I am sure many of you have seen the previous thread I made about doing something for the Bellator tournament on September 19. The interest was greater than I had expected, which was a happy surprise. If this goes well and is enjoyable I hope this challenge will become a staple when tournaments are held. So without further ado, here is the..

Tapology Tournament Challenge - aka Gayffindor's Selection Challenge (thank you to GreenHornet553 and shot2thesac for the names, respectively)

RULES:
- Predictions for all possible fights (five) must be posted prior to the start of the event.
- A prediction for the total time (minutes and seconds) of the three fights must be posted prior to the start of the event - this will be used to settle ties. If a tie is still present then the tie will stand.
- We will use Tapology's scoring system.

With Coker announcing the lineup this past Friday, at Bellator 141 we are ready to make our predictions - once again remember to make all possible predictions for the events, any predictions made after the start of the first tournament fight are not allowed.
 

Once again everyone is welcome to join!

Lawal and Vassell are both hurt! So Carmont is fighting Davis. This really ****** things up here; I chose not to include the alternates because 6 predication was already a lot for only 3 fights, but with the alternates it would have been 14 predictions.

So here is the final results.
Michigandolphin wins with 140pts





**** Lawal, Vassell, Fedor, Bellator and UFC (not particularly in that order)

Hopefully the WSOF tournament will work out.

Does the winner get extra points?

@rappinpapsoda, like would michigandolphin get extra points going into WSOF? If that is what you are asking, then no.

No, I mean does the winner get points for the tournament win? Just like extra points for winning a single event.
