The second quarterly UFC competition is coming right up.  We don't know yet who's going to win the first one as it will be a photo finish in the last weekend, but it's not too early to look ahead.  As before, * 5000 *  points go to the winner. 

The competition will be fierce... UFC quarterly competitions will be among 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 black belt to bring home the big prize, or an unknown orange belt who's been anonymous to this point but knows how to crush it on Zuffa cards? Only time will tell.

Good luck.

Thanks dude... It looks like I should get a "point" finish in the weekend contest too.  Right now I'm in 1st, but that never holds up!

I know the feeling, lately it seems like after the first few events I'm right there at the top and by the end of it I fall back to my normal 35-15th place range

@Pierce said there were still 40 fights left to be scored (I didn't check)... I could end up not even placing in a "point" slot...
