Ok so I saw this on another MMA site and thought it would be fun to try on here.

It's pretty simple really, I will pick one fight on the upcoming UFC card, so for this week on the UFC 153 the match I would chose is Jon Fitch vs. Erick Silva.  You pick who you think wins, you get it right you move on to the next round you get it wrong your out.

Now I don't know how many people are interested in this or how long it will take so for now I would say after 3 events of a single fight pick then I would switch to 2 fights a card. 3 cards later it would go to 3 fights a card etc.

Anyone can join but once the first week starts no one can join until the next one. If you join and forget to make your pick for a fight then you would be out. Once you make your pick that is who you are going with, no editing of posts!

In the case of a draw everyone would move on to the next round.

Who thinks they can survive???

Post in here with your pick and you will be added to the spreadsheet for the first week of Tapology Survivor 1!

I'm picking Kampmann. I want him to lose but strategically, he would be the best pick in this game as it now forces Swick to either go alone on Hendricks or join us with Kampmann, and then we all have to make another pick.

Or there could be 3 of us left. If Kampmann wins I think the next event I will have to choose 2 match ups to pick to help narrow it down.

Congrats to Swick and LOL at this only taking 3 weeks. Poir, you're obviously far too good at picking difficult to call fights.

This was an interesting concept poir. Really liked it, and I like the fact that this game doesn't have the need to devote much time to it, so I'm still able to be competitive (even though I totally sucked in this one, lol). I'd like to be in the next one as well.
