I am actually not that big of a fan of open scoring, at least for the fans perspective. I think corners should be allowed to see it

It’s a collective thing again, you get a million all together for all the bouts which is still great

That makes much more sense, especially financially for Oktagon as an organization.

Pfl does the same thing except it’s 1 million for 2 playoff bouts

Is Oktagon financially struggling at all? They basically monopolized german MMA for the most part.

No, they are doing well for themselves, but obviously it's much better to just pay 1 million for 4 bouts then just a 1 million cheque. They are also running more weight classes this year so it's much easier to afford all that. 250K Euros per bout is still great especially for the European regionals

LFA 174 was a decent card as well last eve. I still have to watch a few fights but dropping these for note...



Cant find a cap but there was also

Zeb Vincent def H. Rogers-Williams DISQUALIFICATON, KNEE TO GROIN

Otherwise a fair shake of decent scraps.
