It's getting cool and crisp outside around the Tapology HQ, and that means it's time for the Autumn UFC contest.

The UFC seasonal contests are perhaps the most difficult to win. Information is abundant on almost every fight: betting odds, fight video and more all serve to level the playing field.  Will it be a camo belt to bring home the big prize, or an unknown blue belt who can crush it on Zuffa cards? Only time will tell.

** 30,000 ** points go to the winner. 20,000 points to 2nd place.  And big prizes all the way down to 20th on the leaderboard.

In addition to the Tapology points there is $500 of cold, hard cash given to the competition winner.


Reigning UFC contest champions:
- Spring 2012: tarzan
- Summer 2012: Kalibo
- Autumn 2012: chadderall
- Winter 2013: michaelsilva
- Spring 2013: Rahito
- Summer 2013: stange
- Autumn 2013: IronHorse
- Winter 2014:  dugen
- Spring 2014: inspektor_voss
- Summer 2014: joe kerr


Pick well and good luck.

@rob 130 points behind? it's possible but you'll need to dominate.

Congrats to Strez, well done!

And btw you can get in contact with Greg (for example through the "Talk to Tapology" box on the side of the page) and determine how you want to get paid. iirc both PayPal and regular checks are ok.

joking_joe, the UFC is such a stacked comp that people are packed tightly sometimes within 5 points and sometimes it comes down to a tiebreaker and a single bad card can destroy your chances for the entire season. Being 2nd is no shame.

I'm pretty sure he'll contact you as soon as points go final, don't worry.
