Why is he still banging on about this http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/s...ht-5374433 ?

It's not just for publicity either he really wants it! It's stupid though, he has no chance barring a lucky punch and the whole argument of boxers facing MMA artists is NOT relevant at all. It's like saying could Chelsea beat the Chicago Bulls at Basketball or vice-versa?? Of course they couldn't!

Neither can beat the other at their craft unless were talking about it at a really low level but at the highest level of either MMA or Boxing it's pointless. Each would beat the other at their chosen craft.

Fury's daft as a brush mate. He won't last 3 rounds against Haye never mind Cain Velasquez.

Yep and after losing to Haye, he will have to call out Big Country then instead!

A belated congratulations to groundnpound for winning the UFC Openweight Predictions Grand Prix II with a final total of 107, beating my good self by 12 predictions.


Unfortunately this was the last predictions grand prix for the present time as there isn't enough continuous interest in it, I personally will continue to post predictions just for the sake of it.

Thanks to all that have taken part in the last two, even though it was may I say.... A fuckin pain in the arse to sort out, it was a good laugh.

haven't watched ufc before but now I have bt sport, ill give it a go

I'll get us at least 10 predictors in no time Mitchell. If you can't be bothered running it any more that's sound but if its because of the lack of numbers that's easily sorted mate.

UFC's about to EXPLODE!! Why stop now?

I said i would do the predictions when it starts over again. IF it still continues then i am still in. (Just for the record)

I'll have a go
