Doesn't he get Saad Awad first? Or are you just projecting a Rickels/Brooks finals? Because I'll be more worried of Sarnavskiy getting there over Rickels, but it'll be a fun fight regardless.

Rickets will get KOd by Sarnavskiy. I'm picking the Russian to win the tournament.

considering he's only been fighting pro for 2 years, has less than 10 fights under his belt and had less than a month to prepare for this fight, i'd say he looked pretty damn good against tirloni. he has all the physical tools, just needs to round out his game a little more which will come naturally with time in the gym & more fights.
i've got him winning the entire tournament.

It's hard to argue this. Good field though I could see anyone pulling the upset though.

He looked pretty good but he needs to tighten up his striking defense. He also seems to give up submission attempts a bit too easily.

The kid is a great prospect, he needs to work on his cardio a bit. Also, he got too sloppy on the feet and on the ground. He might get tapped against a top BJJ.......although there really isn't anyone like that in Bellator. There is no doubt that he has the talent
