lol Calvillos face after her premature celebration was worth it

Khabib

by **zach york** » Sun Dec 31, 2017 12:58 am

Yeah impressive. Not really a fan of his entitled attitude and him overall but he's a killer.

by **Brouhaha** » Sun Dec 31, 2017 1:08 am

Had a small bet on khabib finishing him, props to edson for hangin in there

30-24 was a bit harsh though

by **Brouhaha** » Sun Dec 31, 2017 1:18 am

Bar I'm at is going nuts for Holm, they've been pretty quiet til now

I'm so fucked if somehow this fight goes distance

by **zach york** » Sun Dec 31, 2017 1:49 am

holly would benefit if she didn't yell before striking

HERE I COME!!!

by **Brouhaha** » Sun Dec 31, 2017 2:00 am

Lol I'm broke now

Holm did so much better than I thought she would, can't believe how strong she is, Cris probably had a good 20-25lbs on her and still couldn't take her down

Nunes don't want none of that

by **Brouhaha** » Tue Jan 09, 2018 8:39 pm

that's a bummer

refs get paid like less than 2k per show so I'm happy for him and look forward to hearing him call some fights. but he was the ref I felt most comfortable with in big fights

by **Brouhaha** » Tue Jan 09, 2018 8:45 pm

Nunes says she still wants the Cyborg fight and Dana is all for it but Cyborg would rather fight a legit 145er.

Whit got injured, so Yoel is fighting Rockhold for an interim. Bummer it being in his hometown and all

that div is cursed

Already a weak card before it. I don't say this often but they should downgrade to TV or cancel- it's going to do ~100k, tops

by **zach york** » Sat Jan 13, 2018 1:56 pm

Urijah Hall vs Belfort scratched from tomorrow's card. Hall couldn't weigh in.

Michael Johnson having a tough go recently. He's now lost 5 of his last 6 and been finished 3 straight times.

vitor-bisping in london probably will happen, both their final fight

and ufc in russia is a reality, rumored for sept

by **Brouhaha** » Tue Jan 16, 2018 5:23 pm

why did bellator schedule a saturday night event(usually fridays)? they have an alright card but going against 220 will get them pretty low viewership

by **Brouhaha** » Tue Jan 16, 2018 5:33 pm

fair enough

“I think if you look at our past history, we have traditionally done I want to say 80 percent of our shows on Friday night and we’re happy to do shows on Friday night, it’s just that we have a business to run, they have a business to run and this is a fight that just happens to conflict,” Coker said. “We didn’t know when we booked the date that they had a pay-per-view date. We just said, ‘Hey, this is the date that’s only available that’s open for Paramount and it’s the launch of the network, it has to be on this weekend, and the venue was available and the venue happens to be in California, which we’re not going to go on a Friday night in California, which would be a terrible mistake (due to traffic).

bellator card is arguably deeper than ufc 220...but i'm not gonna miss ngannou vs stipe or cormier vs volkan.

by **Brouhaha** » Wed Jan 17, 2018 4:30 am

yeah not sure yet if I wanna bother with 220 as both those fights might be instagram short

by **Brouhaha** » Wed Jan 17, 2018 2:16 pm

I want Ferguson to beat Khabib so he can fight Conor in Russia :lol:

and Bisping turned down the Vitor fight

edit - JJ-Rose possibly at 223

Francis Ngannou (-175) vs. Stipe Miocic (+165)
He's the champ for a reason. Ngannou hasn't fought anybody on this level. Stipe won't stand there and let himself get knocked out.

Daniel Cormier (-290) vs. Volkan Oezdemir (+260)
Puncher's chance and Cormier is 38 years old. Maybe a weird short hook catches him in a clinch.

Shane Burgos (-125) vs. Calvin Kattar (+105)
Staying away from this but looking forward to the fight.

Gian Villante (-170) vs. Francimar Barroso (+150)
Villante hasn't seen a punch he didn't mind taking on the chin. Not looking forward to this fight much.

Thomas Almeida (-120) vs. Rob Font (EVEN)
Almeida is better than Font. Should be a good contest though.

DC on weight. Dude's a pro. Really is remarkable that he's never missed despite obviously having a bad cut.

by **Brouhaha** » Fri Jan 19, 2018 4:22 pm

Hoping DC finishes him in the first then points to his imaginary wristwatch

by **j-ol** » Fri Jan 19, 2018 7:47 pm

took a while for me to realize, being that i appreciate him as a fighter, but stipe miocic has a repellant personality and i hope he loses big time.

Does he? He's always seemed like an OK dude to me?

Maybe it's the volunteer fire fighter thing masking something else though...
