Nothing against your boy Oliver, you dont understand our point!! The format rewards you if you have an easier draw or if you try to brawl your way to a quick win, fine for some quick KO's, but this is not a guage of skill vs skill! A fighter is disadvantaged if he tries to use skill to outpoint someone or break them down over rounds! When later rounds of the event come, he's out of gas! 98 finals, good example you brought up! Andy fought well on the evening and had hard, long fights where he out-SKILLED and out fought his opponents, but the reward he gets is he's out of steam and energy for the final and gets splattered quickly!! This is what he gets for long and deserved wins earlier! What about that tournament were Crocop was nearly crippled, could hardly walk to the ring for his last match and was flattened before you could blink?!?Understand the point?? Tournaments are NOT a true or fair guage of all abilities or one on one competition!! NOTHING against Pettas, congratulations on his win! Good for him! But NOTHING beats 10 or 12 round fights, if knees must be included then a full 5 rounds! Why do you think so many fighters dont like the format for the year now?? It sux!! But some have no choice! Some have left, some dont want to be in it. And believe me most don't like it! All of this is not in the spirit of kickboxing or muay thai or whatever you want to call it!! And Felix the whole organisation is getting weirder ain't it?? What with Crocop having what was basically a fake pro wrestling match on the card??
