[crusader]

I'd be very surprised if Dorticos-Kud went the distance.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

I'd be very surprised if Dorticos-Kud went the distance.

That would be the most surprising possible first round result for me.

[Taansend]

Perez wins the lot

[crusader]

He could, but he'll need to show significantly more energy. I lean Usyk but it wont surprise me if he doesnt win.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

Dorticos!

[crusader]

I like Dort and he shouldn't be written off. He had a hell of a time with Kalenga and needed to come from behind to win, but he showed good (and late) power, along with plenty fortitude. His biggest weaknesses in that fight seemed to be that he'd go through stretches of being overly passive (even shortly after scoring the knockdown), and Kalenga was able to physically out-man him inside for much of the bout.

He's certainly dangerous and I like his chances of KTFOing Kud

[dagilechia]

Usyk KO 10 Huck
Gassiev UD 12 Wlodarczyk (scorecards like lets say 120-108, 118-110, 117-111)
Briedis KO 8 Perez
Dorticos KO 6 Kudryashov

Usyk UD 12 Briedis ( 115-113, 117-111, 117-111)
Gassiev MD 12 Dorticos (114-114, 115-113, 116-112)

Usyk UD 12 Gassiev ( 117-111, 116-112, 115-113)

[Ossyrules]

It's a bit boring from me, but I'm going with usyk. It's a great group they have here but he has a slight edge to take it

[mullenman]

Perez wins all three by knockout

The man's an animal

[Tarkus]

I'd be very surprised if Dorticos-Kud went the distance.

I'd be very surprised if Kud lasted 4 rounds.

[GalenBadBoyBrown]

Dorticos!

I agree with Dorticos, he has a very strong pace and great power at least he did when I fought him maybe I was caught by surprise and cut to much weight but he for sure gave me a name to remember lol

[klitoris]

Dorticos!

I agree with Dorticos, he has a very strong pace and great power at least he did when I fought him maybe I was caught by surprise and cut to much weight but he for sure gave me a name to remember lol

You got TKO'd in 30 seconds. How can you possibly accurately evaluate how much power and pace he has if you haven't even went half a round with the guy.

still, he went vs Dorticos more than anyone of us so his opinion is always interesting.

[boxing_rocks]

Ok klitoris look at my record has any other fighter in 86 professional fights done the same well I can answer that for you no the only other time I was stopped in one round was Joey Abel so with that being said I have been in there with him and you haven't so that is who I choose

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

Usyk def Huck - late KO
Breidis def Perez - mid KO
Gassiev def Wlodarczyk - clear decision
Dorticos def Kudryashov - early KO

-------------------------------------

Usyk def Breidis - clear decision
Gassiev def Dorticos - mid KO

--------------------------------------

Usyk def Gassiev - dominant decision

That's my set of predictions. Though to be honest the only one that would surprise me if it was wrong is Usyk-Huck - can't see Marco having any success there. The rest is up for grabs.

[cuban glass]

Perez and Dorticos are only in there because they are black. They are the token blackboys of the tournament. The promoters felt they had to put one or two in. Cruiserweight is completely dominated by white fighters, black cruiserweights are awful/

[Sammybee]

Dorticos will be in the final
