Just curious, what do you think is flawed on the ground? A lot of people say that and I'd like to hear your opinion. I never really have problems with it BUT there are sometimes when I'm like wtf? So maybe there are flaws I haven't seen.
Well, I'm talking about in relation to real life. For example, you had me mounted and had Thales sitting there doing nothing but blocking transitions. In real life, for a guy to sit in full mount doing nothing but looking straight into Anderson Silva's eyes and blocking transitions (which are ridiculous at times, especially when, lets say you are mid-punch, off balance and I try to throw you off me, all you have to is hold right on the stick and you block it the transition in mid-punch) is crazy.

Overall, the game captures the technical aspects of the sport, but the defense aspect of the game isn't well done.

Gotcha. Yea mount is very hard to get out of if the person on top has fast fingers to reverse transitions mid punch. That's the key to staying on top. Not necessarily blocking cause you can't do that and punch. If you flick you can catch them if timed right.

Alright. Tourny p4p is different than the season right? So I can actually win prizes on this one with a clean slate or will it be harder since the losses I inherited?

I'll get right on contacting my opponents: Forest and McFedries.

Well after the 1st round match-ups of the tournament are finished, the rest of the matches are set up via the p4p rankings from the "season/league." So if you are ranked at the lower end of the rankings from the p4p from the league/grouping play, you'll always be facing off against a top seed player.

Example: you beat Drew McFedries and advance to the 2nd round. Out of the 8 people in the MW division from the league play that went to the tournament, you are ranked 8th in the division -- so you'll advance to face the highest seed that won his first round match-up.

Now the tournament p4p rankings are set aside and are different than the league p4p. They will be used, in the majority, for the rankings for who wins which prizes.

ahh, well since you already have had one fighter make it into the tournament, I want to give other people a chance to represent another fighter. If there are still openings by the end of next weekend, I'll let you have another shot back in the league. Trying to fill the last few fighters with people who already have been eliminated.

all right, fought Sokoudjou 86 and his Antoni Hardonk. I was careless since I knew I had the advantage with wrestling and kept screwing around, but had fun matches.

Cheick Kongo defeats Antoni Hardonk via TKO at 1:28 in the 2nd Round
Antoni Hardonk defeats Cheick Kongo via KO at 2:31 in the 2nd Round
Antoni Hardonk defeats Cheick Kongo via Sub (Guillotine Choke) at 1:53 in 1st Round

The last match I was just screwing around since he had a fighter who isn't that great with wrestling so I kept powerslamming him. Well, he caught me with a choke. The 2nd match I had it in the bag, but then he got the full mount since I was careless and trying to do a quick reversal. Fun matches 5/5
