Week Eleven Review

Tomasz Adamek is a two-weight world champion, and therefore clearly no mug, but he was no match for Vitali Klitschko. Simply too small to compete, Adamek did well to last as long as he did but was never going to beat the bigger man.

Paul McCloskey should change his name to McLucky, after a terrible start he somehow managed to turn things round (helped no doubt by the home crowd cheering every punch he threw, let alone landed) and get a controversial decision against Breidis Prescott.

Some very high scores this week, even without the McCall / Cooper result, which is not in yet. which is now a voided fight.

When will I learn not to use fights from these back-water third-world countries?

'Predictor of the Week' is a tricky one this week, with Mind the windows Tino., alma, licence_007 and Reborn-DeeMcK-Reborn all getting all four fights spot on and amassing 16 points each. As it's impossible to split them, this week's award goes to Michaels, Sean, who, despite all the points on offer, still only managed a paltry 3 points. Took some doing that, well done Sean.

For any newcomers and the forgetful, scoring and rules as follows :

• Predict the winner - 1 point

• - Predict the method (KO*/Pts) - 1 point

• - - Predict Early / Late (for KO) or Unanimous / Split / Majority (for Pts) - 1 point

• Get all three above correct - 1 bonus point

• 10 points will be awarded for correctly predicting a draw.

• *TKO, DQ, TD or Retirement all count as KO

• I will list fights 1 - 5, this list will be definitive, when predicting please list fights in the same order.

• If a fight is cancelled, or if a fighter drops out and is replaced, that fight is then void.

I think that just about covers it, any questions feel free to ask.

How did my post end up above yours Tino, now makes me look like I am Derek Acorah or a simpleton who talks to himself.

I think Tino made a 'Michaels' of the quotey bit, deleted his post and then reposted it.

This thread is going to split into another one isn't it, due to all the guff that has taken it up to 20 pages.

Arse.

So I haven't developed a sixth sense, pity could be a useful tool in a prediction competition

If you did you wouldn't be below Union Cane, a man who by most peoples estimations (not mine) knows nothing about boxing.

Spot on Union. Made a total balls up of it and didn't want to fess up incase it made me look a bit, well, thick. Would hate to live up to Rowley's expectations of me.

Are you suggesting we cut down the non prediction related comments to minimum to preserve its status?

Yes, of course you can.

Come on Union, you are being being very tiresome this morning.

I have been nothing but friendly to you recently as well. A little of love from you wouldn't go amiss.

Union would do well to remember who supported him when his cup competition looked likely to descend into farce, such short memories on here.

You two are only sticking together as you have both been owned by the Boston strongman on numerous occasions.

I was actually supporting you for a change Tino, I should not have to legislate for the fact you are too thick to work that out.

I didn't read it properly. You are quite right, I did support his cup competition, in fact I was the second person to join from memory. Second only to the desperate and shambolic man that is Seany.

There is a fine line between banter and the emotional harm caused by bullying. I hope the MODS are well on top of this.

Of course we are.

Each member of the mod and admin teams has volunteered to be placed on a rota so that counselling sessions can be conducted between 7pm and 8pm every weekday evening.

You see, we do care.

Windy, can I ask you a question? Were you on the Southbank in London on Sunday? Sean thinks he saw you.

And also, I know you two go way back, but Rowley called me thick. Can you administer a stern telling off please?

So sorry to disappoint, Tino, but I do prefer my ladies to have a fine head of hair, pensioners or not.

Alas, jeff, your kindness in giving me a lift to Reno all those years ago must temporarily be forgotten as I ask you to write, one hundred times :

I must not refer to Tino as ' thick.'

By the end of breaktime, please.

ok

It's a fair cop windy, if for no other reason than with Josh Smith on board and likely to unleash more articles on a par with his Langford article do feel there are far more deserving victims for my vitriol.

Cheers.

I have surprised myself if I'm honest, but then I am running the competition.

It's good to know I'm so highly thought of.

You've have chosen to ignore this poster's comments as he knows nothing about boxing

The new filter option looks like it is working.

You managed to quote properly!

"You've have?" We should get them to change that.
