Rizin Lightweight GP pick?

[Dead Spirit of MMA]

Tofiq Musayev vs Johnny Case
Patricky Pitbull vs Luiz Gustavo
Winner vs Winner

Musayev is picking up steam as the dark horse and for good reason, I think. His technical style could be a good fit for a GP like this.

Here's something I noticed earlier. These four guys combined have 75 wins with 63 of those being finishes. That semi-final round is going to be tough and I think Musayev is the kind of guy who could avoid taking too much damage.

Winner of Pitbull vs Gustavo is likely to be completely fucked up unless someone gets a quick finish.

But then the same might be true of Musayev vs Case. It's a pretty aggressive group of fighters. I'm going with Musayev right now though.

I'll go with Case.

Pitbull will win the entire tournament. Cause baby yoda said so.

 

[GangGangGang]

I'll go with Case.

I think he's least likely to win

I'm picking the underdog here.

musayev will stop a tired pitbull. Then rematch in bellator in 2020.

I'd like to see Musayev win it all. He's been training super hard over at Team Alpha Male, and I really like Azeri's soooo, yeah LOL. I like Ptibull too, but anytime you see new blood rise up is a great thing, at that is what I'm rooting for.
