It's equivalent to Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps competing in the special olympics... It's just not a competition and no one gains anything from it.
The whole reason you get more if you bet on the underdog and win is so people will watch to see just how well each player is doing. The looser gains 5% attack/defense each loss. It's extremely hard to win all 11 bouts in the final. The 'art' is trying to figure out just when the underdog will win the bout(s) he/she will actually win.

And, the fact that there's one person that happens to be so far ahead of everyone else should have nothing to do with how many tickets one gets. It wasn't all that long ago we didn't even have CWF and the ticket system. It's not our right to get as many tickets as possible, it's something you should be actively engaged in - though from the sidelines. Banning someone because some feel they're not getting the tickets they 'deserve' is kind of selfish, in my opinion. I mean, you get tickets even if you pick the wrong person as the winner.
