Here is how it works. You pick 20 fighters. It lasts a year. You start with 10,000 Monopoly dollars. This game is based on the fighters and the moneylines. Whoever has the most money is the winner. I'll use this fight as an example. Jason miller is +185. Say you choose him and wager 500 dollars. that would return 925 dollars in profit  if he won and your total would be 10,925. If you choose Bisping and he is around -225 and you wagered 675 dollars on him and he won you would get 300 dollars profit and you would have 10,300. Of course if they lose you would deduct what you lost from 10,000. no draft either. Pick any 20 fighters you want and send them to me or Poir420 who is co-comish.

 

A couple of rules are you have to wager at least 500 dollars per fight. There is no max so if you think that fighter has no chance of losing put all your "fake" monopoly money on him. if you lose thats the end of the game for you. You will need some money management skills to win. You can pick as many women as you want too. If a fighter gets injured there are no replacements. So you start with 20 and might end up with 10 left if you have bad luck. I got three people interested so far and i was goig to have 10 people  play but if there is more interest i will raise the number of people on Tapology that can play. Since this is off the top of my head just ask me a question if you don't get it and want to particpate. Thank You.

Never a good idea to put so much money on such heavy favorites in MMA. Not worth it.

edit, never mind, just realized this isn't real money haha.

I am extremely confident in these fights, If I'm wrong I'm wrong but I'm trying to get as much cheese as I can so I can drop a fat stack on Cyborg.

I think Rogerio pretty close to a lock against Tito. He sprawled real nice against Davis for a round and Bader for the second two, and I believe Tito is worse than both of those guys, and probably worse on the feet too. Not to mention Nogueira's sprawl has improved a ton between each fight, from Brilz to Bader then Bader to Davis. If it makes similar improvements Tito won't be able to take him down, and he can't win on the feet.

Mir is kind of a safe pick as well. In their respective primes Nog would win easily, but today he is broken down and slow. He looked ok against Schuab compared to some of his fights before that, but he was still pretty slow. Nog can win if he can get takedowns, or if Mir gasses, or if he comes in looking young, but most likely Mir outspeeds him on the feet.

Jones is like a 4 to 1 favorite over Machida. I think he's rightfully the favorite but Machida has a better chance than the odds show.

a added bonus to the wagering game. you can drop one fighter for another once in the entire year. that way if a new guy  is on fire in another organization and gets the call up to the ufc or bellator you can grab him. just once though. poir420 will keep track. i already have somebody in mind. this was poir420's idea too. he gets the credit.

I will keep track of if you made a trade or not on your tab in the spreadsheet so that way we will know if someone forgets and tries to do it twice!

I'm not sure yet, I'll probably wait a little bit, let a cpl of my other fighters fight. Or if I see a moneyline I really like on a card, might just pick him up on a spur of the moment type thing.
