None of the fights I want to vote for (ML Division) are listed!

If the fight didn't happen, then how can it be even nominated for "Worst Fight of the Year"?

Because it existed on paper, and so our virtual people paid PPV money to see it. Then it was cancelled. They got screwed. It counts.

It's the same as a ML fight. Yes, the fighters were there, but nothing actually happened.

Sorry, I know I'm playing Devil's Advocate here, but it just seems like a cheap way to get a nomination when there were plenty of worse fights that ACTUALLY happened; including ML fights, as HammerFists alluded to. Just saying. |

Because they never walked to the cage, the ref didn't say "Are you ready? Are you ready? Let\s Get it on!"
They never "got it on". But the fight was never cancelled. I could have No Contest'ed it, but decided i didn;t want to waste space adding another 1 column to their stats.
And ML is not ManMMA. It's a sub-league. We have separate awards. Otherwise, Justin Traviss would be nominated for Knockout of the Year, and we said since the very beginning we were never competing with (or against) ManMMA real fighters. Including in awards voting.

Forfeiture is as if the contest happened but Griffin won. That fight should never have even been nominated, let alone won it... lol Is there an award for worst nominee as well? Might as well tack another dumb award on too :  This is just abyssmal...  |

Remember when I contacted you (and NO ONE ELSE ON THIS SITE) on MSN and gave you the chance to send me any fights you thought stood out and you said "nah, I would only pick my own stuff"? I do. If you had a problem with nomination, you should have sent me some. These are supposed to be fun and your whining about the STUPIDEST award (that is basically a joke) is kinda sad.

I officially retract my vote and now vote for "Worst Fight of the Year" as "Kruze vs. Award Nominations".

It doesn't count because Kruze arguing against selected text is both one-sided and stupid. It would be like a person trying to talk to Kruze.

Much like the decision to even nominate that Slice/Griffin (non) fight in the first place... I agree with the first part of your statement. ...2nd part, not so much. |
