EDIT- Oh, and I'm getting 4/5 of the FYF this Saturday.

To avoid you blowing a gasket can you tell me why it was based around the strikes?

Also, loads of other people have said the finals were disspointing. Mostly due to injuries, but they still said thr finals were disspointing.

Hmm, maybe it's because it's freakin' Roderick Strong and Low Ki, facing off for the first time ever, one known for their hard chops and the other known for their stiff kicks? It's a match to prove their dominance in their first ever encounter together, and Cannon is stiff because he's the underdog in the match and wants to prove himself, so he adapts to their (Strong and Ki's style) and try to match their stiffness so he doesn't get left behind in the match. It's basically striker vs striker vs underdog that doesn't want to be the underdog so he adapts to a striker as well.

It amazes me that people don't understand why a match involving Strong and Ki against each other for the first time ever is stiff.
