The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 16 - Week 10

The Boxing Bulletin — Mon, 13 May 2013 16:54:12 -0000

We've got plenty of action to close the season, with the much anticipated junior-welterweight showdown between Lucas Matthysse and Lamont Peterson topping the bill. The Showtime card also gives us a couple of welterweight match-ups, with Devon Alexander facing off with Lee Purdy and Shawn Porter going up against Phil LoGreco.

Also on the line-up are two match-ups from Mexico, with Pablo Cesar Cano taking on Shane Mosley and an interesting flyweight clash between Edgar Sosa and Giovanni Segura.

Friday's action features a show from Russia, with Alexander Povetkin taking on Andrzej Wawrzyk in a heavyweight match-up, and a cruiserweight clash between Denis Lebedev and Guillermo Jones. Also on Friday is a WealthTV card from Quebec, and we're offering a special prop style selection for that one.

Wrapping up a busy weekend is the latest installment of the Prizefighter Series, with 8 cruiserweights battling it out on Sky in the elimination tournament.

Pick'em Game: Season 16 - Week 8 Standings

The Boxing Bulletin — Mon, 06 May 2013 04:45:34 -0000

It's been a tough season and week 8 was no exception, with plenty of players failing to put points on the board. Amid the struggles, HandsOfStone98 stepped up with a big 47 points, thanks to a 5 for 8 week that included a triple on Abner Mares by stoppage.

Taking second was knibilnats (6 for 6, 1 double) with 39.5, followed by Skeletor1982 (4 for 7, 2 doubles) in third with 34.5, Hoosier (4 for 10, 1 triple & 1 double) in fourth with 28.5 and BoxAnne (3 for 6, 1 triple) in fifth with 26. The rest of the weekly top ten had BrianBrock at 25.5, SilkyJohnson001 25.5, haer10 25, ringsidewriter 24.5 and bigmac10 with 23.5.

Pick Breakdowns

Pick the winner: 27 players scored on either Mayweather straight-up (6) or via decision (21), with 18 losing points on Mayweather via KO (5) or Guerrero (13).

Over/Under: This selection provided plenty of points this week with 32 players correctly calling the Over and only 6 losing out on the Under

Mares/Ponce: Only 6 players scored points on the stoppage victory by Abner Mares with 5 taking Mares straight-up and only 1 (HandsOfStone98) taking the KO route. A total of 38 players lost points on the fight, with 20 taking Mares via decision and another 18 going with Ponce de Leon to pull the upset.

Rosado/Love: This proved a stumbling block for most players as only 12 players took J'Leon Love... 29 lost points on Gabriel Rosado. And yes, the decision was slightly controversial, but going against the promoter's fighter is always risky in the pick'em game.

Klitschko/Pianeta: Only 10 players scored points by taking Klitschko to win within 6 rounds.. and the big guy just barely did it. A total of 30 players lost points on the fight with 14 taking Klitschko to win between rounds 7-12, 15 via decision, and 1 going with Pianeta to pull off a miracle.

Over/Under: 23 players lost points by taking the over (6 1/2 or 8 1/2), while only 8 scored points on the under.

Despite a less than spectacular week, last season's champion motowneast takes over the top spot with 172.5 points. It was a struggle for AGLA, with last week's overall leader dropping to second with 159.5 after losing points, while DegGergis holds onto third spot at 142, despite also scoring in the negatives.

MmaJunki edges up from fifth to fourth with 133.5, while Hoosier climbs a few spots, going from eighth to fight with 123.5. The rest of the overall top ten has HandsOfStone98 at 121, RyanSexton 119.5, TheGunslinger27 114.5, Skeletor1982 111.5 and BrianBrock with 99.5.

The Boxing Bulletin — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 22:48:50 -0000

We've got plenty of action for you this week, with Saturday night's Showtime PPV headliner between Floyd Mayweather and Robert Guerrero topping the bill. Along with the pick-the-winner & over-under options, there's a BLH scorecard special too for that one.

