About Copemaxxing
Predicting fights is cope. Ranking the people who do it is copemaxxing. Us included.
Every fight week, MMA YouTubers put their picks on camera. We write them down, wait for the fights, and keep score. No hot takes survive contact with the scoreboard.
How scoring works
- Their last pick before the first fight starts is the one that counts.
- Rankings use the main card only: 1 point per correct winner.
- Draws, no contests, cancelled fights and changed opponents never count, for or against.
- Tied? More upsets called wins. Still tied? More profit in the $100 Degen Sim.
- Prelims show up on each YouTuber's profile (Full card) but never move the rankings.
- Coin Flip Carl and Fav Picker are our robots. They're there so you can tell skill from luck. Hidden by default because you came for the humans.
Where the data comes from
- Picks: the YouTubers' own public prediction videos. Every pick links to the moment it was said.
- Results: public fight results.
- Odds: consensus closing lines across regulated US sportsbooks. We don't name or link any book.
- Fighter photos belong to their owners. Want one changed or taken down? Email us and it's gone.
The fine print
Not betting advice
- The $100 Degen Sim is pretend money, for laughs. We don't take bets, sell picks or point you at a sportsbook. If you gamble, be 21+ (or your local legal age) and don't bet what you can't lose.
- Copemaxxing is an independent fan project. It's not affiliated with or endorsed by the UFC, ESPN, YouTube, or any YouTuber we track.
- We quote picks as they were said. If we got one wrong, tell us and we'll fix it with a note.
- YouTubers: if you'd rather not be tracked, email us and you're out, no hard feelings.
