As much as I drink, getting it off by only one day is pretty impressive.

You should have seen me fucking up all my dates when we changed from thursdays to the current format of Mostly fridays, sometimes saturdays and filmed on thursdays but shown friday and fuck it, lets do a wednesday show (which fell through).
Lol, so will the Italy card, be good enough to compete with 206? I'm just curious bc, they might take a huge hit on that event..

I wish they spill the beans already too. I'm dying to know who else will be fighting on the isreal card as well as the benson v. Chandler card.

I was just saying that Ireland needs a bigger footprint in MMA...

How much the sport has grown over here the past 2 years is crazy, this will only help it's cause.

Bellator is supposed to go to Argentina by the end of this year too, if im not mistaken. There going to have a busy December if this is true. I hope they bring the heat when they close out the year. These upcoming cards look really good, but I wonder how well the December cards are going to be considering they are competing against UFC 206 when they are going to Italy, and they have Sakara vs Beltran headlining the event. That isn't good, if thats the best fight if they have on the mma portion of the event. I've been pretty underwhelmed with Bellator lately, and hope there next events deliver.

Some of it isn't their fault, some of it is, but at the same time I want to see better fights from bellator. Some of their fights make zero sense, like Goiti vs Couture or Jenkins vs Georgi. Anyways, should be interesting to see what they do with these international events. Looking forward to it but dont want to get my hopes up. I seem to keep doing that, and continue to get let down. Anyways here's to Bellator closing out the year with a Bang!

Really looking forward to King mo fighting in the HW tourney, and Chidi facing a top striker.
Argentina has a huge mma following

There, someone else said it, so I can say it now.

Some of you were so close about dates and Dublin, and one even mentioned Bamma as having a show on the 16th, which I marked "winner" in the hopes that someone would pick up on it.

Bellator and BAMMA to collaborate for event in Dublin this December
This doesn't surprise me as, Bellator worked with Mick Maynard, and used the Legacy FC fighters for the prelims for the Kimbo vs Dada show. This is good news I really hope Bellator capitalizes on this event, and uses the best fighters that BAMMA has at their disposal.

Yeah, I saw this. I think girtz should take it. I wonder if they will add another fight, bellator usually has 5 fight main cards on Saturdays. I thought Fihlo would be on this show for sure.
Probably Josh Thomson vs anyone
