Why is Mamedov -1600. That just seems insane. -500 or something, fine. But -1600?

Right guy moved to the next round. O'Connell did more. 2 round fights suck.

3 rounds of 4 minutes each might be a better way to do it.

Would have been more fun to have had Bas & Randy during the prelims. It was cool at times to have the 4 person Facebook crew, but ultimately doesn't work as well as an in-person commentary team.

And this is why 2 round fights are no good.  10-9 Watley, not as dominant for Watley as Wade was in the first, but still goes to Watley.

So now we just randomly let Wade move on in the tourney? Why does the first round matter more than the last round?

I don’t mind the 2rounds in the Pride judging systems but it just doesn’t translate in a 10 pt must system. 

I like the Three 3-4 minute idea much better.
