Palpites SUPER FIGHTS scoring system
The guesses will be made by the team at SUPER FIGHTS. At the end of the 2025 season, whoever gets the most points will be the team's 'best bettor'. The scoring system will be simple. Whoever predicts the winner gets one point. Whoever predicts the outcome will get three points, and if the bettor 'guesses' the positive result exactly (e.g.: knockout in R1, submission in R3, decision by points), the bettor will be awarded five points.
