I'd probably feel differently if I knew anything about karate, but I don't, so yaaaaawn @ tournaments. Too many rules, not enough rage.

I apologize for worming out of the question…but for me it depends on the details and variables involved. The who, what, where, and I guess why? of
the specific situation. What are the stakes?

Ex. Daniel fighting an entire Hockey Team was pretty sweet…but then again the Tory v Sam was just as great in its own way. Also, Johnny vs Silver was really great in it’s way but was it better than Hawk and Robby? I dunno.

Ordinarily, I would prob. agree with you. Normally the street fights have an advantage because they’re savage no-holds barred type deals. This was a season tho. where the tourn. fights were arguably better than others…this wasn’t the case in the other seasons. The poolside fight got a bit too hokey for me. It started out cool…and then just full on cheese-fest.

I like the finals as I like to see all that training coming together and to see who wins the trophy at the end.

But I do like to watch the unsupervised brawls as well nail biting really ! so it's was a hard choice !
