What does everyone think of the matchups Serra put together?
[/ QUOTE ]
Seemed like Serra wanted to make sure his strongest fighter (George) made it to the semis and his weakest (Richie) got eliminated.
Putting Danzig against Kolosci was a smart gamble, I suppose, as Kolosci was one the few that had a snowball's chance of beating Danzig. Seems like Serra knows it's gonna be a George-Mac final and wants to give George the easiest route to the championship and Mac the hardest. If Serra picks the semis (not sure how it works), I bet he puts the winner of Ben/Tommy against Mac and gives George either Troy or Matt.
Right now I don't think Troy or Matt have any chance of winning, and Ben and Tommy are longshots, but they have a chance due to their physical attributes if they get lucky.
Edited to add: I think the Ben/Tommy fight is gonna be the best fight of the quarterfinals, and maybe the best fight overall, with the possible exception of George/Mac.
