The next season's UFC competition is here.

The UFC seasonal competitions 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 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. 

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

In addition to the Tapology points being handed out, you may notice a little something extra, ladies and gentlemen:
$500 cold, hard cash to the competition winner.

Pick well and good luck.

I can't believe I changed 3 picks for UFC on Fox 7 and they would have all been perfect dammit.

I was like 79th before tonight.. I shot up to the teens after the 1st 2 or 3 fights.. went to 13, then 15, now I'm 17th.  I'll take it.  If Kongo wins (yes, I picked him), I think I'll move up a tad.

Why does the scoring system keep screwing me?

Unless i'm mistaken, isn't it 50 for a pick, 25 for method, and 25 for round?
