i'll sum it up pretty simply:
-Chuck has made his career off of beating wrestlers/grapplers (Tito, Randy, Babalu, Horn, etc..)
+
-Rashad isn't even the best wrestler Chuck has faced
+
-Rashad went to a draw with Tito and fought at an even level where as Chuck outclassed Tito in each fight (not using MMAth but rather comparing the level they fought at against Tito)
=
Chuck scores a TKO over Rashad and Emfleek wins yet another avatar bet...
Sounds like MMAth to me.

It's not MMAth because he isn't saying "tito beats rashad and chuck beats tito therefore chuck beats rashad" he's comparing the performances of 2 fighters with very similar styles and offering other points to support his comparison. It's a legitimate argument.
It's not MMAth if you're making a comparison as a single point in a larger coherent argument. It's MMAth when you don't bother to offer any analysis other than fighter a beats fighter b fighter b beats fighter c thus a beats c. (because it's like a simplistic math formula)

exactly, although i guess adding the plus and equal signs really didn't help in tying to show that i really wasn't using MMAth

That avatar was probably the most effective avatar ever in an avatar bet. People actually thought you seriously loved Kimbo.

Agreed. I received probably 10 PM's questioning the avatar. Not to mention the numerous times I was flamed in 'public' for having the avatar. Kudos to gsquat for coming up with the idea.
