Awesome start. I like that Ratchet won and the set-up to her first title defense. I look forward to seeing what she can do. Thank you for posting.

Thanks Crimson and Konishoner! I have 3 daughters (twin 7 year olds and a 10 year old)... one of the twins came over to see what I was doing and see if she could play while I was doing the GP Finals. After I explained how Ratchet was the only girl in the tournament, she begged to play as Ratchet against Vincitor and won... and then I explained how she'd won the tournament and she went screaming to tell her sisters about how a girl beat all the boys and such. Now the wife and I are worried that she's going to be crushed when Ratchet eventually loses the title.

News and Notes
Next PPV: IFC #1 IFC's next PPV will be IFC #1; and feature Tick Tock defending the Grand Championship in the Main Event. But who will his opponent be?
IFC Match Makers Announce Page Playoff for #1 Contender At IFC Fight Night Live #3, IFC will use the Page Playoff System for the first time to name the #1 Contender to the Grand Championship, who will face Tick Tock at IFC #1. For those unfamiliar, the Page Playoff System is a four-team seeded tournament, which gives an advantage to the #1 and #2 seeds over a standard single elimination tournament. The playoffs consist of four matches:
- 1-2 Match: Seed #1 vs Seed #2, winner moves directly to the Finals, loser advances to the Semi Finals
- 3-4 Match: Seed #3 vs Seed #4, winner moves to the Semi Finals, loser eliminated
- Semi Finals: Loser of the 1-2 Match vs Winner of the 3-4 Match, winner moves to the Finals, loser eliminated
- Finals: Winner of the 1-2 Match vs Winner of Semi Finals
The top 2 seeds get the advantage of only needing to win 1 match to make the finals; and also being able to lose a match and still win the tournament. The 3 and 4 seeds need to win two in a row to make the finals, and 3 straight matches to win the tournament.
Rankings Shakeup at IFC Fight Night Live #2 To prepare for the #1 Contender Tournament, the match makers declared that FNL #2 will be a special Top 10 Shakeup edition. The Top 10 ranked fighters were put into a hat and drawn into matches; the rankings at the end of the night will determine who gets into the #1 Contender Tournament and, more importantly, what seed each fighter gets.
The Lineup for FNL #2 is: #6 Punk AD vs #7 Rocky #5 Death Star vs #9 The Messenger #3 Tiki Boom vs #10 War Hawk #1 Ratchet vs #8 Yoko Ohno Main Event: #2 Ken Po vs #4 Vincitor
Upcoming Schedule Fight Night Live #2: Rankings Shakeup Fight Night Live #3: #1 Contenders Page Playoff Fight Night Live #4: last show before IFC #1
IFC #1: Tick Tock defends against the #1 Contender!
