Wonder if other forums talking about this card tonight? It's been pretty good so far IMO. First women's fight stunk, Romero cotton gassed and that fight wasn't great. But the Storley fight, and the last fight were great.
missed the womens fights. who fought and won? how did cotton look?

Is it bad if I've like every song they've played lol
Almost broke my neck body surfing in a papa roach pit
I'm not going to lie, I actually liked one song earlier. Only for nostalgic purposes of course. Mosh on.

Two chics I dont know their names but the results are on Page 2. Cotton and his opponent gassed pretty hard because there was so much grappling in the fight. Cotton looked green on his feet as expected and although he got a lot of takedowns, he wasnt able to do much with any of them. Just controlled top position mostly.

I honestly love it that Bellator is corny with shit like the music. It just reminds me of the way MMA used to be, which is what I think they're going for.

The guy who lost might have the worst fight iq I've ever seen
He has to know he needs a finish in the 3rd and instead of throwing, he covers up and backs into the cage?
Wtf

I definitely enjoy the product they've been putting out. Hats off to, Coker for turning that whole thing around.

Don't like how much lovato drops his head to the right when he throws the left hand

Great finish for him but if any notes on stand-up, that s what I caught

dam. shit was cake as soon as lovato got it to the ground. solid sub.

that said though. way too robotic standing. he was throwing funky kicks.. overall standup isnt fluid at all. i could see him running into trouble against solid strikers like kato, carvalho, mousasi.

At this point hed get crushed by moose
Thought a couple of those kicks were really nice
Obviously not as fluid as a natural striker, but a hell of a lot better than I've seen other bjj specialists

Absolutely. I though he lost the initial td, but the way he locked the leg up was sick. As soon as he took the back it was over. Expected nothing less from him on the mat. Could see him getting caught standing though
