Indian MMA fighter Suchika's semifinal against Singapore's Tiffany Teo ended in a draw even after an overtime round. India lodged a protest, but officials upheld the tie.

The decision has sparked debate among fans, many calling it a cruel way to decide a fight.
Why now: A weight-based tiebreaker, not fighting performance, decided the bout, prompting outrage and debate among combat sports fans.
