I must say, I'm slightly skittish with the Giyasov and Madrimov matches. Giyasov has a glass jaw, he was badly rocked a few times by Emmanuel Taylor and Madrimov was in horrible shape against Eric Walker for a round or two. So if there's going to be an upset, it might be in one of those two matches. Also while I'm impressed by Turarov, McKenna is a tricky mofo, and easily beat Davies, but was robbed, so a slight upset is possible there.
You've already said this CST, now you're making me question my pick, or are these tactics from you to move up the leaderboard I should have changed my Troyanovsky pick yesterday
While yes, it is a little bit of.... This content is protected ....... on my part. However, I am being serious. I was going back and forth quite a bit before settling on my picks. Giyasov should be able to get the win, and Madrimov skillswise is levels above Kalombo, but I've seen clips, and mothr****er hits like a 10 ton hammer and has a 100% KO ratio. So one screw up by Madrimov, who can get reckless, it could be lights out.
I really rate Madrimov and have been hyping him up, saying he's the best 154lbs fighter, so hopefully he backs my hype up. Against Walker he only had 5-6 week preparation / camp, and actually knocked Walker out in the 10th or 11th by the referee made a stupid decision to not count the knockdown. That was a good fight too, 50/50 and one McKenna would have won for me despite being the betting outsider.
