    i agree with bilbo that there shouldn't be any difference between a ko and a tko.

    I think it may be best to modify the rule so that if your fighter wins via decision you will not lose any points.
    Your feedback would be appreciated.
    I'll leave this up for the week.
    Of course, majority vote wins in either case.
    I'm easy - but sounds like a good change!
    i'm also amenable to those changes.

    I'm with the no difference between KO/TKO, a guy can be totally out of it, drag himself to his feet before 10 and have the fight stopped and it's called a TKO. I don't think somebody should be penalized because somebody made it to his feet at 9 or whatever. Just my opinion. But I don't care if the rules stay the same completely, it's still a good contest.

    OK Shadow i was thinking about this last night and the main problem is this....

    if we have 6 fights to pick...

    lets say you pick ko/tko for the 6 fights and all are right apart from 1 fight where the boxer you pick gets ko/tko'd

    you score nothing for picking 5 winners by ko/tko ((not an easy trick)) because of 1 upset

    surely it is normal to have atleast one upset in 6 fights?

    to fix this i think the ko/tko picks should get 2 points and if your fighter loses by ko/tko you should lose only 2 points. and not 5

    then if you get 5 fights right and one wrong out of 6 you get 8 point... this means the KO only and TKO only picks should go up to 4 point each as a double or nothing gamble

    is it rediculous to suggest that we start over because we're now choosing fights without even knowing the scores and penalties....

    I see what you are saying here, but it's a gamble either way. TKO/KO picks could garner 2 points, if that's what the rest of the participants want. But the 5 point deduction for your fighter getting TKO'd or KO'd when you picked your fighter to win via stoppage was in the old system also.
    In terms of Oumafan's observation of the TKO/KO rule:
    Yes, a fighter can get up before the count of 10 and have the fight waved off,
    but that doesn't happen all the time. Legitimate KO's still happen in the sport.
    Although the TKO is more likely. Hence, the point spread difference.
    It's entirely up to you guy's. With the tweeks that I made from the system in place 3 weeks ago, a lot of people have made it out of the red. I must admit that those rules were quite draconian.
    Keep the thread moving along. If enough people want me to change the TKO/KO bonus to + 2, I don't have a problem with that. I do think it would be foolish to change the 5 point deduction if your fighter is picked to win via stoppage and get's stopped. That rule was grandfathered into the old contest and nobody complained about it then.
    As I said before: I've come up with the system but it is open to everyone's input. ALL feedback is valid and will be taken into consideration.

    I hit modify by mistake when I meant to quote you Saddo. :
