UFC on FUEL 9 turned out to be a great percentage booster for those of us not too scared to submit picks for an event full of unknown fighters and banana skin match-ups. As a bonus prize this week I am giving away my media pack from Sweden. It has been signed by Buffer, McGregor, Pickett, Pearson, De Fries, Mitrione and Goddard. Read on to find out who finished with the most points and therefore takes homes the prize stash:

CONFIDENCE GAME RESULTS
Nick Williams (68 points) defeats Chris Wallner (64 points) to retain his title as MMA Torch Confidence Picks Champion. Another successful title defense for the champion and automatic entry into the MMA Torch Hall of Fame. Nick dropped points on Alloway, Spang, Peralta and Johnson. Chris dropped points on Alloway, Brimage, Spang, Peralta and Johnson to just miss out on recapturing the title.
Next up for the reigning champion is Joel "Chico Guapo" Wielenga who finished with a very impressive 82 points. Clearly the addition of a thirteenth fight helped bump everyone's scores up. But irrespective of that, Joel only dropped 9 points in total on Alloway and Johnson for an impressive win. As mentioned above he also takes home the bonus prizes. Congrats.
Here are the results of the Confidence Picks pool:
82 - Joel "Chico Guapo" Wielenga
79 - Mark Bunce
79 - Michael Douglas
78 - David Little

Everyone else will be fighting for the No 1 contender slot on the night, and the right to face off against Nick or Joel at UFC 159 (Jones vs. Sonnen) next month.
BETTING GAME RESULTS
Jimbo Slice ($1000) defeats Kevin Seng ($500) to retain his status as MMA Torch Betting Champion. Both champion and challenger only saw one bet come through for them. Both guys had money on underdog Papy Abedi and fortunately for the champion, he had double the stake riding on the outcome.
Jimbo Slice: $1000.00
$500 on Abedi for $1000
Kevin Seng: $500.00
$250 on Abedi for $500
Next up for the champion is Mark Bunce who helped himself to a return of $2439.52. Mark hit two correct bets on underdogs Abedi and Medadi. He also hit his parlay for almost $1000. That made a big difference and he finished just ahead of Joel Wielenga, Anthony Sinnott, Michael Douglas and Adam Lindley who all performed very well.

RECAP
MMA Torch Confidence Picks Championship Match Up (UFC on FOX 7)
Nick Williams (Champion) vs. Joel Wielenga (Challenger)
MMA Torch Betting Picks Championship Match Up (UFC on FOX 7)
Jimbo Slice (Champion) vs. Mark Bunce (Challenger)
Performer of the Night: Champion Nick Williams earned himself a spot in the prestigious Hall of Fame. Mark Bunce earned himself a title shot in the betting game. However only one winner this weekend and that man is Joel Wielenga. A title shot, a bag of goodies and a very profitable performance in the betting game. Well done my man, you got this.
Goat of the Night: Conor McGregor told me to give this award to Tommy Strong. The Irishman is hard as nails so I've duly obliged!
We're back for UFC on FOX 7 in two week time. No game for the TUF Finale next weekend.
