Still, its curious that Saji and Issei seems so sure Sairaorg will win, purely because they don't see how Cao Cao is going to stand up to Sairaorg's punches, while Vali is on the fence if Cao Cao will properly studies Sairaorg.

Basically, if Cao Cao doesn't do his research, it doesn't seem any of those three feel he can beat Sairaorg, which I feel is odd, because Cao Cao I feel should be the favorite of the two due to the fact that Cao Cao almost beat Issei in his True Queen form, while Sairaorg was defeated by it, and Cao Cao would have probably have won if Issei didn't use Gogmagog's bullet on Medusa's eye.
