Look, the decision wasn't based on the quality of the fights. They were actually pretty good. The problem was that it quickly became a way of turning Freddy and the Animatronics into butt monkeys rather than focusing on the fights themselves.

I mean, Shadow vs. Freddy Fazbear?

Starscream vs. Animatronics?

Akihiro vs. Animatronics?

Those were all pointless and only existed to maim the Animatronics. Way too many of those battles were.
