twiztor Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 so, i don't follow Bellator. i think the last event i watched was their PPV. i did catch the Shamrock/Kimbo fight tho. anyway, out of morbid curiosity, i looked them up on wiki to see who their champs were (i was surprised that the Newton fight wasn't listed as a title bout). Anyway, what's up with their heavyweight title? their champ hasn't fought for them in almost 2 years but fights on random Russian cards? is he still under contract? what's the deal? will watch this for Shamrock/Gracie III because i'm a glutton for punishment. anybody on the prelims worth checking out?

Unless you love stories about pygmies, there is no one on the undercard of note. Just mostly all regional guys and Justin Wren. Yeah, Minakov is under Bellator contract. Anyway, I think Minakov is *suppose* to be working out a deal with them to come back but who knows what that means. Those Fight Night cards are on Fight Pass now so he has been on more UFC sponsored broadcasts than Bellator ones. I think the problem is that Minakov is one of their least priorities. He is their HW champ and like the sixth or seventh most known HW they have by virtue of not being there for two years and being the champ of their most garbage division. There is no way in the world that he fights people like Shamrock or Kimbo. So basically what's the point? It would be easier for them to just vacate the belt so Lashley can win it. That way you at least have an excuse to main event shows with Bobby Lashley instead of him being third from the top. Otherwise, it's just dudes like Lashley, Sergei, and Mitrione (if he chooses to sign with Bellator) having random fights along with the freakshow element.

Hail Sabin Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Looking forward to this weekend with all 3 promotions running shows one after the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edwin Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Ah yes, Justin Wren. His story is the only thing to really care for on the prelims. I like freakshow fights, so there's a very good chance I'll catch the top 2 fights at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitlick Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Happy Wren has another fight seems like a good person. The main card though.... This could be some terribly quick show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 If you want to know what you can realistically expect from Dhafir "DADA 5000" Harris, I highly suggest you wade through Jeremy Botter's Twitter timeline right now. You won't be disappointed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 MMA just got set back 50 years with that fight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 The only thing missing from this was both of them puking and their shorts down to their ankles. I am convinced that the last minute of the 2nd round was them trying to set up a spot so they can just lay on the ground and rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 MMA just got set back 50 years with that fight. Embarrassing as hell but lets be honest this is exactly what Bellator wants. People will be talking for this disaster for years and years and that is all that matter If you think this is the last we will see of Kimbo in Bellator you are naive as hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
