Razor is fitting for blaydes. Cos he cuts people with those sharp elbows. Some of the most brutal ground and pound in mma when he goes for it

@Greg, just curious here, as it’s really not too relevant to anything, but how do draws play into pick %?  Is it just a wrong pick or a wash?  


Cause I definitely would’ve selected draw for the Murphy fight 🤥

@loudenSwain a draw is not included in your pick percentage.  if you have the following picks:

- picked fight A << correct
- picked fight B << incorrect
- picked fight C << DRAW

your pick percentage is 50%.  1/2.  Not 1/3.
