I was kinda thinking Joey-Wag since its such a slow month but do you think anyone wouldn't take Grispi/Benavidez if we added them?

Just making suggestion like we always do, I think they are worthy fights, no big deal either way.

If we start adding those fights then it we might as well just call it pick em' 2 and not GOR.

Benavidez vs. Fabiano is feasible but everyone would pick Benavidez anyway and Grispi vs. Koch no way as neither are top 20.

I have always been verbal with too many fights on GOR... this started off as just main events and has trickled down to picking the 5th fight on a card as long as it is a good fight.. I have said the same thing that freak has said.. "that fight is what pick'ems is for"..

I love Condit... but Condit vs Hardy shouldnt have been a GOR pick ..

however i am biased though.. everyone knows where my loyalties lie on these two sections... I think the rankings and structure of the two are different now that picking a lot of the same fights be alright.

Agreed. I also don't like picking for the whole month ahead of time. I like when the fights are that week, and I can go back and look at the participants' fights and make a decision then. I also generally like to wait until the weigh-ins to make my picks. GOR has just become a watered down pick'em instead of being just the huge fights.

I'm trying to make it the huge fights but people want to keep adding meaningless fights.

Meaningless fights?

Benavidez vs. Wagney is 2 top 10 guys going at it, Wagney could get a Title shot with a win

Grispi is top 10 and top 5 to some, he gets a Title shot with a win.

All we do is pick the biggest toughest fights to pick for GOR, sometimes a big fight is an easy pick, doesn't mean it isn't a big fight.
