SF1 Chigurh vs Marko Preview
Hello fight fans! This is the first official preview of the first official fight card of Sisu Fights, located in Helsinki Finland! Without further ado, I present you the main event:
Main event: 265 lbs title fight Anton Chigurh v Cain Marko
As Goldie would say, these guys look virtually identical! With brown belt BJJ and everything else top notch, both of these guys are really Elite killers. Their records are nearly identical too, 35-21 for Chigurh and 36-20 for Marko, and with the combined KO/TKO record of 50-34, this should be fireworks! Both fighters are already bit past of their prime, but I bet they are still hungry for another belt for their prize shelf. Marko has a distinct 25 cm height advantage which could play for his favor, unless Chigurh can close the distance and work on his deadly clinch game, like last summer when these two gentlemen collided first time. Back then Chigurh nearly finished Marko on second round, but nevertheless I'll give slight edge to Marko due to his recent strong performances.
Co-main event: 205 lbs Trevor Reznick v Jamal Jackson
Our co-main event is a battle between two up-and-coming, undefeated fighters (3 wins for Reznick and 2 for Jackson), Muay thai specialist Trevor Reznick versus boxer Jamal Jackson. Both fighters will likely want to keep the fight standing, so this should be fun fight for just bleed guys! Reznick has very versatile attacks on feet, both from distance and from clinch, whereas Jackson is more of a pure boxer. Jackson is never been hit in his professional fights, and Reznick has some serious knockout power in his hands and legs, so it will be interesting to see how Jackson reacts when somebody touches his chin. Due to the more mixed arsenal of offensive tools, I predict a TKO win for Reznick.
205 lbs    Chris Kyle v Janis Petke
Another match where someone's perfect record will take a hit, when ground and pounding wrestler Chris Kyle (2-0) takes on wrestleboxer Janis Petke (2-0). It is clear that Kyle wants to drag the fight to the mat where he can pound his way to the victory, whereas Petke will use his his counter wrestling in order to keep the fight standing where he can punch Kyles face to bloody mess. This fight is all about who can dictate where the fight takes place, so it's a real toss up, who has trained harder and who has a better game plan. Prediction: Kyle by TKO via GnP.
145 lbs    Clark Kent v Dean Kagelberg
If the co-main event was a going to be a stand-up war, this one is certainly going to be a ground battle, or will it? Wrestler Clar Kent (4-0) usually takes fighters to the ground without any set up and pounds away there, but now he is facing a BJJ specialist Kagelberg, who also has no stand up skills to speak of. Kent is a white belt in BJJ, so taking down brown belt Kagelberg is going to be a bit of a risk here, but for the sake of entertainment I hope he does do that, as this will be a horrible stand up match if it stays standing. On the ground, Kent needs to keep the top position and pick his shots carefully, or Kagelberg will twist his limps to a knot. On the otherhand, Kagelberg couldn't submit his last opponent who was also just a blue belt, and it has been reported that Kagelberg has been on a bit of a party streak on new years eve. Let's see if he can regain his energy by Saturday, or will he enter the cage with hangover... Prediction: Kagelberg by triangle submission.
Also on card:
170 lbs     Bokser Turniejowy (2-1) v Jim McJimmy   (1-0)
