Mike Louis Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 This thread is for fights in your game in which a fighter was robbed by the judges. To get the ball rolling, here's a fight from my save-game using the NHB 1998 database: - Emi Nagano vs. Emiri Fueki - From player-controlled event 'WCL 20: B Clayton vs. Campbell' (from the save game 'NHB1998') - Created 14 April 2012 >Next up is a match in which Emi Nagano squares off with Emiri Fueki in the WCL Women's Heavyweight division. >We are underway! >Fueki catches Nagano with a crisp left jab. >Nagano needs to stop leaving her hands so low, it's a dangerous habit. >They exchange strikes, but neither fighter inflicts any real damage. >Fueki throws a left jab but Nagano uses good head movement to make sure it slips by. >Using good head movement, Fueki slips past a punch and hits a clean left jab. >Slipping past a left jab, Nagano hits a solid left jab. >A flurry of rights and lefts all miss, allowing Fueki to hit a stinging jab. >An exchange of strikes doesn't lead to any real damage. >We go past the halfway point of this round. >Nagano checks a low kick. >Seeing a low kick coming, Nagano strikes first with a solid punch. >Fueki uses head movement to dodge a punch, then strikes back with a crisp left jab. >A left jab misses the mark and allows Fueki to counter with a hard inside leg kick. >Nagano, standing in the pocket, has to check a leg kick. >We move into the final sixty seconds of this round. >Nagano looks like she might be trying to get in close and wrestle with Fueki. >She pulls Fueki into a grapple. >Nagano is looking to muscle Fueki back against the cage. >Nagano manages it, and controls Fueki up against the cage. >Nagano pins Fueki up against the cage and uses dirty boxing to inflict some damage. >Showing how good she can be at controlling opponents, Nagano keeps Fueki stuck against the cage for the remainder of the round. >Round one is brought to an end as time runs out. >I think Fueki took that round, 10-9 on my score card. >Round two begins! >A showdown where they both exchange strikes only results in a stalemate. >In close proximity from the strikes they threw, they fall into a messy clinch. >Nagano uses underhooks to gain solid control, and is looking for a takedown. >Fueki cannot stop being lifted up and blasted with a Greco-Roman slam, she can only pull guard! >Nagano throws a few weak-looking punches as she decides on her next move. >Nagano begins trying to pass the guard. >Advancing her position, she passes to half guard. >Nagano begins trying to get her leg free of half guard and get a better position. >Fueki doesn't let Nagano get her leg free, and so half guard remains in place. >Fueki tries a sweep from the bottom of half guard, but doesn't budge Nagano. >We move into the second half of this round. >Nagano attempts to pass half guard. >Fueki keeps her half guard secure. >Nagano blocks an attempted sweep. >We have one minute of the round remaining. >Nagano starts trying to work to get out of half guard and into a better position. >Fueki keeps her half guard secure. >Time expires and we come to the end of round two. >That round goes to Nagano, 10-9 on my card. >And here we go, round three! >A jab doesn't find its intended target, allowing Fueki to fire back with a crisp left hand punch. >Fueki tries for a left jab but Nagano moves out of range. >There's a short stalemate as both fighters advance and throw strikes, but neither hits. >Nagano slips out of the way of a body kick. >Fueki throws out a quick left jab. >Nagano doesn't let Fueki settle, stepping in closer to impose herself. >Nagano looks like she wants to stand in the pocket and strike with Fueki. >Nagano can't close the distance, Fueki keeps her away with strikes. >We are now at the halfway point of the round. >Both fighters come toe-to-toe and strike, but none of the strikes result in significant damage being done. >Standing in the pocket, Fueki throws an inside leg kick but Nagano shows good footwork to avoid it. >Fueki tries for a left jab but Nagano uses head movement to avoid it. >A showdown where they both exchange strikes only results in a stalemate. >Fueki throws a leg kick but Nagano checks it easily. >The end of the round is coming quick, there's under a minute left. >Fueki slips past a straight punch and hits a vicious leg kick. >Emi Nagano won't want to take too many unchecked strikes to the legs like that. >A leg kick gets checked by Nagano. >Standing in the pocket, Fueki throws an inside leg kick but Nagano shows good footwork to avoid it. >Time runs out and that's the end of the fight. >I think Fueki took that round, 10-9 on my score card. >The judges have given their scores, which are about to be announced. >All three judges have scored it 29-28. >Making Emi Nagano the winner by unanimous decision! >Fueki has been robbed blind by the judges there in my opinion! >Official Result: Emi Nagano defeats Emiri Fueki (Unanimous Decision in 5:00 of round 3).

blockrocker Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I don't have an example to put up, but I have noticed an odd thing with "awful decisions" in my games. It seems that the rounds are scored by the announcers for the correct winners but they still end up feeling the other fighter was burned........even though they called the individual rounds the same as the judges. Example: round 1-fighter A, round 2-fighter A, round 3-fighter B. The winner by decision is fighter A. What an awful decision, fighter B was clearly robbed in my opinion! Any one else notice this??

