Some people are saying that there are another 2 matches announced that are not shown there, which are: - Samushia vs Brandon Elsassor - Adam Wawrzynski vs Bacho Saginashvili I don't know where they found them. Maybe they just guessed them based on this list and the list of athletes that Engin confirmed for EvW7 (those are the 4 athletes that were in the list whose matches are not listed in Coresports) I would like to have your predictions on this matches and which of these you are most excited about?
Samushia swept Tullier, and Tullier had a war with Ellsessor, so I think Samushia is the favorite over Ellsessor. As for Adam, after what he did to Bozhidar I wouldn't bet against him. Hope those matches really are happening!
@@ryan_turner I get your point about Samushia-Tullier-Ellsessor but I have a question: did the Tullier-Ellsessor match have a weight cap? If yes, then does that make the match-up better or worse? Also I was very impressed about how Adam manhandled Bozho, but it is still very difficult to predict his match against Bacho. Georgians talk very highly of him (and that is already a big deal). Also I think the Saginashvili name adds at least a 44% strength to your performance. I mean, you would like to lose if that were your name.
@@44percentstronger lol I didn't take into consideration the last-name factor! As for the weight, i'll have to look back at the promo material. I don't recall off the top of my head. I mean, Brzenk did pull West at that event after all
@@ryan_turner I went back and checked the commentary. They said that Brandon had to cut weight for the 198lbs (about 90kg). So, if this is going to be a title match for the 85kg, I'd say Brandon has as good as 0 chances. If it is going to be a match without weight cap, then if Brandon comes with a solid 220lbs/100kg (the same weight that Paul Linn had when he had a close match against an out of break 87kg Samushia) then he might have a slight chance. I think that Samushia vs Adam Wawrzynski and Brandon Elsassor vs Bacho Saginashvili might be a better match-up (and it might be the case since I am not sure if that guy found those matches somewhere I don't know or just guessed them).
@@44percentstronger good find! It seems like Engin is really trying to keep things more organized and focused around weight classes and title holders, so I fully expect a weight cap
Also the vitaly match will be left-handed for sure. The Stats Card you mentioned at the beginning of this video says "left hand" right above the date (at the bottom of the card)
I have a lot of faith in Vitaly's left and I think he is the BEST in the world currently, he just has to prove it. I'm very happy to see Alizhan again, the guy is just such an anomaly. Also Genadi vs Devon has match of the year potential imo, total war
@@ryan_turner @ryan_turner Hahaha! Yes sir, God's will. Looking forward, been training hard. 💪🏾 Another great EVW card! Mega Salute to Engin, thru adversities, killing it for the sport! ✊🏾
He moved from Connecticut (where we would film and upload from practices) down to Tennessee. We should do an update zoom call or something and upload it
@@ryan_turner that would be awesome if you guys could do that. Dose he still arm wrestle. Or Has he said anything to you about competing at East versus West or even kott ?
@@THEMANWITHTHEYELLOWHAT. yeah he had a match against Withers a couple months ago (starts at 1h05m: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4owsKjvORgw.html)
@@ryan_turner on some of the items it lists the stock left on these cards it doesn't so who knows how many are left, that's why I got some before there gone, missed out on the first deck cause they were gone so fast
