Someone really **** up either at bellator or the commision that cleared the fight.. my thoughts I posted on another forum:
I have a couple serious problems with this fight in hindsight which reflect bellator in a really bad light and not because of the quality of the fight. I'm absolutely amazed that dada's heart stopped in the ambulance! that's nuts... apparently it was due to extremely elevated pottasium levels from a big 40 lb weight cut to make 265, which then caused the dehydration and exhaustion..Hope he makes a full recovery as I respect him a lot for what he does in his community. Bellator knew of the weight cut he made, they knew about his skill level, and they should be aware of his physical health leading up to the fight, yet somehow this fight still got sanctioned. in hindsight, for me as a fan I'm flabbergasted this was allowed to take place without some credible medical evaluation to give him the all clear to fight after that cut, If they were cleared this points out a huge problem in mma. This is a very poignant event in recent times with all the talk about the dangers of weight cutting in the sport. AND to have a complete amateur (in terms of pro fights) make a cut like that when he may never of had to cut weight before, with the promotion knowing the dangers, in a co main event! with all the extra pressure with the rivalry is at the least shear incompetence by bellator and at the worst borderline criminal. It was a terrible fight, I also found it hilarious while watching though, and was entertained throughout, and it obviously shouldn't of been featured on a major mma card like this, or at least not the main few fights. But I have no problem with them fighting each other if they both want too. BUT despite how bad they both were that must of been hell for both fighters, so much **** talk leading up to it and the exhaustion must of been multiplied due to it. for kimbo that must of been exacerbated by his knees, he looked like he could barely support his weight in the clinch at times, and I don't think it was mainly due to gassing. you got to respect both guys heart regardless of their skills. |

well that was entertaining hahaha, Jon Jones completely owned Cormier, Cruz owned faber, rockhold-weidman I give a draw, Joanna champion looked fired up as hell, then cluadia lashed out at her hah. Poor mighty mouse he didn't even get 1 question asked to him the entire conference lol, even cejudo got asked 1  |
|
By:
Just watched this Razz,yes was very entertaining.
I was reading that Joanna and Claudia were at each other all the way through filming the new TUF series then had a full blown fight at the end in private. Claudia is hot tho dressed very sexy. |

Anderson wants a quick turnaround, not sure who he'll fight, mousassi challenged him in the second link but I think this would be career suicide for silva atm, If bisping knocked him down and nearly finished him gegard sure as hell can, especially as gegard employs a more grappling based gameplan in his recent fights, and the tentativeness on silva's part vs bisping was down to his cardio issues aka age. mousassi is a better striker better grappler and is a lot younger than bisping. I'd be very surprised if andy accepted this fight.

and in other news, Jon Jones gets 5 tickets lol, and cyborg finally gets a fight in the ufc! wonder who will want to fight her after she wrecks smith.. http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Cristiane-Cyborg-Justino-Set-for-Octagon-Debut-Against-Leslie-Smith-at-UFC-198-102503
anderson ended up getting uriah hall as his next opponent, risky move imo, hall can ko a mule if he's on point, but can be very flaky when not. |

gotta say conor's an idiot if he takes this rematch at 170. how does he think he can not gas against diaz on a full camp??
|
|
By:
I really don't understand the rematch. What does it actually achieve for Conor if he wins apart from helping his ego a little more ? It's a no brainer for Diaz to take the fight as he will get paid a lot more to fight Conor than anyone else he could choose.
Strange decision and makes a mockery of the sport when Aldo and Mendes fight for (yet another) Interim title. Soon, every weight class will have a Champion and an Interim Champion. |
|
By:
because it's the fight that makes conor the most money in UFC and that is all he is motivated by now.

UFC vegas looks pretty good to be on the underdogs. I actually like Stephens to KO Barao and it can be backed at 3/1.
|
|
By:
I had stephens by ko too, was a good prop to hit, considering barao's last few fights, had jeremy's moneyline too. barao looked better than i expected tbh but his fight IQ et him down with all those spammed takedown attempts, and gassed himself out against the bigger guy. I can't see barao ever being in title contention again tbh.
I think diaz/mcgregor is targeted for august atm, but that could change at any second hah, conor's being a lot smarter with who he is training with now and has a full time nutritionist that could improve his cardio at a higher weight. will be interesting to see if it's enough but I expect it won't be. |
|
By:
yah barao is done at that weight for sure, if he drops down maybe he can be good again.
I really think McGregor doesn't want to fight Diaz again. he got his soul choked that day and I don't think he wants to become a ghost again for the night. McG will end up dropping down and fighting some other guys - plenty of fights out there. He's basically dodging Diaz now, that's why he pulled out of that Press conference. |

Main event
155 lbs.: Dustin Poirier vs. Michael Johnson Co-Main Event: 185 lbs.: Uriah Hall vs. Derek Brunson Main Card (10 p.m. ET): 155 lbs.: Evan Dunham vs. Rick Glenn 135 lbs.: Albert Morales vs. Alejandro Perez 170 lbs.: Roan Carneiro vs. Kenny Robertson 155 lbs.: Chris Wade vs. Islam Makhachev "Prelims" (8 p.m. ET): 145 lbs.: Gabriel Benitez vs. Sam Sicilia 170 lbs.: Augusto Montano vs. Belal Muhammad 135 lbs.: Joey Gomez vs. Jose Quinonez UFC Fight Pass "Prelims" (7 p.m. ET): 170 lbs.: Randy Brown vs. Erick Montano 145 lbs.: Maximo Blanco vs. Chas Skelly pretty low key card compared to what we're used to lately. I think this could bee a card with lots of good fights. gotta favor poirier here, he's on such a impressive run since he moved up to LW after the conor loss. KO'ing 3 of his last 4 opponents in the first round and besting "irish" joe duffy in one of the best fights of the year, where both guys had there moments but poirier's grappling was too strong for duffy in the end. while johnson on the other hand share a common similarity with dustin in that he used to be on a few ppl's radar pegged as a possible future title challenger. the thing that makes me want to fade MJ is mainly his fight IQ and flakiness in big fights. look at how he faired vs diaz who completely got into MJ's head during the fight and took him out of a fight he shouldn't of been emotionally invested in. he was following the gameplan of leg kicks well early in the fight then got clowned. he's also been subbed a few times earlier in his career, and looking at the type of fighter MJ loses too (sass,madadi,jury,diaz,brookins,dariush) poirier is in my book above all of them by a long way with the exception of diaz. poirier's chin and MJ's speed and good boxing is stopping me from putting more on dustin, so may play his ko prop to hedge. |

wow, did not see that one coming! great win for MJ, there's the guy that looked like he could be champ a few years back. impressed as hell there, I was thinking poirier is kinda stuck in no mans land, doesnt have the wrestling to take it to the floor while having a big speed disadvantage on the feet and being chinny >< didn't get a single bet on for the last 2 fights.
I hit makhachev/benitez/carlos jr live bets though so decent enough night for me. |
