This is the first official week. All of your points count toward the final scoring amount. Whoever has the most at the end wins. It is expected that we will have 8 people participating in this Fantasy MMA contest meaning, that everyone will contribute $20.

1st Place = $100

2nd Place = $40

3rd Place = $20

This amount is subject to change and it is an estimate that is strictly based on the number of people that submit their picks by the deadline Friday.

COMMENT ON THIS POST (using the comment box at the very bottom of this post) submit your Top 5 selections in order of who you want to earn the highest percentage of points, list your selections from 1-5.

Remember the Lock of the Night could either earn or lose double the points for you. Be strategic with your pick!

I highly recommend select one alternate (a 6th person) just in case there’s an injury or some circumstance where you fighter could not compete. Otherwise the person that statistically has the best odds of winning that is available will be your automatic replacement.

Preseason Scores

Posted on by Gerald N.

****An error was made on Spencer’s ticket. The original odds that I sent out had Luis Pena available for selection, the posted odds did not. There was miscommunication on my part. Spencer’s will be credited for the original odds that he received for the Pena fight (-185)

In the future I will review all fight cards and any errors found I will address you ASAP to make the necessary changes.

Final Scores

Gerald: 38.56

Spencer: 24.3

Nikko: 22.59

Brandon: -6.4

OG: -9.47

These scores will not count towards your overall score. The real scoring begins next week and the points accumulated will carry over to towards your overall score throughout the month of March.