Also on the line-up are a couple of undercard match-ups from the PPV, with Abner Mares taking on Daniel Ponce de Leon and Gabriel Rosado going up against J'Leon Love in a 10-round middleweight clash.

Wladimir Klitschko is also back in action on Saturday, taking on Italian southpaw Francesco Pianetta. Please note the KO options for this one vary between rounds 1-6 and 7-12. The undercard features Irish based Cuban heavyweight Mike Perez looking to extend his unbeaten record against Travis Walker in a 10-rounder.

The last bout on the line-up is a Thursday night match-up between Mauricio Herrera and Ji-Hoon-Kim, so don't delay in making your selections for that one.

The Boxing Bulletin — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:54:19 -0000

****Post Update Apologies to BrianBrock, this week's top player with a whopping 87 points. I accidentally entered another player's score in place of Brian's numbers this week. The big total came on a 5 for 6 week, with successful triples on Garcia by decision, Over 8 1/2 in Garcia-Judah, and a double on Martinez by decision. - A.F.****

It was a huge week for motowneast, with the defending champion racking up 78.5 points on a 5 for 7 tally, that included a triple on Sergio Martinez by decision and a double on Danny Garcia by decision.

DerGergis grabbed second spot with 52.5, while AGLA put up and impressive 50.5 in third place. Fourth went to tripp444 with 48, followed by molsondet in fifth at 47.

The rest of the weekly top ten had Radu at 44.5, RyanSexton 44.5, SilkyJohnson001 43.5, sp0rtsfan86 42.5 and Corey Erdman with 40.5.

Pick Breakdowns

Pick the winner: 22 players scored on either Martinez straight-up (10) or via decision (12), with 27 losing points on Martinez via KO (23) or Murray (4).

Over/Under: This selection provided plenty of points this week with 34 players correctly calling the Over, while only 6 lost out on the Under

Arreola/Stiverne: A total of 19 players scored big on heavy underdog Bermane Stiverne. For the 29 others that liked Chris Arreola (3 straight-up, 13 via KO, 13 via decision) in this one, it was bad news.

Abregu-Decarie: This proved another tough one, with only 16 players scoring points on either Abregu straight-up (7) for via decision (9). A total of 29 players lost points, with many (23) liking the KO option for the favorite.

Garcia/Judah pick the winner: This one proved the trickiest fight of all to pick, with only 9 players scoring points (3 took Garcia straight-up, with 6 going with Garcia via decision). Many liked Garcia by stoppage (14), though most players (26) took Judah to win..

Quillin/Guerrero: 27 players scored points on either Qullin straight-up (7) or via stoppage (20), with 19 players losing out on either Quillin via decision (11) or Guerrero (8) to win.

Khan/Diaz: The majority of players emerged with points on this one with 24 players either taking Khan straight-up (8) or via decision (16). A total of 19 lost out on taking Khan via KO (14) or Diaz (5).

Wilder/Harrison: A total of 26 players (4 straight-up, 22 via KO) gained points on Wilder, with only 12 losing points (8 players took a chance on Audley).

Thanks to a good week, AGLA holds onto to the top spot on the overall leaderboard with 181 points.

Closing in on the lead is motowneast, as last season's winner moves from fifth place into second with 165. Another solid week means DerGergis is still very much in it with 164.5 in third spot. RyanSexton jumps from eighth into fourth with 124, while MmaJunki edges up from sixth into fifth at 118.

The rest of the overall top ten has sp0rtsfan86 at 102.5, TheGunslinger27 101, Hoosier 95, Sam5001 92.5 and DrHenrik with 85.

The Boxing Bulletin — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 22:08:03 -0000

We've got a busy weekend of action for you with 7 fights on the pick'em line-up.

