1-2 Punch Season 1 Preseason Mag

Score Format

In order to avoid possible conflicts as to whom deserves a champ or contender match, I will be applying RPK's patented score algorithm. Don't worry, it's not as fancy as it sounds (or patented). Essentially, there are five key parts.
Winning a battle will be worth +2 points.
Winning through no show will be worth +1 point.
Losing a battle will be worth -1 point.
Losing a battle through no-show will be worth -2 points.
A person who earns a champ/contender match must participate in the league two weeks before becoming eligible again.

This discourages no-showing and also makes winning through no-shows less profitable. It will allow battlers who win through battles to get match priority.

Predictions

Witty vs. Immaculate
I don't know exactly how this'll turn out, but I think Witty will take it. However, immaculate may surprise me and pull the upset.
Witty 80-20

Allen Knight vs. Bags
BOTW imo. These two know how to drop and will make an incredible battle. I think it will be pretty even.
50-50

Ox vs. 2 Beautiful
I have seen both battle, and I believe Ox has a better handle on throwing punches. Beautiful may have elevated and may surprise me, however.
Ox 70-30

Bleak vs. Cashius
Another decent battle. Both these guys know how to drop and should make this a good one. I see Cash edging it though.
Cashius 60-40

Def_fuckin_5 vs. Lotto Smirk
This one may be a closer battle. Def is coming off a hiatus, so I believe he should be able to edge it barely.
Def 60-40

Malachi vs. God of War
I see GoW taking this solidly. However, Malachi could come up with something crazy and surprise me, or GoW could no show.
GoW 90-10

Dystopian vs. Mike Wrecka
This is another that could be closer because these guys tend to be off and on. I see Dys edging it because of experience.
Dystopian 65-35

Chyeahhh!!! vs. Innovator
I really have no clue how this will end up. I have seen neither of these guys battle before. Could go either way.
50-50

Meth vs. Knucklehead
I see Knucklehead pulling this one quite easily. He has been on a roll recently and has been dropping nicely. Meth may pull the upset though.
Knucklehead 85-15

King Keith vs. jesuits
Another matchup that should be interesting simply from unfamiliarity. I think Keith will edge it though I've seen neither battle.
Keith 55-45

Genocide vs. Hollywood
Genocide is a topical cat mostly. I have seen Holly drop dope punches, so he will probably get it.
Holly 90-10

Barcotic vs. Twenty one
Barcotic is coming off a hiatus, so he may be rusty. I think this could be close simply from that, but I see Bar getting it.
Barcotic 75-25

Destroyer vs. NAQ
I have never seen NAQ battle, and I know Destroyer was a vet, so I will take the obvious choice of destroyer.
Destroyer 80-20

Outroduction

Well, that's about it for this week, so I will try to be brief. Lets make this season dope and try not to no show. I will just end up with some Props and WTFs.

Props to all you guys for signing up.

WTF to Allen, Innovator and Meth for being so eager to post before I finished the mag.
