    Bellator tonight. Main event was supposed to be Dantas/Galvao rematch but Galvao got sick.


    Cheick Kongo vs Vinicius Queiroz
    David Rickels vs Bobby Cooper
    Chucka Willis vs Gaston Reyno
    Kendall Grove vs Francisco France
    Lena Ovchynnikova vs Rebecca Ruth

    Was a solid rebound card with Dantas/Galvao 2, but not so much without it. Probably DVR it.

    Bisping doesn't have any depth perception. No clue how he even gets cleared to fight with that gimp eye. Silva is going to look 10 years younger in there.

    Good to see Kendall still winning fights almost 10 years after winning The Ultimate fighter(as crazy as crazy as that sounds).

    I actually fell asleep during Bellator last night. I still remember being at my grandma's and watching Grove win the finale that year. Good for him.

    Albert Tumenov vs Gunnar Nelson added to Rotterdam show. Interesting styles match up but would have preferred Tumenov/Saffiedine if they were going the all Euro route...

    Joe Warren got his a--- handed to him last night. Caldwell is Bellator's version of Aljamain Sterling, great wrestling and submission game...

    "If I was fighting a man of my own weight at 145, he would have went out from those shots."

    Conor is back to pretending he's a featherweight.

    I would say Conor was a legitimate FW prior to the Mendes fight. He never looked all that drawn out for the Holloway, Brandao or Poirier fights. Think he even made 145 for the Siver fight when he was only required to get down to 146(although he did look slightly more drained then normal).

    He definitely needs to figure out the cut though, maybe lose some muscle I dunno.

    Totally agree. I just can't stand that the Conor defense league is already hiding behind a perfectly reasonable weight. It was a 155 fight without the cut. Nate had a week long camp. It was a close fight. What happened is what happened. No excuses.

    Dana confirmed the Ronda Miesha fight

    Would have preffered a Holly Ronda rematch to decide who gets to face Miesha for the title
