Why so many draws?

Post by Controversial »

There seems to be quite a high rate of drawn fights, is that normal for the sim?

It's normal when you have so many fighters who are evenly matched.

exactly, most of the fighters this season are closely rated and that can make for some interesting fights but it also can lead to many Draws depending on the judges and what they like to see.

I'm sure you're frustrated with the results of Carlos Ortiz' last few fights(I would be too), all I can say is, you've been matching him up very tough and while he can certainly win some of those fights he's just not had the luck of the scorecards, I'd suggest trying to give him an easier fight to get him back in the win column and get some momentum.

Hey Fist....during the LHW season....didn't you have a fighter that came over/under trained an unusual amount of times? Jimmy Bivins maybe? It was set for random back then......and draws are just part of the odds matrix...IMHO.


Fist...do you use the random setting for conditiion?....or are you sending everyone it at peak performance?

Does it matter how they are matched then? I just assumed as they are sim fights their conditioning, fitness etc... was the same in every fight?

conditioning, trainers, cutmen, judges, venue etc. is all set to 'random' for every fight.

and buzz I remember Bivins came in the condition of "fights too frequently' 3 or 4 fights in a row, which is pretty crazy when you think of the odds.
