There's no rest for the weary fight prediction fiends on Tapology... we've got 7 events lined up for you to test your MMA knowledge and fill your profiles with points. 

*edit - might only be 6 events if the colisseo event fizzles out*

Weekend lineup:

Legacy FC 7 from Houston, Texas (on HDNet)




Strikeforce Challengers 17 from Last Vegas, Nevada (on Showtime)





CFX 17 from Boston, Massachusetts





Extreme Challenge 188 from Minneapolis, Minnesota





CFA 2 from Miami, Florida





Bellator 47 from Rama, Ontario (on MTV2)





Colosseo CF 6 from Sangudo, Alberta



Contest Prizes:
First place will be 600 points, second place will be 300 points, and third place will be 150 points.

Scoring:
Contest scoring uses regular Tapology scoring. You get 50 points for every fight you pick correctly, and extra points if you perfectly call the fight via decision or the method+round combination.  To score high and have a chance at winning the mini-contest you'll need to pick as many of the fights as possible.

How to enter:
Just pick the fights and you'll be automatically entered. No need to do anything else.

GOOD LUCK!

Nothing wrong with Blue Moon, just don't tell me you bought an orange to slice up and put in it.

@T0rch..LOL! My wife will.. but not me. @Soccer.. at least it isn't "Whusky"... that is what we call lower proof whiskey's. Rum is very easy to drink.. careful.. the bottle will be bare bottom'd in an hour!

I got myself some white overproof (125 proof) rum when I was in Jamaica. That will put some hair on your ass.

Don't mix it with something that makes it taste good. You will wake up behind some bushes across the street.

LOL!  I drank 1/3 of a bottle of 151 and threw up and passed out.  I could only imagine what everclear would do.
