TTT for Alan Teo
finals cardoso vs tavares.my pick cardoso by points.after the last meeting they had i'm confident cardoso will beat him this time.
lloks like a great tourney
Mrkulic all the way!!
I'm calling the upset and going with Jacobs. That guy was the strongest 159 I ever grappled, I can only imagine how strong he will be at 149.
jeff glover
Fowler and Glover should be the favorites for their accomplishments.
brackets are very even but I am rooting for my boy ALAN
Awesome
TTT for TT-Teo =)
Its a tough draw with any of those guys in there but I'll go with my boy Mrkulic.
JORDAN DAMON
This is gonna be the best tourn IMO.
superFreak
Mrkulic
I think that Fowler and Tavares will meet in the semi.
on the other side of the bracket, Teo is really good
and Jeff Glover has a good half guard game, can go
either way, but I will pick Teo who has more
experience, tough call. Last fight, a war of foot
locks, MrKulic and Cardoso are very good on that, can
go either way. Tough bracket, but I will pick my old
buddy Tavares to win it all. I wish I could be there
to support him and watch good fights!

DragonSpirit- I hope that we can work something out
