Do we need a thread for loving FEDOR/MIR? That has the potential to be the funniest card of the year.

Kayla Harrison (Gold medal in Judo at London 2012 and Rio 2016) is making her MMA debut with PFL on June 21. She competed at 78kg (172lbs) in Judo, and is expected to compete at 145lbs in MMA. Pretty rough weight cut, but I guess if she wants an opponent it's the weight to be.

Nahh, I think this thread will do for the people that will watch it. I assume it's going live-to-tape and then will be spoiled for everyone the second the fight happens before anyone in the US can actually watch it.

Which, by the way, there is no legitimate way of watching this fight in Australia, even if I wanted to pay them money I couldn't.

After having seen a roidgolem vs a grandma, a literal child knock out an adult, literal children in Chenchnya fighting and KOing each other, "team" MMA in i'm assuming the Ukraine, fights involving using hand mounted tasers, and Jason Miller - the idea of Chael fighting a large man is quaint

I lost $50 on that fight and I will never forgive Chael over it. I don't even think that dude trains anymore. His technique is Sapp-like.

While I don't think fat Rampage has ever been better than MMMSRE, Chael absolutely has been busting his rear end getting ready for these fights. I'm still shocked that fight turned out the way it did. No one expected Chael to dance around and box up Rampage.

And heavyweight Rampage is no less horsed up and no less fat than Bellator Mir.

Sonnen, with a good dose of EPO in him, might actually be able to fight to survive a rough round 1 and then outwork a witness-the-fitness Mir in rounds 2 and 3 for a hilarious long shot upset 29-28 decision victory. Considering that would almost necessarily follow Mir doing something that makes Fedor look ridicuous, that bracket would be the best of all possible worlds.

Unfortunately I can't see any path to victory for Sonnen against Bader or Mitrione.

Mir is also an actual heavyweight. Mir and Fedor both should absolutely ragdoll Chael and it shouldn't be close. Even still, I'm looking forward to the freakshow and we'll either end up with a tired fat guy getting boxed up again that will be baffling and hilarious, or we'll most likely see Chael just get destroyed. Either way it sounds fun and exciting and I struggle to find a way that it won't be entertaining.

stop the fucking fight, cornerman, your dude is fucking done and is about to be killed.
If chael wins it will throw in to sharp relief just how insanely lovely and bad Bellator is causing the company to fold after investors withdraw in disgust forcing Rory back into the UFC to save us from that guy that refuses to fight but won't go away (woodley, not caraway).

If Chael Vs Fedor happens then the promotion for the fight will hinge on Fedor's fight with fellow goon Matt Lindland

Fedor is bad enough to sling hays at Chael and get dumped on his rear end, but yeah if he grabs hold then Chael is going for a ride.

Mir would murder Chael.

Chael could almost certainly get in on Mir and Fedor to take them down, but given Chael's historic weakness with sub defense from the top even aging demonstrably-worse-at-fighting-than-Kyle-Kingsbu-Kingsbury Fedor can probably still armbar him from the bottom and Mir can do whatever he wants, really.

oh my god please

anyway both mir and fedor are capable of submitting chael from the bottom (though i think mir would be more likely to hump chael against the fence like he did cro cop) so even if chael is, despite the size difference, able to dictate where things happen he will still always be close to death.
