...OH, ONE MORE THING - PLEASE BOOKMARK US & VISIT DAILY!
By Rich Hansen, MMA Torch Columnist:
Oops!
... I did it again.
I played with your heart.
Got lost in the game.
And I didn’t get the UFC 141 results posted until it the day that the 142 lines came out. Whoops.
I’m sure that the real reason I didn’t get the results posted is because I was holding off as long as possible because I didn’t want to announce that not only did I drop the Confidence Picks title to Carll Light, but Matt Pelkey run both pools. He dusted the field by scoring 47 out of a possible 55 confidence points, and he earned $2429.14 in the betting pool. To put that total into perspective, second best was $1580.00.
Matt will challenge Carll Light in the Confidence Picks game, and Matt Pelkey will challenge defending champion Avery Clarke in the Betting game. Avery’s meager $662.62 defeated the $495.00 total of challenger Dionicio Ortiz.
