BayStyles · February 11, 2014

Couple of quick questions:

1) Those comments after fights like "The crowd is booing, boring round" Or "The crowd are on their feet after that exciting round". Do you add those comments yourself? I never get messages like that

2) How do you do 5 round non title main events? Or do you do it in "quick match"?
