This is a little thing I made up
1. You're not biased when it comes to your Favorite Fighter battling someone who overmatches them by far. For example if your Favorite Fighter is Caol Uno and he's fighting Gomi and you know that Gomi will Win but you like Uno so much but you pick Gomi anyways and he Wins, then that is a sign that you make Great choices.
2. Always Pick your Gut Instinct than your Heart instinct, Say if Sakuraba is Fighting Dong Sik Yoon and your Gut tells you go with Yoon, but all of your fauth lies in Saku but you picks Yoon and he Wins then that is another sign that you make Great Picks.
3. You never take an undeafted Fighter who has nobody Wins on his record against an established Fighter with Good names on his Record. For example, when Jason Reinhardt fought Joe Lauzon a lot of people were telling me that Jason was going to Tool Joe but in reverse he got Tooled.
4. Another Rule is that If a Grappler with no Wrestling Skills goes up against a Striker with Great Wrestling then go with the Striker with Great Wrestling. A Great example of this is Chuck Liddell vs Vernon White, Chuck had the Great Striking and Wrestling and got the Win. Styles make Match Ups
So stick to these 3 rules and you'll be at The Top in no Time, Tell me what you think

i like rule 1, it shows you are level headed and aren't swayed easily. what i do is that i break number 2 a lot because i am able to convince myself of an outcome because my heart wants it. like when i was for some reason convinced Joe Daddy would beat BJ...
but, i am able to think level-headedly for secondary league and do much better there

Rule one is good but i always break it. I picked rich to beat anderson in the rematch, even though i know almost 100% anderson was walking out with the W. Albeit i figured it would be a closer fight that it was.

I dunno how people where picking jason and joe. I kinda gained a little respect for him for stepping up and fighting sombody with a winning record for once, but since that fight hes fought a guy making his pro debut and a guy whos 0-5. I mean, i just really dont know what hes trying to achieve and i find it difficult to have any respect for the guy at all.
