UFC 153 is in the books! With no Main or Co-Main, we were served with another shuffled card. Not that it mattered too much, the Brazilians always put on a show. Tonight was no exception. Well, there was a few exceptions...

• Luiz Cane. Ffs, Cane looked like shit out there last night, and looked like he was scared shitless all fight. 2 back to back losses in Rio and 1 win in 5 isn't lookin good.
• Wagner Prado. Prado looked much better in his previous, albeit shorter, first 'fight' with Phil Davis. Last night he just looked timid and very nervous.
• Will the real Erica Silva please stand up. Yes Fitch is a beast, but that just just didn't look like a performance he will be proud of.
  

All the other Brazilians really did put on a show however. And lets not forget their opponents, who also made this event so entertaining. Lots of all out wars out there last night! Gambino, Maldonaldo and Trinaldo. If your gonna lose a fight, this is how ya do it. Awesome. Oi, Pee-wee. Jits don't work on you eh?
What more is there to say about Anderson Silva? The fucker literally only has to hit you once and that's it. Savage!!

Top 3

Top 3 was shared by two players.

3rd Place:

IrishKev

Once again for a 2nd successive week Kev finishes in 3rd place. Nice bit of consistency after missing his picks 2 events ago. Nice one kid. Imagine if you had the avg 45 points from that, you would be well up the table..

• Scored 76 points.
• Went 9/12 correct.
• Had 2 perfects Tibau and Fitch.
• 22 hot points.
• #519 out of 1948

Also in 3rd place

tr8k

For the 3rd time this season Tr8k finishes on the podium. And has yet to score below 50 points. Showin crazy consistency and no signs of givin up any points, Tr8k is quite simply, the one to beat!

Well done.

• Scored 76 points
• Went 8/12 with a better rounds method than Kev.
• Had 2 perfects. Nog and Fitch.
• 22 Hot points
• #519 out of 1948

Runner-up

fulch

Taking 2nd place for the first time is Fulch. He has reached 3rd place once before this season. A remarkable score that would probably have won on any other event. However, with that score he is catapulted to the top 3 overall.

Impressed I am!

• Scored 87 points
• Went 10/12 correct.
• Had 3 perfects. Nog, Silva and Bezzera.
• 22 Hot points.
• #180 out of 1948

Winner, Numero Uno, Top dog!

scott1

Havin previously never finishin in the top 3 this season, Scott1 makes his podium debut in emphatic style. It was a close finish this event, but breakin the 90 mark is a wonderous achievement, considering his previous best was 57. Had a really sensible approach and only went for one of the underdogs (Prado), which ultimately was his only wrong selection.

Very, very well done!! Congrats fella!

• Scored 92 points
• Went 11/12 correct.
• Had 2 perfects. Camozzi and Tibau.
• 22 Hot points
• #81 out of 1948

Shit-Picker!!

Geno_Gargles_Grims_Balls

Well, here's a turn up for the books it must be said. Grims completely shat the bed this event. I had thought that maybe scorin so badly, he must have made like, 4 picks. But no, Grims made them all, and fucked up on 8 fights!

With 20 points, Grimreaper is this weeks Shit-Picker!

Wolfman comin 2nd last with 45 is also pretty carzy tbh!!

Hot-Bout

Not exactly split evenly, but for the first time ever, whoever picked the hot-bout, all got max points.

Event scores.

Current league standings

Tr8k keeps hold of top spot. Bons lets 2nd place slip and is now down to 3rd. Fulch commandeers 2nd place. Grims really lost out this event. Ninja is still sniffin around and and Scott1 is right in the mix also. Kev has improved but hard to say how much better he could have been.

Knock out Tournament Results. Round 2

Round 3 Qualifiers:

• Pride V Kg12
• Tr8k V Fosforito
• Karpentero V BNF
• Detroit Drew V Kimuralloverurface

Round 3 and they are all pretty evenly matched. Except for Karp. Your luck has well and truly run out now.
