Did these judges just rain on my day is basically what I want to know.....
If you say UD and he gets a MD then you get 2 points. That's why I never specify the type of decision because it's only a 1 point gain (for a UD over a regular Dec) and a 4 point loss. Since that was your joker, you get 4 points for that fight.

I finished second last season mainly because I put Mayweather Dec while almost everyone else put Mayweather UD or picked Oscar, so I ended up winning that week and it really put me in the top half.

Hope I didn't divulge to much there.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aww man I'm so freaking pissed right now. By rights that was a 14 point fight for me and I only get 4

No offense but that rule sucks. If you just pick a fighter to win regardless, neither specifying points, ko, disqualification etc you get 3 points.

How can I only score 2 points even though I correctly predicted a points win just got jobbed by one fucking incompetent judge

Surely I should at least still get 3 points so 6 overall

What a crummy rule
That rule has to be in place, because that rule allows for bigger rewards for someone who can accurately pick a SD or MD.

It'll make you think twice before picking someone UD again right?
