I raised my stats with the console. I raised my stats to multiple different levels, and none worked. It made me feel as if the stats didn't matter at all, and the event was strictly random AF, and I was getting destroyed by shit luck RNG.
You could try restarting and just skip dialogue. I promise it doesn't take time to reach the tournament. It'll take tops 30mins.
When you restart just follow my guide on training Ian.

Does this chapter have a bug or is betrayal inevitable? Ian always shows up at Cindy's house even though he hasn't agreed anything with her, and has nothing to do with her anymore and this leads to betrayal, I thought it could have been a previous choice but I restarted the game and the same thing happened, it's annoying .

The stats are definitely included in script checks, so perhaps you've made some mistake when trying to modify them, and it didn't take? For example, it's easy to forget that if you modify a stat through console and then roll back to earlier spot in your playthrough, it reverts the stat to what it was originally.

There's no RNG at all in at least first three instances of any used action, for what it's worth.
I always load the save, which is in the dialogue right before the tournament, THEN use the console, THEN begin the tournament. I'm not rolling back, because it doesn't LET me roll back during the tournament. And the issue isn't within the first 2-3 actions, because I realize I get the same results every time on those. But it IS random AF in the others. And I NEVER get a winning result in ANYTHING that is random. I edited my stats to 4 or 5 in every category. The only thing I can think of is maybe it bugs out if I give him both grappling and fighting points. Or it just bugs out when using the console, at all.

If I do restart, it won't be any time soon. I've moved on to other games, for now. I'll come back at a later time, maybe.
When I get frustrated at something, I tend to just move on from it. And by the time I finally get to a point where I have absolutely nothing else to do, the game has usually left my interests and I no longer care. This is supposed to be a porn game. I don't tend to give many fucks for porn games that frustrate me. Porn is supposed to RELIEVE frustration. lol

Going the grappling route I posted is extremely consistent and I've never had any variance in it. Try that to win.

I agree. Kick-boxing suits Jeremy because of his long reach. Jiu-jitzu favours more compact characters like Ian and Wen. Ian's first opponent was not well-prepared to deal with a grappler. And as long as you make the correct choices, and avoid getting hit too hard, Ian stays in control through most of the fight. Later in the tournament, he's going to meet someone who does know how to deal with a grappler, which is when it will get more interesting. I'm not sure I've trained the boxing element sufficiently, so I might come unstuck later on, because of this?

At this point, does Ian even believe he can win the tournament? Isn't this all just a case of progressing as far as he can, without being overly bothered if he ultimately gets knocked out? The most important thing for Ian, is surely winning the book contest, because that will set up his future career as an author?

Has anyone been able to trigger the Alison scene in this update?
I've tried a bunch of different routes, can't figure it out.

Ah. Yes, the repeated actions turn random eventually (after the action is used 3 times, iirc). This i believe is to make the player vary their approach, by using a range of various tactics instead of just repeating the same move over and over and over. Or because writing 3 variants for each action is already plenty of work and doing more would be too much for what's essentially just a little sidequest. Or a bit of both.

The solution is basically like that old joke: "Doctor, it hurts when i do this." "Then don't do this." Vary your moves: use a mix of taunts, attacks, blocks and counters.

That's going to be an automatic block? I might need to redo my save if Cindy blocks Alison's romance.
Cindy's path is kind of greedy insofar as it blocks a lot of other options for Ian. Even if Ian doesn't try to romance Cindy, and only wants to fuck her, many of the early game options get cut.

if you are on Cindy's path than Alison scene is blocked.

So, going after your "buddy's" girl has consequences? Wow! Who knew? :unsure: /s
