I know, it is very farfetched, but we are writting predictions here.

It is totally baseless, but I'm thinking about a very strong Burgess, but not strong enough to keep his place as Blackbeard's Fleet Admiral.

Why am I doing that prediction? Because if Luffy gonna fight Burgess this arc will be extremely extended. Luffy should give two fights with major antagonists on this tournament and then continue fighting till the end of this arc. If Burgess is actually overestimated and lose that way, then the fight between Luffy and Machvise/Burgess/whatever could be an analogy between Pre-TS Luffy vs Blueno (A great fight before the real fight).

The most possible scenario is my opinion is that this tournament will never end, as Vazelos have stated, but I predicted some matchups in case this tournament ends fair and square.

There is another scenario I'm thinking of:

Semi-Final: Luffy vs Burgess, winner Luffy

Final: Luffy vs Diamante, winner Diamante

After a great fight between Luffy and Burgess, Diamante gets advantage of Luffy's bad injuries to defeat him fast. Rematch gonna take place later in this or the next arc.
