So, the guy came in with low energy and he beat you in the opening seconds. OMG YOU GOT ROBBED! UNBELIEVABLE! I CALL BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHENANIGANS! Seriously, can we stop with the crying threads?

Happened to me too. I already messaged mike about it. guess i should have checked here first. weird. kinda sucks because of the energy hit.

Nothing has been ignored. All aspects of the fight game have been accounted for. Either you are intentionally being stubborn and refusing to understand or this concept is simply beyond you. Even in a sport jiu jitsu competition you score no points for just sitting in mount. You must do something. You're only "controlling" the fight if your opponent doesn't want to be where you put him. In this situation, he tried twice to improve position, but was happy to just sit there cuddling you for two minutes. This is the equivalent of someone getting the muay thai plumb and throwing no knees and saying "why didn't they see how dominant my clinch was?" It's only dominance if you DO SOMETHING.

he's still -500... did you loan him 200? haha

You seem to be forgetting that the fight is scored by round. I hope you're not arguing that you won the second. Obviously, you won the third. He won the second. You specifically asked about the first round which seems to be the only questionable round. Let's take a look at the numbers for the first round. He landed: A combo that cut you, a head punch, and another combo. He missed: 11 strike attempts, 2 improve position attempts You landed: A head kick that dropped him and cut him You missed: 4 clinch attempts Your total offensive output was one kick. His total offensive output was two combos and a head punch. Neither of you did a damn thing on the ground. You started in mount, so you score no points for advancing. You stuffed two improve position attempts. You get some points for that. The rest of the time, you did NOTHING. As far as you mentioning the commentary, you're talking flavor text. Flavor text is there so that it doesn't just list stats. It's nice to see, but just because it says "a jab," that doesn't literally mean there is a computer simulation of what a jab can do somewhere and it's reporting back. It just means you got hit in the head and a piece of flavor text that satisfied that was selected at random.

In the first round, you had one piece of offense. That's it. He connected with more and avoided all of your clinch attempts. Then you sat there and did nothing for three minutes. It's not some complex algorithm. Just look at what happened instead of looking at the end of fight stats and going "I got robbed! I better tell everyone on the forum!!"

old meme is old.

Haha that's what my PSP is for now

Damn! I would have accepted just to smash his record and take his money.

actually, robb bumped this topic.

1. private gyms are generally operating at a cost due to the wealth amassed in previous ventures. fighter shuffling is absolutely the biggest waste of time and least effective way to run a private gym. 2. at $600 a week, it takes slightly less than 5 fighters to support an elite coach. that means it is easy to run an elite gym with under 5:1 ratio. 3. get the sand out of your vag and go back to playing the game. it's meant to be fun. stop wasting your time crying and whining.

how does that stop someone from amassing wealth and using it to fund a private gym? do you even know what you're arguing against?

Jack Todo had elite strength in this fight: http://www.mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=63879

Seriously. Ouch. That's a megaburn.

You're a little late to the party, but yes, it is nice.

Wrestling effects takedowns, takedown defense, ground and pound, submissions, defensive grappling, and clinch work.

I am! I use my social security number and birth date for my secondaries!

one quick (i think) fix would be to have fighters ranked by their lowest possible cut-to weight instead of their contracted weight. soblem prolved. this would also allow you to see your rank by weight when you aren't contracted.

I think that, similar to orgs, gyms should have virtual customers. This could be based on the hype of the fighters that attend the gym. I know for a fact that Arizona Combat Sports here in Tempe has way more amateurs and hobbyists because of how successful their pro team is. These extra funds could be used to further improve the gym for the "pros" (our fighters) and would create a new dynamic to the game: negotiating to get better fighters in your gym and/or advertising what great fighters your gym has.

Joke names = not funny

They both sucked. Give someone else a bye.

How much ya need? PM me in-game

Based on the guidelines for creating a coach to teach defensive grappling, we know that it's about 50/50 on BJJ and wrestling. So, to have the maximum skill value (neglecting physicals) for defensive grappling, you would need elite defensive grappling, elite BJJ, and elite wrestling. As for the physicals, it's tough to say. I've seen pops in agility, speed, flexibility, balance, and strength all from BJJ. So, it's likely a combination of everything. That said, my personal hypothesis is that strength plays a large role in submissions. I have a blue belt with elite strength that has not been subbed since hitting the weights, even against a brown belt. I also have another fighter with elite strength that quickly tapped a fighter with very good defensive grappling but low strength.
