    I'm a big fan of Kenshiro and think Bam's one of the most exciting young fighters in the sport so it was a tough call not to include em but the odds on both - as well as on Shakur and Fundora were absurdly wide. The only fight that had both a title, reasonable odds and matched 2 top 10 fighters was MJ vs Tapales and it felt like I couldn't reasonably pick between the remainder of the mismatches. In theory the Kenshiro fight should have probably taken priority because of the 2 titles on the line, but it was only 3 stars per Boxrec and our criteria usually require 4 stars or better.

    Oh and sorry I didn't get back to your PM... I didn't notice it until I logged on to decide what fights to put up on Tuesday and after that replying seemed a bit redunadant since I pretty much posted my thoughts on fight selection in the thread
    Kenshiro's fight against Olascuaga is better than Teraji / Bomba.

    Kenshiro's gonna be in a tough fight Koba.
    I have Olascuaga by KO on that one.
    Princessa is no joke.

            But he included the Anthony Joshua mismatch in the Pick ‘Em last week.

            I think Brian Mendoza has an outside shot at the upset. Oh well.

            ShoulderRoll:

            Abe, DEC, CLEAR
            Akhmadaliev, DEC, CLOSE

              Because last weekend was just two fights. We could afford to have a mismatch there.

                  I'd say half a day early. Just as an example, from Tokyo to New York, it's a 13-hour difference

                    PICK EM CREW: in regard to the Japanese card featuring the Kiko vs Abe fight, perhaps it's better if you put a shout out to all the players in order to get their picks much earlier for that fight. The time difference ranges from 8 to 16 hours, Europe to US...
