Acidburned Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 What are the general guidelines to creating a good fight? negotiations? Negotiations are hit and miss to start with but once you get used to them it is easy. I am pretty sure the size of the promotion depends on the length and matches the fighter will accept. As UFC I normally offer 6 fight deals for a little more than the fighter is requesting. As I was building up from 1993 to start with fighters would only accept 2 fight deals, as the company developed it got more and more. I don't think there are many tips to putting on a good fight. I have had two exciting strikers have bad fights. The main thing is to just make sure you have a main event the fans want to see that way you should make some money. I just hand title matches to people who are on winning streaks who I think could give the champ a good run for his money. Like real MMA there is no definite way to book an exciting fight.
InsatiableInsanity Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Like AB said, there's no way of DEFINITELY putting on a good fight, but from my experience two well-matched strikers are usually fun to put together, while the worst combination is probably a wrestler and a BJJ fighter who neutralize each other's weapons. But even they can turn out to be pretty sweet on occassion! Generally I try to fill my card with a few REALLY close, well matched fights alongside fights I expect to have a finish one way or the other. In that sense, a striker vs a ground fighter or whatever. Remember: styles make matches!
