Official UFC Camp League 2018

[MasterLeader]

There were also a lot of guys that were about to move spots last year, or guys that could feasibly become champ. Last year had 3 100k picks, 11 50k picks, 8 25k picks, 3 15k picks and 3 10k picks

This year's first 28: 1 100k pick, 7 50k picks, 6 25k picks, 3 15k picks and 6 10k picks.

We seem to be trending down to less riskier, bigger teams

Gotta say Im not too happy about there being little incentive to pick top 10 fighters this year, think we should try and incentivise picking more champs/ higher ranked guys next season but no idea how.

 

I reckon 140 fighters will be selected in this draft.

 

Really exciting picking though this season.

 

 

 

Rei - youre up!

It's the nature of the current scoring. I already said last year picking champs has nearly no upside, and I really felt the bite of picking 50k'ers last year, when Cerrone, Johnson and Jacare all had bad years

[The1rstSaint]

An idea would be to up there win bonus and performance Award Bonus. Not sure if it is already greater or not though

Might be worth capping rounds rather than minimum spend and then people will want to spend more per round given they may only get 6 fighters each in the draft for example.

 

After the draft you can obviously pick a fighter a week but imagine spending $60,000 over 6 rounds and having $140,000 yet to spend after the draft. Not many managers would want to do that.

Yeah champs dont fight often enough in general and theres no camp value growth potential. Wed have to discuss properly at the end of 2018, whoever is running it should refer to this page.

 

Although Whittaker and Holloway are surely pretty lucrative at this stage. Who knows when MM will next fight but he fights often enough.

Rei - youre up!

I don't if everybody else feels this way but the reason I'm not picking higher ranked guys is because of how the UFC has been running things lately.

It seems like almost every champion is sitting on his ass looking for a super fight and a lot of the top 5 guys are just kinda stuck in limbo fighting each other, winning some and losing some. I just think it's a good idea right now to pick lower ranked guys who have a lot of upside instead of worring about what the UFC is doing with thier top guys.

Well, there is already a mininum of 150k in place, so that's not possible. But tiered picks might be an interesting experiment

[Timqwe]

Bet Rei's asleep, he's still in Tokyo

[MasterLeader]

Well, there is already a mininum of 150k in place, so that's not possible. But tiered picks might be an interesting experiment

Hence me saying [rather than minimum spend].

 

Again its difficult because you dont want to kill the game.

 

Yeah might be a bit of a wait for Rei, hopefully he wakes up soon

Yeah, that is part of it too. Last year you had Romero, Jacare, Weidman and Rockhold who could all feasibly get a titleshot at that point. After this year, a lot of the top 5 guys spent time fighting eachother, so there are few challengers left. The only really healthy division in that regard right now is Bantamweight, where you still have Cruz, Cody and Rivera

...apart from my man Kelvin

 

Also Im really jealous of Rei being in Japan - best country Ive ever visited (no offence to the Americans here)

[The1rstSaint]

Well there is the Conor McNugget factor too. Which I think Woodley is following in his shoes, although he has a injury right now as well.

[The1rstSaint]

Or GSP giving up the title, what a puss move that was.

 

So it's not all on the UFC it's them and there relations with there champions. Conor is killing the sport and hope more don't follow his path.

[MasterLeader]

Im going to sleep.

 

Will leave my next picks with Jacman again. Im sure hell pop online in next two hours.

 

Fallen Angel is online now - you can have my next pick in case they dont get picked next two and Jacman

is slow.

 

Check your emails Fallen Angel

[Rei]

I'll take Chan Sung Jung

 

Edit: reason beung is my entire list has been taken other than the lowest tiered guys that I reckon no one will take lol

[MasterLeader]

I'll take Chan Sung Jung

Thanks - Timqwe is online so Im gonna wait