HBO heads to Argentina for the homecoming of Sergio Martinez. The middleweight champion last fought in his native country way back in 2002, and can be assured of a big crowd when he takes on Martin Murray in the main-event. We've added an over-under for this one.

The show also features another Argentinian in Luis Carlos Abregu, with the welterweight contender taking on Antonin Decarie. Completing the split-site triple-header is a heavyweight match-up from California between sluggers Chris Arreola and Bermane Stiverne.

Showtime has a busy card as well, with Danny Garcia headlining the action against Zab Judah in Brooklyn. As with Martinez-Murray, we've got an over/under for this one too. The main supporting bout features big hitting Peter Quillin going up against Fernando Guerrero in a middleweight clash. Also on the broadcast will be a 140lb match-up between Amir Khan and Julio Diaz (on tape delay, live on Box Nation).

The BoxNation show also features American heavyweight prospect Deontay Wilder taking on Audley Harrison.

The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 16 - Week 6

The Boxing Bulletin — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 06:40:44 -0000

The first half of our season has been rough sailing for many players, but don't despair as there's still plenty of time left to mount a comeback - and with a ton of action on this week's line-up, now could be the moment to do it. Post a 50 or 60 point (or more) score on Saturday - and we see those totals all the time - and you're right back in the race, no matter how poorly you might be doing so far!

Topping the bill is the highly anticipated 154lb showdown between Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and Austin Trout. Along with the pick-the-winner and method-of-victory options, we've got an Over/Under for this one. Also on the line-up is the telecast's main supporting bout, featuring undefeated prospects Omar Figueroa and Abner Cotto.

Next up is heavyweight action from New York, where Tyson Fury makes his US debut against former Cruiserweight king Steve Cunningham. We've got an Over/Under for this one too. Another potentially good fight on the line-up has a couple of top 10 super-bantamweights meeting in Mexico with Victor Terrazas taking on Cristian Mijares.

Rounding out the game-sheet is the FNF main-event between Javier Fortuna and Miguel Zamudio, along with action from the UK, featuring Nathan Cleverly taking on Robin Krasniqi and Brian Rose going up against Joachim Alcine.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 16 - Week 4

The Boxing Bulletin — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 06:05:23 -0000

We've got a full slate of pick'em action this week for you, with all the fights taking place in Asia. Please remember the type difference when filling out your selections - especially the Saturday show from Macao, as it's being carried by HBO on tape delay. While the broadcast start time is 2 PM EST, the fights will likely begin around 4-5 hours earlier!

Saturday's action features the world's top rated flyweight Brian Viloria going up against young Juan Francisco Estrada of Mexico. Also on the show is an intriguing 130lb encounter between the always tough Rocky Martinez and undefeated southpaw Diego Magdaleno. Plus, Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. takes on Yasutaka Ishimoto in a super-bantamweight match-up.

The action moves to Osaka on Sunday, with Koki Kameda taking on Panomroonglek Kaiyanghadaogym, though the real good stuff looks to be Monday's triple-header in Tokyo. All 3 bouts appear well matched on paper, with Shinsuke Yamanaka squaring off against veteran Malcolm Tunacao in the main-event. On the undercard, world flyweight champion Toshiyuki Igarashi puts his lineal crown on the line against Akira Yaegashi, while Gamaliel Diaz, fresh off last October's upset of Takahiro Ao will look to go 2 for 2 in Japan when he battles Takashi Miura in a 130lb match-up.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

An explanation of how to fill out your selections appears at the bottom of this post - please follow these instructions as it makes it easier for us to tabulate the results quickly each week.

Also on Friday, Odlanier Solis will look to get back in the heavyweight title picture when he goes up against undefeated Norwegian big man Leif Larsen. ESPN2's FNF main-event round's out the day's action, with Donovan George taking on David Lopez in a 10-rounder.

