SUB-DIVISION PRIZE FIGHT RULE
Fighters in the 9 sub-divisions cannot compete for titles in their native sub-division — no belts exist there. However, they can Prize Fight in the adjacent Core division above or below their weight to compete for EDG gold. All Prize Fights — regardless of weight class — count toward the fighter's official ranking points. No fight is ever off the record.

TITLE DEFENSE STREAK BONUS
Each successful title defense earns the reigning champion a stacking cash bonus — per belt, not per fighter. Capped at $25,000. Holding multiple belts does not multiply the bonus.
