i like the look of teh heavyweight one... will give everyone some answers of what state solis is in.. and we will get to see if there is any substance in guys like magomed, takam and this aussie fellow... I am going for solis to win it though..

I thought charr was going to be in the this ?

I'm surprised he's not. Maybe he has plans for other fights in Europe.

Shame Amir Mansour isn't in it, I think it could be one of his few chances to fight anyone of note considering his age.

Yes. But with his status as the first replacement, he may still have an opportunity.

In tournaments like this one, someone is likely to drop out, either due to injury or for some other reason.

Is this televised? Any idea where? This is really good. Some nice looking matchups. Id say it will be plagued with withdrawals tho
