They are really giving Jones another title shot as soon as DC is ready! This right here will truly determine who is the 3rd best in the division. Gus should get the loser of this fight.

I've been waiting for this.

Bader is gonna get tenderized worse than when he hit Machida's wall :yayuhh:

I know damn well bader ain't taking rumble down, if phil davis can't.
However rumble needs to make it quick. Bader will still be shooting in r5 but rumble will be doing a houston alexander/kimbo by round 3.

I bet bob sapp had better cardio in his prime/better days career

I think the only way Bader gets a shot is if he brutally finishes Rumble. Like a headkick KO or a neck crank like Maia vs Story. Or at least put on a hell of a scrap like hunto vs christmas island face / hendo vs shogun.

that free promo with jones and dc beefing.. dana white about to line his pockets like a bihhh

Nah he doesn't have to destroy rumble he just needs a win. The photoshop DC did Jones is gonna give hell for that

Stop it. His cardio is not that bad. He went the distance with Davis/AA and didn't look that fatigue. I'm shocked Bader took this matchup. UFC doing every thing to knock him out of contention

No I don't believe they are. It's literally the most logical option since Jones is back.

I agree. Who else was Rumble going to fight? He already beat Gus, Bader couldn't just sit around for perhaps 9 months if not longer.

 

[Another Man]

Bader's gonna get fukked up

Yeah, if he can't get Rumble down this fight won't see round 2.

Bellator has a card tonight, and its really solid. 2 title fights in 2 of the their best divisions LW and FW
Bellator 145: Vengeance | MMAjunkie

Kinda emblematic of the promotion as a whole as it hasn't gotten much attention, and the whole Will Brooks getting attacked by the Pitbull Bros story hasn't been that big of a deal.

 

[The ADD]

Have I missed a major card or PPV? Seems like forever since a UFC fight

 

[Medulla Oblongata]

I'm not saying he's gonna win, but a lot of people are overlooking Bader.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

The master of human movement.
