300 murders a year
iron kinda lost to both t top and jc too, if we are being technical,

but roc tweeted that this shyt is a popularity contest, and its whoever the people like at the moment. its no objectivity and its all hype. they penalize some for losses, ignore losses for others, they criticize 1 guy for having a poor performance even if they won, then act like another guy destroyed someone when they were not so great themselves (pat stay im talking to you) i just cant get with this panel and i hope jay blac get more guys with more in depth opinions than "he was fire" " he lost clearly" "what about when he lost * name some battle 5 years ago* etc

This is the most well articulated argument against the whole panel. This is how I feel about it. Roc and Shine got penalized for having debatable rounds in years where they didn't lose a battle, yet they're giving money to a guy who choked in three battles and another who got bodied twice in the same year.

I watched a little bit of it. They should have brought back the Russian guy. He brought energy during the first one.

Maybe I should have payed more attention to how this COTY thing worked this year. I thought the people who donated chose, yet you have a panel who decides who is in the top 20? How much influence did the people who donated really have on this list?
