GK should not have been given a few weeks to play with DB prior to the match.
That's silly and obviously unfair. However, I think forcing GK to go into the
match cold was also unfair.

GK prepares for matches by studying how his opponents played in previous
tournaments. IMHO, DB should have played in a few tournaments before taking on
the champ.

But it's all a moot point now...
