With this in mind DSE asked Ryo Chonan (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1831) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1831@@Ryo Chonan)), Ikuhisa Minowa (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=250) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=250@@Ikuhisa Minowa)), Tatsuya Kawajiri (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1326) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1326@@Tatsuya Kawajiri)), Akihiro Gono (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1217) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1217@@Akihiro Gono)), Ryuta Sakurai (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1270) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1270@@Ryuta Sakurai)) and Masanori Suda (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=440) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=440@@Masanori Suda)) to pick the winners from both the heavyweight match between Mirko Filipovic (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=2326) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=2326@@Mirko Filipovic)) and Fedor Emelianenko (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1500) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1500@@Fedor Emelianenko)) and the winners in both the semifinal and final matches of the middleweight tournament.
Ryo Chonan (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1831) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1831@@Ryo Chonan)):
• He thinks the key heavyweight bout lies in whether or not Fedor can take down “Cro Cop.” With this in mind Chonan sees “Cro Cop” scoring the high kick KO
• He thinks Silva will win via judge decision
• Overeem is dangerous in the beginning, especially with the guillotine choke, but Chonan feels Shogun is going to win by KO later
• Chonan sees Silva over Shogun in the finals
Masanori Suda (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=440) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=440@@Masanori Suda)):
• Mirko will win via KO
• Silva over Arona via KO
• Shogun over Overeem
• Shogun over Silva in the finals
Akihiro Gono (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1217) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1217@@Akihiro Gono)):
• Mirko over Fedor via high kick KO round one
• Arona over Silva
• Shogun over Overeem via KO
• Shogun winning the finals
Tatsuya Kawajiri (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=1326) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=1326@@Tatsuya Kawajiri)):

• Probably Fedor over “Cro Cop” by ground-and-pound if Fedor can take Mirko down. However the question is, can Fedor takedown Mirko?
• Silva over Arona by decision
• Shogun over Overeem by decision
• Silva over Shogun
Ikuhisa Minowa (http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?fighterID=250) (Pictures (http://www.sherdog.com/news/picture_gallery.asp?f_id=250@@Ikuhisa Minowa)) (by far the most colorful and interesting character in Bushido took some time to share his deep thoughts regarding the outcome of the upcoming show):
• About the winner of Mirko vs. “Cro Cop”: “I have no idea … probably decision
• Winner of Silva vs. Arona: “I have no idea. I can’t even imagine what kind of fight this will be.
• Winner of Shogun vs. Overeem: “I don’t know, probably Overeem.
• Tournament winner: … I’ve no clue.

Minowa is such a weirdo...I can't wait for Baroni to stomp on his head again.
