Eh, throw Tua in then.

I agree... The MDT is definitely the marathon competition of each season. Stamina, hunger for success & courage are prerequisites here.

I prefer The Super Six. Speaking as an old-fashioned boxing fan, I just love seeing all the best guys facing each other week after week. It makes for compelling reading.

Tua takes the 32nd spot... It's always better to have Managed fighters in there instead of CPUs.

I will make the draw with the same formula that I have used for multiple season now. With a quick reminder that Managers cannot have 2 fighters in the same group.

The MDT draw will take place very shortly...

Yeah. And only imagine, how it all can turn out now, when the Sim has both men and women rosters. We can actually make a crossover men-women competition. We should call it Super Sex.

Just to be clear, when it gets to the Quarter Final stage:

1: The 3 World Champions will be avoiding each other.
2: The highest ranked fighter between the 2 minor champs (IBO OR MGM) will also NOT meet the 3 World Champs.

And thanks to all the Managers who chose to compete, it is your (our) participation that makes the MDT such a prestigious event.
:TU:

And finally, a quick thanks to our Brother - Dottier Charredo for having the ingenuity to think of our great MDT...

The Sim wouldn't be the same without it...

great tournament this year, a lot of good fights and unexpected results....Joe Frazier wasn't even on my radar to win this thing but he pulled it off and also KO'd my top fighter on his way to the championship....Congratulations to Joe and his manager Techno89. (I wonder what the odds would have been for Frazier to win?)
