Guest Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 So my Org had its first ever Title fight resulting in a draw. And it left me wondering if it would make things more real if both fighters, or at least the challenger earned a bit of hype or popularity from that. Because obviously the a rematch makes sense, but when all the hype and pop stats have stayed the same, if it wasn't a big match the first time round then it makes it very difficult to justify doing a rematch. I just think it would be nice if a Drawn title fight could generate a bit of a buzz for a rematch. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thb Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 +1 that's what usually happens in real life so it makes sense to add this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I think every draw should add some hype I mean they getting their name out there any publicity is better than no publicity at all. I could see if hype does not raise but popularity should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I've said both of these in the past, as have a lot of people: Popularity boost for fighters from a draw, larger hype bonus for both the org and the winning fighter upon completion of the rematch. Makes sense right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense right? Makes sense to me. But maybe a temporary bonus for the total hype of the fight and a winner takes it all approach, that the winner of the rematch get twice the hype+pop bonus?

theking04 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 I can see where you are coming from, but how would Mike put a system in order to tell if the fight was a good one or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 He already has one. Each fight has a fight rating. Each event has an event rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theking04 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 He already has one. Each fight has a fight rating. Each event has an event rating. So would it just be if the fight is 100% then the rematch would get a hype boost, there are still good fights that aren't 100% is what I was saying.

Mentor Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 I think draws should give hype anyway because if you do not give a guy which got a draw hype, basically it means he is losing hype because hype is lost over time if you are not gaining more of it. I do not think it needs to be a title fight. It can be any fight. Draws need to "split" the hype which would have been gained. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also give the underdog (the guy with less hype) a slightly bigger hype gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlyDirk Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Yeh I've said before that any draws should probably result in a small hype gain and a popularity gain, depending on how the fight plays out of course. If it's a decent fight rating then both guys should receive some positive effect from it. At the moment a draw is like the fight never happened.
