Predictions: 4 of 5 Winners, 2 Perfect, 315 Points   |   Tied for 36th with 26 others

Ki vs. Batebolati
Bahatebole Batebolati, TKO, R2
If Bahatebole can make weight he is my dark horse on the lightweight bracket, I think training with the Leech in the US will be diferential. Won Bin Ki is big too but I don´t think that chin will handle

Patilima vs. Haraguchi
Shin Haraguchi, TKO, R1
Haraguchi is the favorite of the lightweight bracket, his wrestling credentials are proof of that. I worry about his size. Patilima is the best heavier indonesian so It will be a good test for Haraguchi.

Ginting vs. Zhawupasi
Daermisi Zhawupasi, TKO, R2
Daermisi is the chinese wonderkid of this tournament, he is a physichal beast with a heavy wrestling base. I really think he will give Kamikubo a tough fight in the finals, but he is more of an unknown

I wouldn’t be too worried by the size difference in the haraguchi and patilima  fight because I don’t believe wendri is 5’9 and I believe he is 5’7 because his photo with paddy (who’s 5’10) he’s visibly a lot shorter so I reckon him and haraguchi will match up very similarly physically. Which makes me believe haraguchi is a lock of the whole tournament’s first bracket

I also watched him grapple with teddy stringer and he was getting dominated and all I’m going to say is haraguchi is 3 times the grappler stringer is and I’d put the house on haraguchi winning

Ki vs. Batebolati
Won Bin Ki, DEC
Push them back over the border!

Lee vs. Singh
Chang Ho Lee, TKO, R1
Extreme Combat is a decent gym and given the name, they must do some hard sparring

Patilima vs. Haraguchi
Shin Haraguchi, TKO, R1
I like Patilima's wins but Haraguchi won the Japan Freestyle Wrestling title and Japanese wrestlers can be really good in athletic abilities and potential

Ginting vs. Zhawupasi
Daermisi Zhawupasi, DEC
6-0 and 6-0 the China man has been more active though... Should be a great battle

Xiong vs. Danasoe
Peter Danasoe, TKO, R3
Muay Kap! He cant match the Thai grit

Good to know, Haraguchi's size worries me against Zhu and Bahatebole Who are actually really Big. But if he overcomes that he Will win the tourney

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 4 of 5 Winners, 3 Perfect, 350 Points   |   Tied for 18th with 5 others

Ki vs. Batebolati
Bahatebole Batebolati, DEC
Actually a really tough one. Batebolati has been training & fighting in the us, but man he sucks. Arguably 0-2 in his last two & is a nothing burger. Not really sure where he excels. Then ki on the other hand has nothing but some very impressive traps (I mean cmon dudes neck looks fused to his body🤣) not sure what to expect here

Lee vs. Singh
Chang Ho Lee, TKO, R1
Indian fighter. Enough said

Patilima vs. Haraguchi
Shin Haraguchi, TKO, R2
Out of all the Indonesians, patilima looks like the best. That being said, he drew the short straw for opponents. Shin is yet another Japanese wrestler & has wrestled at a very high level. He should smesh

Ginting vs. Zhawupasi
Daermisi Zhawupasi, SUB, R1
Daermisi actually looks really solid, especially for a Chinese prospect. I believe he has some wrestling background & that shows in his game. His striking is nonexistent, but his grappling looks really good. Facing another grappler, I expect him to win. Again, can’t trust these Indonesian guys

Xiong vs. Danasoe
Sim Kai Xiong, SUB, R2
Not really sure who to pick here. The Thai looks better on paper, but it’s hard to know how good his ground game is. Especially against a grappler

Lee vs. Singh
Chang Ho Lee
RRPS: Not a very active fighter looks to get the fight to the mat immediately Has a solid record, but very questionable opponents being that he is coming out of India, where the competition is known to be ****. Going to be larger than opponent, but not sure if he will be able to use that size advantage at all.

Patilima vs. Haraguchi
Windri Patilima
WP: on a decent winning streak with mostly submission wins, as solid pressure and cardio to last three rounds, decent power on the feet, but a little slow defensively wants to get the fight to the ground and press his opponents against the cage for most of the fight

Ginting vs. Zhawupasi
Daermisi Zhawupasi
EG: Scrappy fighter with high pressure and decent hands, but chin is untested Wants to get to fight to the ground and finish fights by ground and pound, not, incredibly active fights, have a year between them, which isn’t very good to see Not a very experienced fighter against competition has a similar record to opponent much smaller than opponent coming out of Indonesia so past competition is questionable

Xiong vs. Danesoe
Peter Danesoe
Can you take a solid shot and it’s tough not easy to get out of there HAs solid, striking with his Muay thai on the feet, but not sure about when he gets to the ground Fights, a little bit timid, and on the back foot small frame guy, but does have some wins and recent fights has the ability to get bullied and pressured and controlled on the ground and does have some wins in one championship, which is a solid promotion, but not sure how much stock that holds

Daermisi seems like one of the best Chinese guys in the tournament. He scored the second highest out of 33 fighters in a combine at the PI. His grappling seems really solid too

Still can't get over the performance of the Indian guy yesterday. If my front door is ever stuck and I wanted someone to break it open then I would definitely call him.

Jarring New Predictions

Predictions: 3 of 5 Winners, 0 Perfect, 150 Points   |   Tied for 213th

Xiong vs. Danesoe
I predict Sim Kai Xiong at -350. He has a gauche guillotine and an intelligent fallaway moonsault slam. Xiong could grind the production.

Ginting vs. Zhawupasi
I go for Daermisi Zhawupasi at -425. He has a luxurious brainbuster and a killer suplex. Zhawupasi won't deny the cutman.

Ki vs. Batebolati
I appoint Won Bin Ki at -160. He has an outrageous finger lock. Ki will likely vaporize the adversary. Believe in yourself!

Lee vs. Singh
I have got Chang Ho Lee at -350. He has a quick clawhold. Lee will perform the previous pitfalls.

Patilima vs. Haraguchi
I adopt Shin Haraguchi at -400. He has a radioactive stamina. Haraguchi will violate the chosen one.
