Fantasy UFC/Strikeforce/Bellator MMA League

  Welcome to Tapology’s first ever UFC/Strikeforce /Bellator fantasy mma draft, team will pick fighters, two from each weight division (HW,LHW, MW,WW,LW,BW,FTHW,+2 Reserves) Sorry no woman’s division. Fighters performances will gain a team points as shown below.

-Win, over title holder +10, in title defense +7, in main event +6, in main card +4, in undercard +2

-Lose, to title holder +4, in main event +2, in main card -1, in undercard -2

-Bonus , Finish in 1st +2, loser -2, Finish in 2nd +1, loser -1, Finish in 3rd +.5, loser -.5, Draw +0, No Contest +0, KO of Night +2, SUB of Night +2, Fight of the night +1 each fighter.

    The draft will begin as soon as enough people sign up, 12 teams is the target. The draft is in a snake style format.  To fill a team you must fill each weight class with two fighters, reserve can be filled by a fighter of any weight class. Each fighter can only be drafted once, by one team, all Strikeforce/Bellator and UFC fighters are available to be drafted.

    One season runs for one year, each fighter you draft is contracted for 2 fights, this insures that each team is given an equal number of fights, so for example HW spot one is filled by Cain Velasquez, he begins the season with 2 fights, if he does not make two fights you may drop him and add a free agent who will then be contracted with the number of fights Cain had remaining. If Cain has more than two fights you may add a fight to his contract by removing it from another fighter on your team.  In essence each team has 30 (28+2 bonus) fights to play with during a year. Reserves have zero fight contracts if you move a reserve into a weight class he then has the number of fights of the fighter he replaced.

   I will be the commish and will score each fight after it has happened, only UFC , Bellator and Strikeforce events count for points. Trading of fighters is allowed but must be approved by myself the commish. Please feel free to post any questions or suggestions as I am sure this is far from perfect.

added

kenny foster had an easy fight with andy main and then they cancelled it and give him ronnie mann. an easy win to a big upset. its just hard to find good BW's and FW's these days. one good thing is there have been alot of upsets in bellator this past month.
