So Leonard Garcia should never be picked again because he was on the receiving end of a Twister? haha........it's just one of those freak moments of brilliance that not alot of fighters could have survived

@jaffacake, George is not getting ko'd in the 1st by cub Swanson. A friendly tidbit of advice is to revise that pick.

I'll probably change this once or twice. Love watching Cub fight, not really a big fan of his or anything but he's pretty entertaining. Roop could just as easily take it as well, I have Cub taking a narrow decision for now.

Roop always wins the fights he's not supposed to, so I'm going with the underdog.

BW rankings are all topsy turvy now. Hominick got a title shot with a 5 fight win streak: Savant Young, Bryan Caraway, Yves Jabouin, Leonard Garcia, and George Roop. Now that he's been KOed by the zombie who was KOed by Roop who KOed Grispi who subbed Mark and then throw in the KZ/Garcia bouts and Roop's draw with Garcia - WHAT A CLUSTER**** :)

Prediction: wrong Roop   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

@Mulefloyd I think you mean FW rankings. For me it's always about what have you done for me lately. Weighted scale of quality of win (Your rank vs your opponents rank at the time of fight) combined with How recently the fight happened. Huge upsets always seem to throw things out of whack but make the big move with the fighters things will sort things out later.
