We Have a Winner!
One of the things we wanted to do when we opened the site up for beta testing was to get some free publicity give some friends of ours out in the community the chance to prove how well they could predict MMA fights. We invited various prominent names in the constellation of online MMA personalities and offered them a pretty good deal: in exchange for coming in to MMAPredictions, kicking the tires a little by predicting the outcomes of the IFL Show in Vegas and UFC 72: Victory in Belfast, we’d reward the best predictor across the two events. Here’s who we took us up on the offer, in no particular order…
- Zach Arnold, of FightOpinion.com
- The MMA Girls, Joanne and Lauren
- Jude Samuel, of The European Fight Network
- Gumby, from OnTheMat.com
- Sam Kim, owner of the NHBGear
- Darth Molen, of Kamikazee
The results are in! Here’s how our illustrious invitees fared across the two events:
-
bjjeu: 87.5%
DarthMolen: 78.8%- ZachArnold: 70.0%
- NHBGEAR-Sam: 66.2%
MMA Girls: 62.5%- Gumby: 55.0%
Congratulations to Jude & The European Fight Network! In addition to receiving a bit of free advertising for The European Fight Network here on our site, MMAPredictions is going to donate $250 to a charity of The European Fight Network’s choosing in their name. Way to go, Jude, and let us know your charity of choice!
Keep an eye on the site as more contests are in the works!
