#DanKolov2019

Who ya' got? Burroughs or Chamizo?

By Eric Olanowski

RUSE, Bulgaria (February 28) - As we eagerly await the release of the 74kg Dan Kolov brackets, we can't help but think about the potential fourth matchup between the four-time world and Olympic champion Jordan BURROUGHS (USA) and two-time world champion Frank CHAMIZO (ITA). 

The pair split their first two meetings, but Burroughs clinched the 4-4 criteria win in the bronze-medal bout of the Budapest World Championships and secured the 2-1 match advantage. 

If the two superstars were to meet for the fourth time, they'd do so either on Friday or Saturday. But, before brackets the come out on Thursday around 16:00, we want to know whose side you're on. 

Get social with us on Instagram or Twitter and let us know who you're taking, why you're taking them, and what you think the final score is going to be!