HansLanda11 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Yes, I have seen this a few times before. I'm not really sure if it was intended to be that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Louis Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 Here's my second example: Nina Belle vs. Tatjana Vinick from WCL 25: M Clayton vs. Riley III Next up is a match in which Nina 'Liberty' Belle will battle Tatjana Vinick in the WCL Women's Lightweight division. Round 1 >There's the opening bell! >Vinick feints left and tries to get Belle to commit to a strike, but gets no joy. >Vinick steps back to avoid a one-two combination. >Belle counters a left jab by hitting a clean jab. >Both fighters advance and strike, but neither hits anything. >Belle counters a left jab with a big right kick to the outside of the thigh. >An exchange of strikes goes nowhere. >In close proximity from the strikes they threw, they fall into a messy clinch. >Vinick uses underhooks to gain solid control, and is looking for a takedown. >She lifts her opponent and drives her down with a Greco-Roman slam! Belle pulls guard. >Belle is controlled against the ground, unable to shift Vinick off of her. >We've now passed the halfway mark in this round. >Vinick lies on top of Belle, basically smothering her. >Vinick attempts to pass guard. >She can't get free of the guard. >Vinick deflects a couple of punches that Belle threw from below. >We move into the final sixty seconds of this round. >The clock runs down as Belle is being smothered against the ground by Vinick. >Time slips away as Vinick successfully keeps Belle stuck against the ground. >Round one is brought to an end as time runs out. >The fans are booing loudly after a dire round that featured little in the way of action. >I have to give that round to Vinick, but only a 10-9. Round 2 >We are back underway! >Between rounds, her corner told Belle to take it to Vinick in this round. >Belle moves in quickly after a wayward punch and hits a barrage of big right hands, forcing Vinick back! >Belle throws a flurry of rights and lefts, but Vinick covers up well. >Belle throws a barrage of big punches but Vinick covers up safely. >Belle throws a flurry of punches but Vinick covers up and takes them easily. >Belle throws a barrage of big punches but Vinick covers up well. >Belle dodges a jab, and fires back with a sharp kick to the shin. >There's only so many of those strikes to the legs that can be taken before they become an issue. >Belle dodges a jab, and fires back with a left jab to the cheek. >Vinick slips past a nice combination and hits a clean left jab. >We've now passed the halfway mark in this round. >Slipping past a one-two combination, Vinick counters with a nice jab. >Belle lets a jab sail wide and counter-strikes with a straight left. >Using head movement to slip past a left jab, Belle hits a left hook to the body. >Belle throws a left jab but Vinick uses good head movement to make sure it slips by. >A left jab misses, giving Belle the chance to hit back with a kick to the side of the ribs. >We're into the final minute of the round. >Showing good head movement, Vinick slips past a tight combination and counter-strikes with a crisp left jab. >Vinick uses head movement to avoid a combination of short sharp punches, then fires back with a left jab to the cheek. >Vinick uses head movement to avoid a combination of short sharp punches, then fires back with a jab. >The time runs out on round two. >I have to give that round to Belle, but only a 10-9. Round 3 >There's the bell for the start of the round! >It sounded like her corner told Belle to stand with Vinick, but to be careful not to get caught. >Vinick slips out of the way of a combination of short sharp punches. >Belle steps in, feints a kick, then darts back out. >A jab doesn't find its intended target, allowing Belle to fire back with a clean jab. >Belle narrowly misses Vinick with a right uppercut. >Vinick presses in closer to attack. >A couple of quick punches are used to set up a takedown attempt from Vinick. >Belle tries to avoid Vinick. >Belle avoids the takedown attempt. >We go past the halfway point of this round. >Vinick counters a wayward low kick by catching it and shooting in for a takedown, and gets it! Belle has to pull guard. >Vinick tries to pass the guard. >Vinick struggles but cannot find a way past and remains stuck in guard. >Belle tries to pull Vinick in close and pepper her with short strikes, but can't. >Vinick smothers Belle with her body by pushing forward and down. >We move into the final sixty seconds of this round. >Vinick attempts to pass guard and gain a better position. >She can't quite manage to get past guard on this attempt. >Vinick leans back to avoid a couple of wild swings from Belle. >The time expires on round three, and that is the end of the fight. >I think Vinick took that round, 10-9 on my score card. >The official scores are being reported now. >Judge #1 gives a score of 29-28 in favour of Belle. >Judge #2 has scored it 29-28 Vinick. >Judge #3: 29-28 Belle. >Nina 'Liberty' Belle wins by split decision! >That's a truly awful decision in my book, Vinick was clearly the winner! >Official Result: Nina 'Liberty' Belle defeats Tatjana Vinick (Split Decision in 5:00 of round 3). The match was rated as being Poor. I held the PPV in Los Angeles, luckily for me the Belle-Vinick fight was only a prelim. I would hate to be at the arena if that was the main event.

Blackman Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I've also seen some cases where I clearly thought the fighter in question was robbed, yet it didn't give a 'furious at decision' note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
