Anybody watching bellator tonight?

[Fracture]

Shamrock v. Gracie again


But I'm actually looking forward to seeing dada 5000 fight kimbo slice


If you have no idea who dada 5000 is peep Dawg Fight on Netflix

[The Dead Poet]

i will be watching this clown show.

[Ghost1]

Lol Kimbo slice smh. I liked him far better wen he was just beating the shit out of the poor men in his neighborhood for youtube views.

[Fracture]

Yea it's a circus card

[The Dead Poet]

a little off topic but I put 200 on Hernery Cejudo to beat Mighty Mouse (which isn't going to take place for awhile). got 6:1 odds. Figure it'll be at like 3:1 as the fight gets closer.

[Fracture]

That's a really good bet. I might look into that

I'm putting all chips in on holly holm.... She's a heavy favorite but It's basically free money

[The Dead Poet]

bro i can see her losing. Meshia seems like a bad match up for her to me. I get that ronda couldn't take HH down, but I don't think she really committed to doing so. Figure meshia will go for the take down relentlessly and hopefully Holly will be able to get back up...but I can see meshia keeping her on her back for awhile.

[Fracture]

I don't know man... Holms footwork is light years ahead of everyone in the division. I think she's going to dissect Tate with angles the entire fight


Any idea what the odds are for mcgregor/dos anjos? I'm basically taking the underdog either way. Hope mcgregor wins tho

[The Dead Poet]

they got it at

RDA +150
Mac -140

I don't like those odds. Think they're factoring it the size of RDA. I figure Chad was able to have his will with mac on the ground and just gassed from the quick camp and those body shots...but RDA is bigger and will be in better shape than that. He might be able to control the clinch with him. But I've basically said Mac would lose to; Poirrer, Mendes, and Aldo so wtf do I know. They guy has made me stfu about him haha.

[Fracture]

Good looks


I use bovada and haven't been on in a week. Had to take a bye week, basketball games were just having me break even


I thought mendes had the best shot. I thought Aldo would be a war. The dude backs his shit up and you know most of ufc fighters are hoping he takes an L asap

[The Dead Poet]

he's somewhat turned me around. The fact that he's getting so much money can only be good for other fighters. I think they're getting paid shit as of now. I read somewhere that If his ppv buys keep increasing at the rate they are (he'll have to keep winning) then what he's owed will litterally out grow the ufc. He'll have to become his own promotion (money may wise) and will probably have to Co-promote his fights with the UFC. There's a ton of what ifs for that to take place...but the fact that it's possible to me makes me think that the UFC is going to have to start forking over real money to these guys. With guys like Benson leaving to other promotions I really hope it forces the UFC's hand and starts paying these guys. rantover.

[Allen Knight]

lol at shamrock vs gracie, arent them niggas like 60.

but shit if its on a the bar i'll watch.

[ill nik-A]

I'll watch

[uh-oh]

Lol Kimbo slice smh. I liked him far better wen he was just beating the shit out of the poor men in his neighborhood for youtube views.

You should like this then. Basically gonna be beating up a poor dude from his neighborhood for tv views.

Should be two giant black behemoths throwing ridiculous. Kimbo is more precise tho. Dada is a big sloppy doofus.

That said watch one of them ho out and wrestle.

Ken shamrock is 52. Royce gracie is 49. We might have our first mma death when royce chokes ken to death and his roided out heart gives out and they cant wake him up.

Looking forward to this more then most ufc events.

The ufc got wack when everyone actually got good lol. I want to see people fight with reckless abandon and kill eachother

[Eŋg]

watch some robbie lawler, matt brown, thomas almeida or john lineker fights, uh oh.

the ufc is just a bit saturated. i don't know what the ratio would be, but some fights are still simply fucking ridiculous - even in the sense you're looking for. i could write a list of barbaric fights in the last couple years but i'm lazy.

but yea i'll watch dada probably get his head knocked off.

[uh-oh]

Word i still watch here and there but never live anymore. i stopped going out so watching the fights live at the house isnt the same. I keep up enough to watch big fights or if there was a big ko and etc, but its always the next day on google and shit.

I can appreciate the skill of todays fighters, just not for 3+hours straight. Everyone just plays it to safe.

But yea rory and lawler was dope.

Also the personalities have gotten bland outside a select few.

[Eŋg]

every time i begin to get bored with the sport an ill fight (or three) happens and i'm interested again.

i hear you tho.

[Vulgar]

Dada's getting 5000 brain cells removed from his skull tonight.

[Fracture]

Uhohs on point, but dada isn't much worse than kimbo. It's literally going to come down to who lands that wild haymaker first


Do you guys remember when kimbo got merked by a journeyman using back slaps and shit?

[uh-oh]

Lol gannon?

