Does anyone know what's going on as far as who will fight if someone gets injured.
I ask this only because there are 2 reserve fights instead of the usual 1.

Yes,I'd also like to know which one of the reserve winners will come foward first incase they are needed. Maybe a reserve tournement with the winner of JLB - Amada versus the winner of Abidi - Gary? :D Anyway, I think it's very unlikely for any of them to participate - If I rememeber correctly, if the winner of a bout can't continue, then the one of LOST will go in his place. The only way a reserve fighter is called is when the looser too can't continue, due to injury also or if he lost his fight by KO... Could be wrong though.

Yes, as that happened with Hoost in 2002 I was wandering if thats the system then why the hell do they have a reserve match??
I think they should put the reserve fighter in if the winner can't go on. Especially when they are knocked out.

got confirmation, though not on the ordering.
What I can say is if there is an injury amoung the GP fighters, the reserve fight winner will get to fight as the first option...if he cannot, then the next option is the loser of the original GP fight.
