Malikov may catch Monson on thier feet but I doubt it, he will get Monson'd. And Ka will get out Monson'd.

malikov has a punchers chance but i hope not im a big jeff monson fan!!!

having said that ka is a difficult cookie for anyone on the next round...

I'm going with Monson over Malikov. Looking forward to seeing how Ka does in the next round. Could be a sleeper in this GP.

Ka-Monson would be an interesting match up, if it comes to be. Grappler vs grappler at HW.
