I take it that the ZST amateurs (pre stage) get promoted to pro pretty quickly. Am I right in my assumption?

For those of you who are wondering.
TAG TEAM matches have no affect on a fighter's professional record.
And holy fuck, Yano's in a tag match without Imanari there to pull his out out of trouble? Uh oh, looks like Yano's going to get fucked up. Sad too..yano's always my fave.

This is why MMA is sometimes stupid.. a guy is rolling around on the floor trying to grab your foot, and you can't kick his face in because rules prohibit it.. thats bullshit.. a fight is a fight, if somebody locks onto your leg like that, why shouldn't you be able to kick his head in

Ehh, the only thing that binds mma orgs together in commonality, is the fact that you can use both grappling and striking. Some orgs are different, some have different rule set, don't give me that bullshit about how MMA is somehow now standardized and has to follow the unified rule set.
The Unified Rules are the biggest joke in the MMA world. Oh sure, lets once again, try to take the lead in the world of MMA when clearly that the united states are the most conservative country in MMA in terms of rules.
Fuck that bullshit, ZST keeps thing interesting, it's more grappling orientated, which is cool, it has some crazy exciting grappling fights, strikers do have a bit of a disadvantage I suppose, but to adapt and still win, means you are successful, because while rules do affect fights, how the fighter who is put at the disadvantage because of those rules and adapts and finds a way to win, is more impressive to me.
Anyway. WAR YANO.
Yano wins the tag match byt face smothering ass-scissor.

An MMA Tag Team match is the gayest thing I've ever heard of.
Or as my Quebecois friend would say "That's Gayness Supremacy"

uhhh tag matches are pretty much the complete opposite of gay. unless "gay" is a good thing like in the case of hard gay.

I, along with most of the people on here, respectfully disagree with you.
