I hope I'm allowed to join in this discussion without being accused of "bumping". And Pollman, it would be nice if we could just discuss the issue without any more name calling etc.
Regarding what you wrote about fights being stopped "prematurely", for whatever reason, yeah, they usually are less satisfying to watch. The girls involved will have been pacing themselves for a longer fight, so the result seems a little inconclusive.
On the other hand, if everyone involved knows beforehand that the first submission wins it - including the customers who buy the clip - then how can ending it after the first submission be described as "premature"?
CCC clearly state that these are short , one submission fights, and they price them accordingly.
Regarding ECC, I too am a fan of that producer and a member of their yahoo group. I've read there that ECC are themselves now filming short, single submission fights - the producer refers to them as "one-shot-matches" which they are going to be selling along with their usual 25min matches.
Also, it's true that Marla has had at least one fight with ECC, using the name "Scarlet". That match hasn't been released yet, but if you look at the date when the photographs of her fight with Tegan were taken - 14 Nov - that match clearly took place AFTER her move to ECC. In other words Marla is now fighting for both companies, which - and I think you'll agree with me on this at least - is great news for fans like us.
