, or an unknown orange belt who knows how to crush it on Zuffa cards? Only time will tell. 

Reigning UFC competition champions:
- Spring 2012: tarzan
- Summer 2012: Kalibo
- Autumn 2012: chadderall
- Winter 2013: michaelsilva
- Spring 2013: Rahito
- Summer 2013: stange

In addition to the Tapology points there is $500 of cold, hard cash given to the competition winner.

Pick well and good luck.

Olexei Tolchev has been mathematically eliminated.  Good run, good job.

It won't hurt as bad if the Title changes hands, but right now I am thinking about how the **** DID I PICK CODY MCKENZIE?????????????


That will haunt me for a couple hours.

I'm still on Team Blue Frog. You'll get them next time, breaux!


Also, even his shorts didn't pick Cody McKenzie.

I am super confused. His profile says that he only has 90 picks but yet he somehow had 103 picks for this comp. What am I missing??

Forget the Tapology points, IronHorse, you just won 500 of actual real life American Dollars which I'm sure you know what to use for.
