majesty95 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Interesting Awful Match: Yeah, its really hard to get a "great" rating for a fight that has hype. I think that could be toned down a bit. More risk than reward from what I can tell... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTial Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 Oh, I wasn't referring to the hype. I got two fantastic and 1 excellent match in that event all with fighters having been hyped. It was more the cut I was referring to. The fight both read and statistically looked like it was another fantastic or at least great match prior to the cut.

Yeah, I could see Adam wanting to mimic how fans arre upset when a fight is stopped. Maybe try not to look at "awful" being that the fans thought the actual fight action was awful but how the fans felt about the fight as a whole after the fight. I can't remember which fight it was, but I remember it being very good but being pissed when it was stopped by the doc. However, I did want to see a rematch so maybe Adam is trying to convey two completely different things with one "rating" category... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
