I didn't get to see this card but I caught a good portion of the Lena Ovchynnikova fight. God damn was she a flop.

Off the top of my head-

Anthony Pettis vs Clay Guida

Hector Lombard vs Tim Boetch

Daniel Cormier vs Frank Mir

Luke Rockhold vs Vitor Belfort
All that means is that it's possible to come back from a flop. They were all flops until they came back and made things right (except for DC, don't know why he was included in that).

Until you come back from a flop, you're a flop.

This Ukranian lady is a FLOP.

That was my point- they were never flops, they just had an off night. DC 'won' but he did it by wall n stalling- he was gassed and people were quick to call him overrated.

Until you come back from a flop, you're a flop.

This Ukranian lady is a FLOP.
So by your own admission here- not yet. She hasn't even had her second fight with Bellator yet. Calm down.

Right now she's in the flop category. She can fight her way out of it. I don't make the rules dude, that's just the way it is. FLOP. Floppity flop flop.

Just back from ankle surgery but caught up on the thread and watched the show on my phone... love how quick Bellator adds the full fights on the iOS app the next day... If you throw up the Bellator 151 thread I got some interviews I will be writing up this weekend for that one... always enjoy reading these live threads even if catching up on them the next day...

Post fight Hangover is over, I can see my screen clearly now.

I cornered Lena, Reyno, Grove, Rickels and Kongo on this show. I wrapped up Navajo, Willis and Lena.

First off, the TV opener, lena/Ruth, that was one of the most fun fights I've watched in a long time. I just genuinely had fun. One of her coaches told me afterwards that she prefers to fight at 115, and walks at 125. They feel she needs to put some size on to stay competitive.

Grove - Was so stoked for that win. With his brother dying recently, I feel that really added an emotional component, and I think it was dope that he used it as motivation and not a distraction, which is what his bro would have wanted.

Rickels brought it as always. With his shield or on it, every time. The crowd goes so wild for him there.

Overall it was a good event on my end, I expect the ratings to obviously drop from the Royce/Shamrock show, but I'd still like to peak over a million. The loss of Galvao/Dantas might have hurt us though.

It was still a lot of fun to watch homie, even with the BW title shuffle. Awesome job in there. :D

Didn't know Grove's brother passed away. Glad to see him get that W then.
