Point is.. what happened after the GSP-Hendricks fight? People screamed bloody murder that "there should be a rematch cause GSP shouldn't have won".. what happened after Weidman beat Silva? people screamed bloody murder for a rematch.. it happens in mma all the time that after a big fight and the result is unfavorable for the fans (not the fighter) that they decide a rematch is in the interest of the fans.. and they make more money on ppv's.. in this case the fans are screaming bloody murder and you are refusing.. even ferocity said "it sucks that they can't just fight again like right now" which means as a fan.. she would like to see the rematch(but the rules of the site prevents this from happening). So since your the big wig around here(much like dana white to ufc) you can make decisions based on what people want to see.. and we want to see a rematch. Really what do you have to lose? Your belt. thats it! that was my reasoning for the JDS rematch when I had him as he was such a dominate champion for so long rematch didn't happen also this isn't ufc rules anymore, it's bellator tourney style rules, so no one gets a rematch or title except by earning them via tournament win

If you think so, go about getting change through the appropriate channels, not by undercutting other members' objections to a conditional offer.

Sure, post a suggestion of some kind. The league makes change, not me. The change will not affect D'Alelio, though, as that ship has sailed.

You make changes... and you should be making changes as you are "in charge" of the site. You are supposed to make changes to better the site.. and if you don't make changes you aren't doing your job. So do your job and make the right changes. I don't have all the answers for how it should be changed but I do know that D'Alelio got screwed out of a title match.. and JDS probably got screwed in the past too.. a rule needs to be made... honestly I don't give a shit if D'Alelio gets her rematch.. I think it would have been nice to see since it's bad mojo to see a screw job and not do anything about it(like what your currently doing). The particulars of the rule is your domain.

If you say there is a problem, but have no solution, and if you are the only one who thinks there is a problem, then no, it is not my domain to come up with a solution to a problem that I do not have. I don't think cuts are a problem, since in about 200 events, this is the first "problem" we have had with cut stoppages, and it's only because it happened to the loudest member on the site.

when he said "hey this is a problem" I said "yes it is since it shouldn't happen that way.. it's not realistic.. and cuts simply don't happen in real life in 30 seconds.. small insignificant cuts in first 30 seconds... maybe but not significant fight ending ones."(btw this is not a real conversation) I do feel there is a problem and everyone should check out and respond with their ideas on how to make it work(beneficial comments only). I feel it's in everyones best interest to do so. I have a solution but i don't think people will agree to it. (i'm not talking about rematches at all)

I have a list of several real life fights that ended in the first 30 seconds if you want some of them GAP. It happens, and probably a little more commonly in real life than it has here, to be honest. Here, we have 1 stoppage within 30 seconds in 200 events. I can think of at least 1 in the UFC within the first 50 events just offhand. And outside of that, I can think of another cut stoppage as early as 17 seconds into a fight. I am cool if we are uncool with 30 second cut stoppages, but I am not cool pretending they are unrealistic, because they certainly are.
