Former Number 1 Overall Vs Current Number 1 Finisher Peressanggenna Nubuna (410128) returns this Friday at Pitbull 48 (990943) looking to continue his undefeated ways and get his 6th submission victory against familiar name on the undefeated scene 14-1 "Relentless" Brady Swayde (408430) in a truly epic clash. At 17 and 20 years old respectively these two youngsters are phenoms on the ground both already possessing black belts and remarkable and superb wrestling respectively. It's almost completely unheard of to have two grapplers have such great records going against one another. This is a very competitive match, Brady has the experience edge both in terms of matches competed in and also going the distance while also being the older (albeit still only 20!) but despite all that I have to slightly lean towards Nubuna to get the victory again and by a submission what Nubuna does have as advantages is learning speed and size being over 100lbs the heavier competitor. Very excited for this one and again it goes down this Friday on the 6th of the 6th, poetic in a sense.

Just from having a look at some of Strikes higher events, I think there's a few factors involved in why it didn't sustain. PPV sales obviously being a big financial factor, but I think a contributing factor is that starting hype is difficult to build in conjunction with an org looking to push those PPV levels. You'd ideally have an org running the big PPV shows with the best KT fighters, and other orgs running events for the new fighters to start building hype in KT also. A lot of the events have absolutely no hype in Fights 6-10 and then fights 3-5 are usually on the low low side too. Some of them seem to rely on MMA fighters moving over and bringing a good starting Popularity. I could absolutely be chatting shite as my org experience is about 7 years worth but it's all about 6+ years ago Boosting PPV would at least make the top end more sustainable when someone gets there. Without knowing how difficult it would be, would adding KT QFC's be something that is doable for fighters to get off the ground running and potentially help a new org? - To add onto what others have said about the state of KT, I'd be somewhat interested in either running or helping with a KT org at some point in the near future, whether it's an existing one or creating a new one to give more places to fighters to grow.

I personally am fine with how it is currently, but I wouldn't be annoyed if the lower energy levels recovered quicker

This would be really good for orgs going forward. I know I'm going to be confused as hell at suddenly having to set sliders for a Tuesday evening fight but I think people will just get used to it overtime. Also means fights might be more spread out which will be good for people who log in regularly.
