Good vs. HawnHieron vs. Weedman
What do you guys think of these match-ups, and who do you have winning? I think this is solid matchmaking.

As for Lyman Good vs Rick Hawn, Good will have a size and strength advantage that normally might be a problem. But this is a fight where Hawn might really be able to use his judo to good effect, and negate a lot of Good's advantages. I'm not really confident in this pick though.

I agree if Hawn fights smart and uses his Judo effectively he can take this fight. His striking looked good against Wallhead, but Good's striking might be a little much for Hawn.
Not giving Weedman much of a chance against Hieron.

I wonder if they're trying to set up Hieron vs Good in the finals. Weedman is no doubt the weakest link in the tournament, and Hieron is probably the favorite, so I definitely see him in the finals. The Good vs Hawn fight is a very solid matchup, I want to see if Hawn can use his judo more successfully in this fight, Wallhead kind of cancelled his judo out, but he did get one trip, and of course, it worked great against Maynard, so I'm curious to see how it will work against a top level (not judoka) fighter in Lyman Good. I was hoping to see Good vs Hieron, but I'm happy with what we got.

@Kokid951 I think he definitely was a game fighter, but not on level with Hieron. Even the ref thought so with that super quick stoppage.
