Who is the livest underdog?

Everyone is talking about Hari vs Overeem vs Schilt vs Remy,here is a question for the change: who do you give the best chance for make an upset at the first round of the WGP finals,and why?

Ruslan Karaev? He already won against Hari,and was probably leading on the judges scorecard in their second fight before that infamous finish.

Ewerton Teixeira? Some say that he is the weakest link in the finals,but he is a very tough fighter,with strange timing,hard to fight against.

Jerome LeBanner? He said "when youve got nothing to lose,thats when you are dangerous". He got nothing to lose,he is past his prime,with injuries,but still have a heart of a lion,plus his agressive style is not what Semmy likes to fight against.

Errol Zimmerman? He had a 3 fight losing streak not too long ago,but two of those were FotY material fights against Aerts and Hari,and the third one was a cut. He performs the best when he is fighting the bests. Will his flying kicks and hard right hooks break Remys defense?


who is your pick,and why?

zimmerman if anyone can cause the upset. He's got very fast hands and has been more motivated than ever.

lebanner is not gonna win, Karaev was humiliated by Gerges last week, and teixera is one dimensional and easy prey for Turboreem.

Karaev. Badr has a weak enough chin to upset if Badr doesn't build his offense on lowkicks and I can see him outpointing Alistair or Texeira on number of blows alone. Schilt would be a harder opponent, but its not like Schilt has an iron chin either so maybe if Karaev hits him like he did Kim Young Heun.
