Thanks Dougie!
Mark Bocek - Thanks Dougie!
No worries, Champ!
ttt
Here is how you did:
*SPOILER ALERT*
Perez by tko = Right on the win. Decision though
Story by decision = Right
Leites by decision = Right
Dunham by decision = Wrong. Cerrone by submission
Bagativ (However you spell it) by decision = Right
Koshcheck by decision = Wrong. Woodly by KO
Macdonald by decision = Wrong. Lawler by decision
Chae by decision = Wrong. Evans by KO
GSP by decision = Right
So you went 5-4
Good job!
Thank you Dougie, as we all know this is an extremely difficult sport to predict due to the abundantly high level of variability involved.

Agreed. Take into account the variables. So many possibilities that it's hard to know what will happen.
I had Dunham for the win via decision for example. I know Cerrone had better kicks but I thought their hands were on an equal level and I thought it would be a game of Dunham's wrestling/takedowns vs Cerrone's BJJ. Usually a lot of wrestlers are able to put that top control to positional use. That fight was a real surprise for me.
Woodly was huge. HUGE! The kind of speed and power he showed tonight put a lot of guys on notice. If he can maintain that over a period of time and avoid getting the blanket then he would be very dangerous. Koshcheck is a huge blanket so the KO was a surprise.
GSP was a nail biter of a fight. I gave Hendricks 2 and 4 and then GSP 3 and a comback in the 5th stealing that round. The first round I could be swayed either way though.
Oh, and Chael should go back to 185. I know he walks big and comes down for 185 but at 205 he seems to be unable to put his game together. He got mauled by Evans and had no answer. He's 2-1 at 205 but he just doesn't look good there.
Do you plan to put more event picks up?
Yes I will be making additional segments.
Mark Bocek - Yes I will be making additional segments.
I'd also like to see you do short youtube clips on cooking simple things like pancakes, muffins, maybe some gingerbread cookies.
You could do this while talking about what your picks are going to be for the fight events.
Any chance on that happening?
Also, Renato Laranja was quoted recently in a Jack Brown interview mentioning his thoughts on you. I quote the interview:
JackBrown: In some of your comments over the years, there is an underlying theme of hostility toward red-headed individuals. What is it about Mark Bocek, and people like him, that has caused such a strong reaction in you?
RenatoJaranja: I didn't had any hostilities toward Mark Bocek. I just said that he was look like Howdy Doody. Which he do.
What are your feelings on this, and do you need help with carrying out your revenge?
lol, I'll bring Renatozinho on the next segment...
Mark Bocek - lol, I'll bring Renatozinho on the next segment...
The two of you doing picks for UFC events would be like you as Ron McLean and him as Don Cherry.
Nothing but awesome!
