Wolf your problem is always taking 1 or 2 10% dogs per card trying to win. Yeah it will get you a win now and then but a lot of the time you are doing it on fights where one guy has absolutely no chance, it hurts you way more than it helps you.

Messiah, shut up. Who are you to tell him how to pick? They're his picks not yours.

did we not see a 1% guy win last night. they happen all the time on the bottom of the card. i will continue to do so. everything works in cycles and my wins will start to come again. btw i have hit a 1% a 2% and many 3 % fighters picked by tapology and the last 3% one was jon hawk whose fight won me the bellator event and i got gregory to change that hideous pic of him that made him look like he was 45 years old. its a good pic now. thanks for the advice but i march to a different drummer.

@oldnick who the **** are you to tell me what to type? Yeah, cuts both ways. Shutup and quit butting into the forum and posting only to try and undercut me, Seriously that's the only time you post. So quit stalking me, thanks.

@wolf my point wasn't not to ever take underdogs, but doing so just because they are a underdog isn't going to end you up with more points. If you research a fight and based on that you think the guy has a good chance to win even at 10% or less, then go for him. But I envision you going through a card coming to the last fight and seeing its 93-7 and being oh well I havent picked an underdog and boom. You make that pick, that's all I was saying.

I can get behind something like that, I was just voicing an observation that I've made that you probably pick more huge dogs than anyone on the site, and yeah that does get you a good amount of wins but IN MY OPINION doesn't get you higher in the weekend contests or in the MVP league.

And what would 2 people have to do with you falling to 2nd? 4 people's points don't even count.

@Messiah, I come on these forums maybe once or twice a day... maybe. If you truly feel that I post only to "undercut" you than you greatly mistaken. Calling me a stalker when you are the one talking to me about my facebook and my "hair"? Right. Get over yourself.

It was the first thing I saw and you responded to him after he said "2-0 this will be my event". I mean seriously? What warrants the response you gave him? Are you mad because you missed those picks that Wolf made? Probably, so lets downgrade Wolf for making the right picks? You always play an easy target by rubbing the people the wrong way, or you play the victim once someone calls you out. It gets old.

Hopefully you can help me with my picks next week buddy. =)

And OldNick comes out of hiding over 12 hours later for his next post to be directed towards me again. I've never had a stalker before.

Some more here;
http://www.timesleader.com/stories/Gratalo-remains-undefeated,153113?search_filter=MMA&town_id=1&sub_type=stories

Jackson won the first two rounds to take a unanimous decision from Derek Smith in a meeting of middleweights who were making their debuts.

Zola overcame a penalty point for an illegal strike with his elbow in the first round and posted a majority decision over Billy Magliane in a bantamweight bout.

Wells (5-1) stopped Dennis Maldonado at the end of the first round on a technical knockout for the PA Cage Fight Amateur middleweight title.

Gratalo and Wells won the last two amateur bouts. Gratalo defeated Scranton’s Paul McDonough 30-27 on all three cards. The 21-year-old, a former NCAA Division I wrestler at Lock Haven, controlled most of the middleweight bout, but had to fight off four submission attempts on his left elbow.
