Did I just watch a Bellator and return to zero comments? Four first round knockouts happened.

Seems about right.

Not sure about others, but I didn't care to watch it "live" since it happened on Thursday and was tape delayed and I already knew the results. I might catch it tomorrow before UFC starts, dunno

Don't pretend you have a life on Fridays. We all know none of us do.

Also moving across the country has me hosed up on noticing when something is or isn't tape delayed.

Anyways, five fights, four first round finishes. Also a 44 year old man kills a 20 year old.

IMO betting the field makes way less sense on this tournament than the Strikeforce one because this isn't a real tournament with locked down dates, they can just postpone fights to whenever unless it's too late or Fedor does his party trick and renegotiates his contract in between fights constantly

Does anyone who follows the B leagues better than me know if Kimbo's son is worth a toot?

His Bellator fight recently was about a minute long.

As far as I recall, he's basically fought cans/sons of cans (who are also cans)

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

i honestly think 2.5 replacements is low so i would take that over, although now that i think about it 2.5 pops for PEDs is high because Bellator is going to make Fedor fight in North Dakota

edit: also 2 years is too low now that i've done research, fedor hasnt found more than once a year since like 2011

under for PEDs, no one's popping for this because that would require testing

over for time elapsed, there won't be a Bellator HW champ before the next US general election.

Either Coker is a deeply disturbed individual or a comedic genius.

That bracket is hahah, holy gently caress.

Assuming this all goes to plan, which pffft

You got Chael/Rampage which is gonna suck. Rampage doesn't sleep him in the first 30, Chael will sit on him for 25. yay.

Mir/Fedor will not happen but if it does, it has the potential to be a staring contest

Mitrone/Nelson should be crazy violent

Bader/Lawal is Coker taunting us with the possibility of a Bader/Sonnen final. That's loving cruel.

Rampage got ankle picked by glover, too. Chael is gonna come out fast, throw one punch, and then shoot a double. If he gets Rampage down, this will be hilarious. There's just as good a chance, though, that Rampage will sprawl through the first takedown, end up on top, and just punch Chael out like every guy bigger than him has done for years now.

Rampage but with an extra 50lbs to play with vs Chael Sonnen is probably going to be just as bad in reality as it is on paper
