I just find dude...mad plain, his whole style is vanilla I dont get hyped for a weidman fight...

and dude gots TWO wins on silva, and Im still not sold on said wins


am I hating brehs?

Not only that but look at the ages of the dudes he's facing.

Machida was 36 at the time of their fight
Silva was 37
Belfort is 37.

He's "beaten"/fighting dudes way past their prime. He's gotta face Rockhold next.

How does rockhold deserve a shot ahead of jacare?

How does rockhold deserve a shot ahead of jacare?

cuz he's got the best shot and is the right age. Personally I think age coupled with win streak is why jacare should get it.





Great weekend of fights, like I alluded when the fight was announced hunt's renaissance was great but him winning would've made the sport a laughing stock. I almost choked when wedrum when down in the 1st then by the end was
like very long overdue felt like this should've happened the night he beat fedor. As for ellenberger Jessica eye? there is just something about her that's so likeable, interviews, presence, fight style just sense she's going to be feasted on by grapplers.

As for bellator solid night, weird end to the real main event seems like Chandler might need to get that looked at. As for brooks he's the truth no more excuses and thank God the ghost of that alvarez/Chandler saga is officially dead. Coker needs to show some tegrity and cut manhoef it's not fun anymore that guy us going to have serious cognitive neurological problems in his 40s. As for mo same old ugly ass style. tito/bonnar? thought it was solid but it seemed bonnar used up all his energy to promote, dude gassed real early. Always a dirty feeling seeing scum like tito prevail but it's best moving forward. In closing I will say Coker can only do so much to spice things but one of the things that will always hold bellator back is spike. Showtime made strikeforce look good and it felt big-time I don't see anything that spike have poured into bellators production

Chandler landed face first on that trip takedown then hit with an immediate right hook, he thought he was sparring again at his gym with the But seriously dude needs to get his head scanned, never seen a fighter quit and not protect himself

Few things wrong with your statement

1) In what way would someone like Hunt winning the belt be an embarrassment? Its not like the HW division has historically had talent laced, technically skilled fighters. Hunt has wins over Nelson, Big foot, etc. If he got into the sport early he would be a champ

2) Bellator productions looks fine and ten times better under Coker. Bellator used to look drab, dreary, and overall shyt.

Melvin manhoef got knocked by a guy that was 1-3?

Schilling is a very good kickboxer.

You don't know Schilling fam. Dude is an absolute elite kickboxer and I was pretty sure he'd beat manhoef

Nah I don't After actually watching the match I was impressed though I'll youtube the guy.






Still wasn't as good as the -weight championship main event

to my man Dave Branch for the TKO last night...he's a real good BK dude and has his only loss in years was a 5 round decision to Anthony Johnson where Rumble missed weight by 10 lbs...he's a thorough dude who talks about having to put work in the streets

Man, Michael Chandler may be on the outs after being pushed as the face of the "old Bellator" he has silently lost 3 in a row and simply looks a bit limited when he doesn't control the fight from the earlier onset.

 

[el_conejo_blanco]

They basically have a lot of marquee matches to make with the combination of rampage, mo, tito, bonnar, bobby lashley...Scott Coker knows the recipe