Was a classic. That was a giant white man. Kind of a terrible fight cuz kimbos boys going nuts when gannon was choking him and slinging him around. He took everything kimbo had for him. I was never more afraid of a human in my life. It wasnt like kimbo didnt connect cleanly numerous times. That dude just wouldnt die.

Head of stone.

[Resin M-I-C]

these two need a nap in between rds this is atrocious hahahah

i cant stop laughing

[Vulgar]

One guy is 38 and the other is 42. This is a young man's sport. They should retire.

[Inno]

So did dada win?

[ill nik-A]

So did dada win?

u didn't catch on the stick? there were plenty of links available

u shoulda hit me up

kimbo won cuz he threw a punch that glazed dada and dada went down due to exhaustion and they called it a TKO

it was roflzy bad

and the main event was even worse

[Ghost1]

Lol sounds awful

I watched that gannon vs kimbo fight just now tho lol. Kimbo the wackest lol.

[Orc]

that Kimbo fight was hilarious lmao

[Inno]

Come on son. Lol

[ill nik-A]

ill nik-A


Come on son. Lol

Lmfao

That doesn't exist I know

[Fart]

Wow what a desperate main event. No thanks. All of them are ancient

[Fracture]

What did anyone really expect?

Lmao@ dada and kimbo looking like they were underwater after 30 seconds


I didn't see Gracie throw a knee into shamrocks nuts at first, and the only replay they were showing made shamrock look bird owner crazy, but yea... He got his balls crushed

[ill nik-A]

Lol at shamrock repeatedly saying...he did it on purpose!
Lol dude, ure 2-9 in the past 11 yrs

[El Muffin]

How dude get knocked out by that punch thp

Didn't see the fight but bleacherreport kept playing this gif of dada getting kod by a punch that didn't connect lol

I wanna see post fight interview

[ill nik-A]

n/m

[Useless]

Kimbo vs Dada went down exactly as I predicted. And it was glorious. And hilarious.


Shamrock vs Gracie was a joke, but I thought ken would beat him bad, last time Gracie fought it was matt Hughes and it was at 170, this fight was at 205 and Royce looked like a malnourished African kid. Knees to nuts ftw

[El Muffin]

Welp Dada's street fighting circuit reputation took a hit

That's for sure

[Certain]

The world's saddest fight card. And Dada 5000 almost died: http://deadspin.com/report-dada-5000-was-in-critical-condition-and-his-hea-1760319953

[Useless]

Card was entertaining, in a cringey freak show kinda way. Reminded me of a pride card, if pride smoked crack


And I always enjoy seeing Melvin Guillard get knocked out

[Eŋg]

lol. dada doing his best ando impression with his back against the cage, hands down.

i hope bellator learned their lesson from these two pitiful marquee fights. probably not.

Niiice move.

High potassium in the blood. Subsequent fatigue due to weight cut

Explains the gassing . But this would happen regardless sans his heartstopping

People will watch another fight like this tho

Maybe bellator can carve it's niche w/ these type of fights

More than likely not but lol put Bob sapp vs a sumo wrestler or something. I miss those circus fights kinda

[Allen Knight]

shamrock stays lossing lol smh.

[Certain]

It seems as though Zuffa's stranglehold (and subsequent elimination of several of its own subsidiaries in favor of UFC) has reduced Bellator to a frivolity. I'm sure quaker oats can better explain it.

[oats]

the future of Bellator will be interesting. on the one hand, they're willing to put freak fights like this together, and people do actually watch. on the other hand, they sign guys like Benson Henderson, legitimate talents that butt heads with the UFC/Reebok for various reasons. I'd like to see Bellator, WSOF, One FC etc remain viable; free agency gives elite fighters more leverage to negotiate their contracts with the UFC, and those organizations let people continue to make a living once they've declined.

I don't like shit like last night, but I do generally like Scott Coker's style of matchmaking. Unless the UFC really fuck up somewhere, Bellator will be there to pick up the UFC's scraps and put on as many fun ones they can think of. that being said, I paid more attention to Blackout 6 than I did Bellator last night, which is saying something.

[Fracture]

Pride had a ginormous talent pool of fighters on steroids


Bellator has dade counties finest and Henderson lol

[Useless]

Bellator is a joke and should never be compared to pride. Pride was better than the ufc for a loooong time.


Wsof is a feeder league for the ufc so they'll never acquire any real stars

[oats]

I wouldn't sleep on Bellator. If the UFC/Reebok situation continues to be shitty, don't be surprised to see more elite fighters jump ship (Overeem and Sterling were seriously considering offers). They also have plenty of legitimate talent already on their roster not associated with the UFC (McGeary at LHW, Brooks at LW, Galvao at BW). It's no Pride, but it could very well become the second Strikeforce - Scott Coker's first organization.
