I agree.  It will probably be Shlemenko vs Baker.  I'm not sure if I would pick Alex by TKO again, or Baker by decision if they do meet in the finals.

this is such a great tournament my favorite of the season and definitely my top 3 overall by Bellator.  I already had Shlemenko in my top 25 rankings and entered Baker after his last fight the winners will definitely going to get a bump in the rankings.  I'm pulling for Vianna because he's on my fantasy team but either way the finals is going to have a heck of a fight

That was my fault wolfmanhowl.  I worded it poorly.  My edit fixed it.

still not that much chatter about this event, glad their is no UFC this weekend so I can actually watch the undercard because this one really has one of best undercards i've seen Bellator have

@cashbrewyn I feel the same way as you. With no UFC this weekend, I can actually watch all of a Bellator card for once.

I'm a little more anxious than usual for this card because I've been doing good on my picks for the past couple of Bellator events. Hopefully, the streak continues.
