wow that fight wasn't scripted at all
Don King would have been proud of those judges after this fight. I will not be watching a second season if it even gets renewed. Anyone with half a brain who watched this could have told you that Steampunk did more damage, and got in more hits and should have won. But winning in 3 rounds wouldn't have been good tv, hence the scripting to make sure the fight went 5 rounds. The first 2 rounds, especially the second should have went to Steampunk. The broken actuator and all the turning points that occured(Steampunk's broken actuator, broken fists with 1 or 2 seconds left, Crash failing to get their arm on in time) were scripted to make sure the fight went 5 rounds. This show is a slap in the face to true robotic competition shows like Battlebots, Crash only won because of their design and not Amber and Dave. All of the robots fists were to large to get inside the plexiglass/roll cage not to mention that using their broken arms as a flail did more damage to the other robots than actually punching them did. Who ever got assigned Crash was gonna win if they threw enough punches. The only way I would watch is if for next season, all the contestants were given a body kit to start and let the contestants build them themselves.
