Bellator 222 [6/14] "MMA at the Mecca" (Rory(c)/Gracie, Chael/Lyoto, Caldwell(c)/Kyoji, Aaron Pico)

[trick]

On paper, this is a very good card. But this is Bellator, so there's no guarantee that this is going to be good. Aaron Pico, Ricky Bandejas and Rena are fighting on the prelims. Aaron Pico being rushed back after being KO'd brutally four months ago is retarded.

There is no build up for this event. Bellator and DAZN produced two hype videos for Darrion Caldwell and that was it.

This will be on DAZN. Prelims start at 6:30 pm EST, main card starts at 10 pm EST.

They got Rena on loan and made her the first fight on the card?? Bellator playing a dangerous game with Pico matching him up with Borics, Borics is no joke.

I have no idea tbh. I imagine a bunch of these fights are actually postlims since this is Bellator. Putting Aaron Pico and Rena before Heather fukkin Hardy and some 46 year old Jewish guy is very Bellator though

My DAZN subscription just expired, but that card looks really good

My DAZN sub expires in October, let me know if you wanna split the account until it expires.

This is a really good card (on paper).

Main & Co-Main should be interesting!

I think Guchi beats Caldwell even easier with the cage. Can't get trapped in corners and more open space to maneuver without the ropes, I think he takes Caldwell out by KO.

Sonnen's mouth still getting this much mileage with cacs? Dude's ability and fighting style is trash.

Why is Dillon Danis on the main card still?

After Rory's last performance, I might put some money on Gracie

Why is Dillon Danis on the main card still?

Anyone on McGregor's team gets special treatment, even outside of the UFC.

Edited my original post. The televised prelims start at 6:30 now, and Rena is going to kick off the prelims, according to Rizin's twitter. DAZN also changed the start time on their schedule.

Smh, probably gonna miss her fight then if its that early. Hopefully her opponent isn't a grappler.

Gracie Jiu-jitsu! Both of the Gracie's are winning by an arm bar

No poll?

For some reason I thought this card was on Saturday. I was going to try and find a stream, but I'll be at work and miss it tonight.

Solid card
