Galaxy, can you show me what I had?
Also, I think you should amend the scoring to make the dollars a little more even. I say this because a player can win the whole season based on one win, where someone else could win tons of fights and be nowhere close. Just an idea. I'm definately not talking about myself, I had tons of losses.
Hey killer
You told me you wanted to reset which meant auctioning your fighters & recieving the $25,000 reset amount in addition. You had Arreola, Nanthachai & Mares.
The reason the amounts are like that is because you get bigger money for beating better competition. Stables whose fighters fight a lot of journey men might have a nice record but its not really relevant to the level they have been fighting.
You're right, I did reset, my mistake and my apologies, my memory is horrible. I understand the argument for fighting ranked fighters, but how many times does that happen a year when two ring ranked fighters fight each other? Maybe once a month. I'm not saying the values should be the same, but when one fight is worth $28,000 for a win and another is $100, there's no way for everyone to have a chance of winning.
I see where your coming from but it also goes the other way. You can lose that amount just as easy. JT Rock sat atop most of last year but the loss for Pavlik to Hopkins toppled him!!!
I think the secret is to form a stable with a few guys who will fight top competiton, a few who are on the border line & some that fight regularly & have the potential to break through. Plus keep & eye on unranked fighters who will be meeting ranked opponents & are live dogs e.g. Bradley, Santos, Gonzalez or V. Klitschko.
In the end mate I feel its not about winning but keeping your stable in good form!
