How do I start a ufc pool?

Question

I want to set up a ufc pool for me and my roommates and some guys from work, but i dont know how fight pools work. i know theyre different from football pools and whatnot since its one person per side. i also dont know how the rules would work, would there be a point system and would the pool be for one nights show or for a season or how would it work? im in serious trouble here... any help would be apreciated...

Answer 1

I'd try something with points per right answer and overall points leader at end wins. Use different choices and points for a correct answer. For example....

5 points for picking the winner.

3 points for picking the Round it ends.

3 points for the final outcome, K.O., T.K.O. (ref stopage or cut) or judges decision.

Possible 1 point bonus for how the outcome happens.

K.O.- Kick or punch

T.K.O.- ref stopage from excesive punches or doctor stopage for cut.

Decision- Split or Unanimous.

Or something similar.

With a system like this you could offer a second place prize too.
