Even with the injuries happening, I am looking forward to the Bellator card tonight. Liam McGeary has been nothing but impressive during his Bellator run showing both striking and submission skills. Manny Newton despite being the underdog in most situations, finds a way to win.

King Mo vs. Kongo has the potential to be good or really bad. Plus Paul Daley is back in Bellator.

I got Rousey by KO. Cat starts off too slow, unless she changes that Honda got this.

I'm debating watching Kongo vs Mo. That has devastating KO written all over it. I think McGreary takes the belt from Newton, unless he pulls off some of his magic.

I got Mcgreary by sub. Newton has been skating by on pure luck against awful competition. He was getting beat by Beltran for Christ sake before his now patented miracle shyt. I got Daley by KO. And I got Kongo by KO also. As far as tomorrow, Ronda by TKO RD 1. Cat is just not skilled enough to beat Ronda. Having heart is good against everyone except Ronda. Cat got smashed early against Nunes and Tate. Ronda will not bullshyt if shes given the oppurtunity. If Cat had any range striking(like Holm) it would be competitive but all her damage comes from the clinch. We know shes not bullying Ronda with grappling. Holm vs Pennington is the same. Pennington is a average fighter with a lot of heart. But she is not anywhere near Holm on the feet and her grappling isn't strong enough to give her problems. I just see Holm picking her apart with her kickboxing for the UD. Ellenberger vs Kos is of course do or die for both. Ellenberger has been pure trash since the Rory fight, but even then I don't see what Kos has for him. Koscheck chin is shot and a year and a half off doesn't fix that. Ellenberger by KO RD1.
