If bellator did ppvs every 2/3 months they could put on great cards. There's always 1 or 2 great fights on every card they put on. I love all the free fights they put on spike but if they slowed it down and did less shows, they all would be awesome.

There's no USADA in Bellator, and let's be honest, Silva was on gear as well. I'm guessing age and severe ring rust (3+ years) is the primary reason. Tito's also on the juice.

If Anderson was on gear then are you saying he refrained from juicing in the hotbed where there was no testing (japan). But started where there was some testing (north america)..If he was on gear then how come his T/E ratio has never drawn red flags? There was a period where everyone with irregular T/E ratios was getting outed why was he never caught or in the conversation. I mean every Brazilian from his era but the Nogs seems To have been using in the 90/00s right, why was he never caught? Even Jones's tests for Cormier drew red flags and that was before the official USADA era but never silva?

Is there a possibility he was? Of course but do you have proof? To use the nick diaz fight to tar a brush through his career is kind of funny, especially when you say sonnen dominated him in that fight. Well we know for a fact he had x17 the amount of Ts a normal man is suppose to

Bellator 170 salaries: Tito Ortiz hauls $300K in retirement fight

Tito Ortiz took home a nice little pay check in his final career fight.
Esther Lin, MMA Fighting
INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Tito Ortiz left his gloves in the cage, but took home a nice pay check.

“The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” made $300,000 disclosed for his retirement fight, a first-round submission win over Chael Sonnen in the main event of Bellator 170 on Saturday night at The Forum, per a document obtained from MMA Fighting from the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC).

Ortiz, 41, said coming in that it would be his last fight. Afterward, he took off his gloves, gave them to his son Jacob and Jacob left the gloves in the cage. Ortiz (19-2-1), a Southern California native, is a legend in MMA, one of the most significant figures in the history of the sport and the former longtime UFC light heavyweight champion.

Sonnen pulled in $50,000 disclosed for the loss. Neither he nor Ortiz had a win bonus figured into their contract. It’s likely that Sonnen, a former top-drawing pay-per-view attraction in the UFC, made more than the disclosed number.


In the co-main event, Paul Daley and Brennan Ward both made $50,000, with neither contracted for a win bonus. Daley won by vicious first-round knockout via a flying knee.

Here are the full disclosed purse figures:

Main card (Spike)

  • Tito Ortiz ($300,000 + no win bonus = $300,000) def. Chael Sonnen ($50,000)
  • Paul Daley ($50,000 + no win bonus = $50,000) def. Brennan Ward ($50,000)
  • Hisaki Kato ($30,000 + no win bonus = $33,000) def. Ralek Gracie ($33,000)
  • Emmanuel Sanchez ($20,000 + $20,000 = $40,000) def. Georgi Karakhanyan ($24,000)
  • Derek Campos (19,200 + $15,000 = $34,200) def. Derek Anderson ($7,800)


Prelims (bellator.com)

  • Henry Corrales ($14,000 + $14,000 = $28,000) def. Cody Bollinger ($2,500)
  • Guilherme Bomba ($12,000 + $12,000 = $24,000) def. John Mercurio ($2,000)
  • Kevin Casey ($10,000) fought to draw with Keith Berry ($3,000)
  • Alex Soto ($3,000 + $3,000 - $6,000*) def. Demarcus Brown ($2,000)
  • Chinzo Machida ($10,000 + $10,000) def. Jacar Ocampo ($1,500)


Un-aired prelims

  • Jacob Rosales ($2,000 + $2,000 = $4,000) def. Ian Butler ($1,500)
  • Mike Segura ($1,500 + $1,500 = $3,000) def. Tommy Aaron ($2,000)
  • James Barnes ($2,000 + $2,000 = $4,000) def. Rob Gooch ($2,000)
  • Curtis Millender ($2,000 + $2,000 = $4,000) def. Johnny Cisneros ($2,000)
  • Colleen Schneider ($3,000* + $3,000 = $6,000) def. Chrissie Daniels ($4,500)
  • Jalin Turner ($1,500 + $1,500 = $3,000) def. Gabriel Green ($2,000)
  • Jack May ($2,000 + $2,000 = $4,000) def. Dave Cryer ($2,000)
  • Daniel Rodriguez ($1,500 + $1,500 = $3,000) def. Christina Gonzalez ($1,500*)


*fined 20 percent of purse, 10 of which goes to opponent, for missing weight

That and the fact he never gave Tito that apology at the post fight press conference.

I still don't understand why Bellator does not use cards like these to slip in anew exciting, young, undefeated fighter as the first fight out the gate.

They are starting to remind me of the old USA Tuesday Night Fight series where they had the seniors tour.
