Q: How will you choose the fights for which we make our picks? A: We plan to include any fights that we think are significant or will generate interest here. Typically, they will be fights on the major, televised MMA cards, including UFC, Affliction, Dream, Elite and WEC events. We're going to focus on widely televised events, becasue we would like everyone to be able to make their picks as part of the event and then sit back and see how well they do! Sometimes there may be fighters included with whom you are not too familiar, but that shouldn't stop you from entering predictions. Do your research on the fighters (we make that easy by including links to the fighter's records -- typically obtained from sherdog), make your picks and prove that you are worthy of the MMAPL Championship.
Q: What will I win? Can I win money? A: A grand prize will be awarded to the winner, and runner up prizes for both second and third places will also be awarded. While we will strive to determine and announce the prizes at the beginning of each season, we reserve the right to change the prizes to be awarded at any time.
Q: What happens if I pick a fighter to win by KO, and he ends up winning by decision. Do I still get points? A: If you pick an outcome (e.g., KO) and your fighter wins, but the outcome is not what you predicted (e.g., decision instead of KO), you still get some points for the win, but not nearly what you would have scored if you had specifically predicted the way in which the fighter would win.
A: What if I want to change my picks? Q: You can change your pick as many times as you want, before the fight is closed. Each fight will have a close date and time, which is typically (but not always) midnight the day before the fight is scheduled.
