Round structure incentivizes finishes
CJI uses timed rounds and an MMA-style 10-point-must scoring system, with hard stalling penalties and a winner-takes-all million-dollar prize, specifically to incentivize action and finishes—preventing the common dynamic where a competitor takes a dominant position early and stalls to ride out a points lead.

“Because it's 10,001 to show up and a million to win, if you aren't first, you lost, there's no reward for second place. So, I'm punishing the one position I've only ever been able to achieve in tournaments.”
