This fight is So rigged.

Yes, all the Deadliest Warrior fights are rigged. The winner is determined by the computer simulation they do based on the (extremely flawed) weapons testing. It has nothing to do with an actual fight. The only thing to take from that show is the cool tests they do - any of the stats, battles, and half of the "experts" are useless as a source of information - entertainment, sure - information, not so much.

I saw one full episode of that show (and various little clips from other episodes) and thought it was a complete joke. It had such potential for being an awesome show, but instead came across like a bunch of frat boys playing with weapons and pretending to know about history. Then when they started assigning these arbitrary numbers to their "X factors"...yikes. The tests with the ballistic gel dummies are pretty cool, though.

I guess in the end the show did show how deadly weapons were. Like the morning star. That Thing just tore out 2/3s of the dummys face in 1 swing. Brain were hanging out. It was AWesome. Really activates your inner 9 year old.
