Please post in this thread the name of the fighter you think will win, Vargas or Mayorga.

If it's a draw, all bets are off. If it's a SD, all bets are off. (Anything but a UD or stoppage, and the bets are off.)

If no one picks either Vargas or Mayorga, bets are off.

If the fighter whose name you have posted in this thread, Vargas or Mayorga, loses, you will not post for 1 week on ESB Forum from the moment the fight result is announced.

As initiator of this tread, I will take off 10 days if bets are on, if Mayorga loses.

Simple really!:good

Only two people here give Vargas a good chance...even though he is favourite with the bookies...

"Oh, Vargas is going to murder Mayorga"..."Mayorga is a bum"...and now?...no one steps up to the plate...Words are cheap around here, it seems.

From now on I will add a rule to these Week-Off bets whereby the bets are on only if at least 7 people pick each boxer...

Right here. I know it all. ALL OF IT. You can put me down for ELEVEN days if Vargas loses, which means my balls are slightly larger than yours. :hat

Mayorga can't fight at this weight. He'll think he's fighting Winky (well, not quite) when he throws those wild hooks into Vargas' bigger arms. Vargas will gain a good 300 lbs in weight after the weigh in and dwarf Mayorga. Neither fighter has been impressive lately, but Mayorga has been less impressive. All that talking at Oscar and Oscar made him quit. Same thing will happen here.

Vargas is a fucking loser too, though. I'm just saying it's obvious he'll win by KO.

You and I have to decide whether to go through with this bet or whether to call it off because of lack of damned interest...over to you!:good

I don't understand the upside to these "time-off" bets... if I win I gain nothing. The avatar bets make sense to me...

The upside is that you survive and the lesser analysts fall off the board for a week. If you get it wrong, you have some time to reflect and cut some of the bullshit or wishful thinking out of your analysis - you sober up analytically, so to speak and come back stronger!
