Thanks for sharing. Never know when Bellator's gonna be on, as they change from Thursday to Tuesday to Wednesday all the time, but I'll be home tonight and that beats most of the other options for what's on TV.robj55;1480727 wrote:There is a great Bellator card tonight, probably the best they've ever put together.

Yeah they have been moving all over the place, they need to do a better god of promotion when they are going to be on.Heretic;1480739 wrote:Thanks for sharing.

Good card tonight. Tito vs Rampage announced. Chandler is a bad ass!

Askren just completely broke Koroshev, he completely quit. Mo looked great, got back to his roots of wrestling and vicious ground and pound. Chandler and Pitbull are both beasts, really impressed. Tito and Rampage though really? Seems like Bellator is desperate for ratings and trying to get attention.

Ya and that will be pay per view so I'll pass. Glad they showed Bubba Jenkins fight, he's raw but will be a force. Askren is dominating! His wrestling cannot be stopped!

I pretty much concur. What a punch by Chandler. I'll also pass on Rampage vs Tito. Seems like a pay grab from both fighters and Bellator.
Askren is bad ass on the ground, just wish he had more punch power from there or could come up with a submission move.

Yeah they should have just done it on free tv on Spike. Askren is just so dominant in his grappling he breaks guys, would like to see some more powerful ground and pound from him.Fab1b;1481045 wrote:Ya and that will be pay per view so I'll pass.

UFC 163 tonight, not the best card but the top 2 fights are great and hoping the brazilians out on a show throughout as they are accustomed to doing on similar cards. Think Zombie vs Aldo could be a fight of the year type fight, if Zombie can survive early.

Looking forward to the last two fights. I think Aldo and Machida win their fights.

Machida got robbed IMO. I had it 2-1 Machida. Judges not kind at home.

Damn that was just starting to get really good, Zombie was tagging Aldo when he moved forward. MAchida got robbed, no way Phil won that fight.

Phil didn't land anything clean and Lyoto was hitting him with clean hard strikes and defending almost all of his takedowns. Those two takedowns that he got at the end of round 1 and round 2 with 30 seconds left apparently won him the fight. So you can get your ass handed to you on the feet for 4 and a half minutes but if you get a takedown that wins a round for you? One of the judges gave him the 3rd round as well, lol

I think Lyoto won the fight as well, but it was close. He was not dominating the stand up, but was winning it. The only real solid shot of the fight that I remember was a straight left by Machida.

Yeah it was by no means dominant, but I felt it was a clear cut victory, Phil did better than I expected but I thought he lost all three rounds, most media had it that way as also as well as fight metric.

According to fightmetrics Machida landed only 6 more significant strikes Davis had the two takedowns and passed Machidas guard once. So sometimes the numbers make it seem better.