We've got a Thursday match-up on the line-up too, this one from Ukraine, with Viktor Postol hosting Henry Lundy in a junior-welterweight clash.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 16 - Week 1

The Boxing Bulletin — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 19:14:00 -0000

With a new season starting this weekend, scores return to 0 for all players... so if the last 10-weeks didn't go so well, no worries, you're right back in it. Before we get to the opening week line-up, congratulations to last season's winner motowneast, taking the crown by a single point, 183.5 to 182.5 over TheDemolitionDan. Hopefully the Season 16 race will be just as exciting... good luck to everyone!

Topping the bill this week is the return of Timothy Bradley in a 147lb clash against Ruslan Provodnikov. We've added an HBO scorecard special for this one to make things a little more interesting. On the same show and perhaps more intriguing - at least from a pick'em perspective - is a battle of undefeated welters, with Jesse Vargas and Wale Omotoso squaring off in a 10-rounder.

In a clash of young light-flyweights, John Riel Casimero travels to Panama to take on Luis Alberto Rios, while in Russia, Denis Shafikov puts his undefeated record on the line against Alisher Rahimov. Rounding out this week's action is a match-up from Mexico between Pablo Cesar Cano and Manuel Perez.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

Pick'em Game: Season Fifteen Final Standings

The Boxing Bulletin — Sun, 10 Mar 2013 22:37:28 -0000

Congratulations to motowneast, the new BLH Pick'em Champion!

The title was decided by the slimmest of margins with the winner holding only a single point edge on TheDemolitionDan,183.5 to 182.5. The battle to the finish almost had a different ending as our runner-up appeared uncertain on the Purdy-Rivera fight, first writing in Purdy by stoppage, only to change the pick a minute late to the British fighter by decision. The switch proved costly as Purdy won via a 9th round TKO... and with that result, the championship slipped from the grasp of a one-time winner into the hands of a rookie.

Third place went to serge campbell with 176, while A.F. and DrHenrik came on very strong in the final week to finish fourth and fifth respectively with 171 and 157.5.

Sixth spot went to another rookie in dadaboat10 with 138, followed by week 9 frontrunner EndoEnderson, stumbling badly in the final week to finish seventh at 134.5. Taking eighth was sp0rtsfan86 at 132.5, followed by first time player molsondet in ninth at 124, and cheetahpants in tenth with 120.

****The top 40 players all received Player of the Year points. Scroll down to the bottom for those standings.****

It took one of the best weeks we've ever seen in the game to grab weekly honors, with DrHenrik posting an amazing 89 points. The big score came on a 8 for 9 tally, that included 4 successful doubles and a triple for good measure.

Also posting a huge score was A.F. (5 for 7, 2 doubles & 3 triples) in second with 81, while mrhidley (7 for 9, 2 doubles & 1 triple) in third at 64.5 and TheDemolitionDan (6 for 9, 3 doubles & 1 triple) in fourth at 60.5 also put up impressive numbers. Fifth spot went to tylerj19 (4 for 9, 1 double & 1 triple) with 41, followed by the rest of the weekly top ten, serge campbell 39.5, dadaboat 38, motowneast 37, notclements 35 and cheetahpants with 34.5.

The Boxing Bulletin — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 03:06:37 -0000

Only one week to go, and the title race is still wide open. If you're a little farther back in the standings, this week still holds value in determining POTY points, so don't miss out on getting your selections in.

We've got a packed line-up to close the season, with light-heavyweights Tavoris Cloud and Bernard Hopkins topping the bill on HBO's Saturday night main-event. The supporting bout features Keith Thurman taking a step up in class against tough veteran Jan Zaveck. Also on Saturday, HBO Latino has an interesting 130lb rematch between Juan Carlos Salgado and Argenis Mendez, while Sky has Darren Barker taking on Simone Rotolo and Lee Purdy going up against late replacement Cosme Rivera.

