The problem is, they cannot justify Kuclo if he subpar...they can't leapfrog him over those who are far better in terms of conditioning, shape, freakiness, separation.
Sure, they can give him a win over Beyeke, particularly when I believe a friend of his was either judging the show or was a promoter, but when you have something like the Arnold or O, you have to be on point (unless you are Branch)...
If Kuclo is on point, I can see them justifying him.
We, the fans, keep acting like there is accountability. There isn't and there never has been. Looking at the top ten who's going to be left competing when it's time to pass the torch, everyone ahead of him is closer to the end of the career rather than the beginning, outside of Ramy.
I could care less who won, but Heath shouldn't have gotten a clean victory, Kai, despite his past or how he looked at the night show, was better in pre judging. He should have showed in the same condition for the finals; the fact that he'd couldn't/wouldn't/didn't says everything. If he can't keep the same conditioning for 48 hours, after a lifetime of competing, than he didn't deserve to win. Or he's in the wrong sport.
That said if it was decided it was Kulcos time he'd win, period.
