I think your point is for the most part valid. It should be against the rules to leapfrog an entire day of fights, but on the same note undercutting another challenge by issuing one for a fight that earlier on the bill is kind of lame. Champions deserve a little more priority than that. Kirks is #1 challenge a day right? That should stand here too. I wasn't full aware of rules when issuing that challenge, there's no need to change them. Rules: - First come first serve on challenges issued - No stacking of challenges - Can not challenge a fight more than 10 days away - If champions change their pick after challenge has been set, they forfeit their title and it goes to the challenger - Only 1 challenge per day, although a champion can have unlimited defenses per day - Anyone who loses a title fight, must wait until 3 challenges occur before they can challenge again. If no one has challenged the champion, ANYONE (even those who have lost/participated in the past 3 title fights) can challenge the day of the fight they are challenging (12AM est) - The champion should try to place their picks as soon as they can, to give the field enough time to challenge their picks. A slight modification to the - Can not challenge a fight more than 10 days away is probably in due... But the earlier challenge suggestion is kind of overdoing it i'd say.
I disagree, because a Champion is not allowed to issue challenges in Kirk's. Only based on that, those rules I mentioned should balance it out.
Also, the ability of a champion challenging others was introduced without addressing it. I like it, but we should create a clear guideline for "people's championships" going forward in this league.
Never really payed attention to the Kirks peoples championship/tournaments but never saw anything about champions not being able to challenge, how does that make sense? It's not even mentioned in the rules of the thread.
Evans-Smith TKO, Cummings SUB, Smith KO, Collier KO, Sterling UD, Smolka SUB, Magomedov UD, Duquesnoy KO, Nelson KO, Stevens KO, Waterson SUB Souza SUB
Johnson UD, Waterson SD, Stevens TKO, Whitaker UD, Smolka SUB, Collier SUB, Smith UD, Coy TKO, Magomedov TKO, Duquesnoy SUB, Nelson TKO, Sterling UD
I think if a challenge is made you absolutely should not be able to usurp it by going for an earlier fight. With that in mind all you need is a reasonable rule to ensure the selected fight is not too late. For instance if we're talking about the latest UFC event and i picked Johnson over Cormier, someone coming along and going for Weidman over Moose would be a complete dick move.
More than one challenge a day should be allowed. That way people don't get frozen out. I was denied a challenge earlier for the same reason.
Well technically you weren't denied a challenge. Stephens/Moicano is earlier on the card and there's no stacking challenges. Technically I could still offer a challenge to you if I come through in that defense.
