Looks like Carwin will be the last tourney entry. Or at least fighting on the card.

This tourneys pretty legit tho

Former UFC Interim HW champ Shane Carwin, Cro Cop, One of the Best Sumos in the world, one of the best wrestlers roided as ****, Some pioneers, solid prospects and the returning tourney champ in King Mo. it's got a bit of everything.

King Mo is 8-0 at HW (5-0 recently) Has that win over Kongo that should put him in the top 20 world wide. if he didn't get robbed against Davis he would be on a 9 fight win streak right now. and probably Bellator LHW champion.

I'll give you that Wandy/Cro Cop 3 in more interesting in the *** factor cause it's a freakshow fight. But if you still think Cro Cop is a top HW then it's a legit fight. Unless they switched the matches once they added him then we don't know *** is going on.

I do like that King Mo is fighting CC.  Yes, Herring has not fought in many years so that should be a slaughter.

Aliakbari is my sleeper choice to win the whole thing. King Mo is the favorite but that chin is suspect and Cro Cop looks like he's back on some vitamins.

Murata might be getting slept-on against Nakai here. Her wrestling looked fantastic in her last fight.
