i thought marcello focused on mma? anyway, depends how much he's into this, a 100% garcia is the obvious favorite.

i hope fowler does well, he's a great guy.

It's more fun to pick the final 4-

Marcelo, Leite, Fowler and Kron

Wish we could do brackets for this...

I think Sergio is the dark horse even tho he won last year. Bill Cooper is missing from this weight, did he move up? Or he's not competing period?

I think you fellows are sleeping on some of the other big names in there with a chance to win - finfou nascimento, regis lebri, rogel and maybe even tiago alves.

There are so many good guys in the division its going to come down to bracketing and who wants it more.
