HF Fantasy MMA: UFC 144

[NickDoh]

Welp, nobody did amazing amazing on this card but lakingsfan19 did enough to win plus get a part of all 3 bonuses to win it by a clear margin. I believe it's the biggest margin of victory thus far.

*The best anybody could muster was 4 of 7 fighters correct and 6 of us got it.
*lakingsfan19 was the only to manage 5 of 7 distances correct.
*lakingsfan19 was the only one to get 6 of 7 finishes correct.

No really fun facts besides that we didn't suck THAT bad compared to the 5fight cards, but I was expecting the numbers a bit higher. Lots of upsets will do that though. Were some hard fights to pick besides Akiyama/Shields going the distance and us brave folks picking Hunt in Rd 1!

I really wanted to pick Hunt for the 1st rd KO too, but I thought that I've gone for enough upsets in this comp as it is that it wasn't worth it, take the safe bet. Yep, that worked well, haha.
So happy Hunt won though!

This was one of the hardest cards to pick in my opinion, not only in who would win but in the way it would finish as well because the fighters were so evenly matched.

I think Sheilds would have subbed Akiyama if he hadn't grabbed the fence 3 times to keep from being taken down late in the 3rd rd. Hunt was a big suprise for me and Hioki looked fantastic after looking pretty bad in his first UFC apperance, nobody would have predicted the comeback of Boetsch either. Thought it was a great night of fights though and well worth the money spent.

Hopefully I'll do better Friday night!

100% agree about Shields and Boetsch. Both hurt me bad in the standings as I had Shields sub in 3rd and Okamia decision. Also when I heard Rampage was hurt and missed weight I thought about switching to Bader Decision, but bought into the Rampage being in Japan wouldn't lose talk.

I thought the UFC on Fuel TV 1 was the hardest. That one kicked my azz.

I did pretty bad in that one too, even worse than you seeing as how I only scored 20pts and you got 22. Overall though I was pretty confident in my picks for that one, just didn't turn out the way I predicted. This one though I had a real hard time with, and it shows.
