hello,

lastly, a look at the oddsmakers and the numbers they give each week on the punting of bevois' nuts!! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

ok, a joke admittedly.

however, perhaps an article (or several) that cover the gaming aspect of the fight business. while there are many who gamble on such things (sports), not many people seem to understand how the gambling/oddsmaking impact the sport. this might appeal to the more cerebral fan type.

properly written, this type of article or report might give rise to "fantasy fight teams" and further interest in the globalization of the sport (this model would be ideal for ifl type scenarios, but would work in any league).

also, if such articles or reports were timely and accurate, fighters themselves might begin to take heed. in coverage of other (team oriented) sports, coverage often consists of analysis of team tactics as well as individual performance. fans might begin to more accurately assess thier favorite fighters performances if such coverage was given in analytical form (as opposed to strictly commentators remarks). while winning is the most obvious method of marking imporvement in a figher, many might appreciate being able to evaluate improvements in a fighters game that don't necessarily bring about a win (well, he lost, but his "xyz" and "abc" are a lot better this time around).

then, when bevois gets punted in the nuts, the fans can evaluate the kick technique and bevois reaction critically!!! who knows? at some point a victorious fighter may give a remark like "well, i wasn't gonna quit this time... after i saw that kick bevois took, and didn't even fall.... i knew i could keep going!!!!"

hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

thanks
