ROAD FC 47 - Openweight Grand Prix

It's been 2 years since the last Openweight GP and this one marks the beginning of annual ROAD Grand Prix. The opening round will happen in Beijing. I assume they decided on Openweight since Aorigele is one of their top stars and they are in need of non-rematch title fights for Mighty Mo.

Excellent

 

mighty mo by armbar

 

Who is the other American beside mo /

 

I don't think Mo will be in it, they didn't book A Sol in the Lightweight tourney so I think winner probably fights Mo. My guess is Huggy Bear is almost certainly one of the Americans

 

Here's the participants I assuming will be in this OW GP based on their flags....

China: Anding Ma
France: Alan Baudot (HEAT LHW champ)
China: Aorigele (confirmed)
Romania: Alexandru Lungu
Korea: Hyun Man Myung
USA: Huggy Bear Barnett
Australia: Peter Graham
USA: Jake Heun

 

Na, the Korean will be bae choi. Myung will fight mighty mo.

 

Well, Mu Bae is on a 3 losing streak (including Heun)

 

lets get tim sylvia in this thing

 

I don't see myung being in the tounry. He was already scheduled to fight mighty mo twice before. Pretty sure he'll fight mo when he's healed up and the winner of the tourny will most likely fight the winner of mo or myung.

 

We need the best shw in the world’ (Lungu) in this tournament

 

Probably Jake heun but he wasn’t allowed in to China the last time they booked him. So not sold on him being there

 

HUGE

 

your wish came true

 

if the fight will be legit then Lungu will kill Aorigele

 

the big man.

can't wait to see lungu again.

 

Lol!!!! He is the my favorite to win it all

 

Is that Chinese guy the fat one who fought Sapp ? If so I'm genuinely concerned for his safety.

 

yes he's the same guy

 

It's not as if either of them are facing high level opponents.
