    Thanks to everyone who contributed to the prior under 200lb tournament(special thanks to GreatA). Due to it being popular, I have decided to run an under 185lb tournament. It will consist of 32 contestants chosen by me. Single Elimination Bracket. It will be seeded. I will make a poll of each matchup in the first round, you will discuss, and vote. You will choose the winner. Winner advances to the next round. Loser is done. Seeds will be formulated like this 1 vs 32 2 vs 31 3 vs 30, etc.....
