Devon Larratt turned an Istanbul airport wait into a quick East vs West 25 prediction show. His son Auden sat beside him and challenged a few picks.

The video on Devon’s YouTube channel covers the card rather than one matchup. Some favorites got blunt treatment. A couple of fights split the Devon and Auden right down the middle.

Vitaly and Kamil Got the Strongest Backing

Devon and Auden opened with Vitaly Laletin against Alizhan Muratov for the left-arm super-heavyweight title. Both landed heavily on Vitaly. The size gap drove their case, though they gave Alizhan proper credit for the violent win over Artyom Morozov.

They also wondered how much Morozov’s recovery affected that result. Fair question. The official record still gives Alizhan a 3-0 win, and the table rarely accepts footnotes after the pin.

Vitaly enters with the longer lever and the championship left. The recent Devon and Vitaly right-arm fight showed how different one side can feel from the other. Devon and Auden clearly expect Vitaly’s left to make the size gap count.

Their Kamil Jablonski pick came with even less hesitation. Both favored Kamil over Georgi Tsvetkov because the flop press arrives early and forces Georgi into an inside stop he may never get. Auden’s technical counterpoint gave Georgi some room. His cupping toproll could make the lane less clean than an open outside puller would.

Still, the family vote went Kamil. Our earlier Kamil and Georgi breakdown reached the same ugly doorway.

The Card Finally Split Them

Ibragim Sagov versus Yordan Tsonev produced the first real disagreement. One side trusted Sagov’s strength. The other backed Tsonev to find one of those stubborn inside rounds where the favorite keeps discovering fresh problems.

Nugo Chikadze against Krasimir Kostadinov created another split. Nugo received the hometown and versatility case. Krasimir got the hook argument. That matchup carries the best kind of prediction tension because both ideas can be true until the grip closes.

The airport format helped here. Nobody had time to sand the opinions smooth. A pick landed, the other chair pushed back, and they moved on.

Georgia Was Part of the Prediction

Oleg Zhokh received the safer lean over Luka Tsinadze, but Luka earned plenty of respect for his talent and willingness to talk. That opened a wider point about Georgian depth. Devon expects the surrounding King of the Table tournament in Batumi to be brutally hard because the local talent pool runs deep across combat sports.

They leaned toward Daniel Procopciuc over Vachagan Hovhannisyan. Paul Linn got the North American support against Eldar Bubenko, even while Eldar was treated like a serious problem. Gabriela Vasconcelos closed the rapid-fire run as the clear favorite over Irina Driaeva.
