[Kristo Pöyry]

I definetly hope that someone from finland makes some stuff happen this year although i don't think that the under 66kg Div. would be the best. Sorry a bit OT

[Cody Kietzman]

I agree

+100 Brotello knows!

[Jason Mallory]

Anyone have the brackets or know who Denny's first opponent is ?

[Tony Toffolo]

Nothing really comes close to -65.9kg division. It's stacked with monsters from top to bottom. I really hope Rodolfo Veira gets matched with Roger Gracie though.

[Paul Wade]

Agreed. All divisions look tough though.