On Friday, heavyweight prospect Magomed Abdusalamov looks to stay unbeaten against Victor Bisbal on FNF, while Shobox has Hugo Centeno Jr taking on Keandre Leatherwood.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 15 - Week 9

The Boxing Bulletin — Thu, 28 Feb 2013 03:17:59 -0000

Only two weeks to go in the season, and the title race is wide open. And for those players a little farther back in the standings, there's still plenty to play for, with POTY points up for grabs (for a breakdown of how POTY points work, please check the rules link in the box below).

We've got 6 fights on the line-up this weekend with action from all over the world.

Friday Night Fights has a double-header featuring Australian featherweight Billy Dib going up against undefeated Russian Evgeny Gradovich in the main-event. Willie Nelson takes on Michael Medina in the 10-round appetizer.

Richard Abril is returning to action for the first time since a controversial loss last April to Brandon Rios. The tricky Cuban takes on unbeaten Sharif Bogere on Saturday night in Showtime's main-event. Also on Saturday is an intriguing match-up from the Philippines between a couple highly rated little men, as Donnie Nietes squares off with visiting Moises Fuentes of Mexico in what could be the weekend's best bout.

Rounding out the action are a couple of fights from Africa, with Thailnd's Pungluang Sor Singyu taking on undefeated local bantamweight Paulus Ambunda in Namibia, and southpaw Chris van Heerden hosting Matthew Hatton in South Africa.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

Pick'em Game: Season 15 - Week 8 Standings

The Boxing Bulletin — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 19:37:45 -0000

It was a disastrous week for many pick'em players, with triples on David Price resulting in some of the lowest scores we've ever seen in the game. Amid the carnage, TheDemolitionDan stepped up with a monster score, throwing down 75 points, thanks an 8 for 10 week that included Audley Harrison's Prizefighter win and the ShoBox upset posted by Alejandro Perez on Friday night. Our weekly winner was also perfect on extra base picks, going 2 for 2 on doubles and adding a successful triple on Ishe Smith's win over K9 Bundrage.

There were a few other good scores too, with motowneast (2 for 4, 1 double & 1 triple) putting up 37 points in second, and BoxAnne (5 for 7, 1 triple) taking third with 32.5. Saint Santos (4 for 10, 1 double & 1 triple) grabbed fourth spot with 26.5, followed by dadaboat10 (2 for 7, 1 double & 1 triple) in fifth at 22.5.

Only 4 other players finished above the 10-point bonus mark, with nickfoxx and RedT (the only player to pick Tony Thompson) at 15.5, PhinsAllDay 14.5 and EndoEnderson with 13.

Thanks to their strong weeks, two new players occupy the top spots on the overall leaderboard. Jumping from ninth into first with 130 points is motowneast, while TheDemolitionDan made a remarkable move, going all the way from thirty-seventh into second spot with 125.5. EndoEnderson slips a spot into third, but is still right in the thick of things at 124.5.

Previous leader serge campbell drops to fourth with 122 after a rough week, followed by molsondet in fifth at 107.5 and knibilnats in sixth with 103.5. The rest of the overall top ten has sp0rtsfan86 at 103, Saint Santos 94, tripp44 90 and dadaboat10 with 89.5.

The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 15 - Week 7

The Boxing Bulletin — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 19:19:47 -0000

HBO's offering this Saturday between Adrien Broner and Gavin Rees is far from the ideal pick'em headliner, so to make things a little more interesting, along with an over/under pick, we've added a BLH score-card option too. Also on the line-up from the same show is a super-middleweight match-up between Sakio Bika and Nikola Sjekloca.

Rounding out this weekend's action is a 154lb FNF headliner between Delvin Rodriguez and George Tahdooahnippah and a super-bantamweight clash from Mexico between Alejandro Lopez and Jonathan Romero.

For those that haven't played before, welcome to the best pick'em game going. Please join right in and start playing (just make sure to check out the rules - we promise they are very simple).

An explanation of how to fill out your selections appears at the bottom of this post - please follow these instructions as it makes it easier for us to tabulate the results quickly each week.
