I figured Chael/Fedor would be first up. I wonder if they're having trouble getting Fedor signed. Also Meathead is gonna straight gently caress up Bader.

Coker said after Bellator 201 they wanted both semifinals to happen close together and specifically mentioned wanting stuff in October, not ruling out events on back-to-back nights. I don't think that last part is gonna happen necessarily, but they are experimenting with that format (see 202 and 203 happening on the 13th and 14th)

if Ryan Bader is a light heavyweight what is he doing in the heavyweight grand prix? Were they short on actual heavyweights that people wanted to watch fight?

Lol, you know middleweight GOAT Chael P Sonnen is in the tournament, right? And yes. How many Bellator heavyweights can anyone name? Besides the ones from UFC. Gotta make that Grand Prix shine.

Heavyweights are more of a draw Look to the best thread this subforum's ever made, the goldmined history of the UFC trashweight division champion thread, if you need more proof of that

Openweight won't get sanctioned in the USA, but everyone that would fight in openweight anyways already weighs above 206 without trouble so there's no need to call it that. For those that missed it, the opening round featured Chael Sonnen decisively outboxing and outwrestling a 265lbs Rampage Jackson for 15 minutes, Frank Mir getting murked by Fedor, Matt Mitrione in a shockingly (not really) boring fight with Roy Nelson, and Ryan Bader sparked king mo out the gate. The remaining fights are Sonnen/Fedor and Mitrione/Bader.

IIRC they hurt each other but Matt recovered faster and finished the job. Maybe Mitrione could revive his signature: dive into a choke and tap like a madman.

I completely forgot Meathead already smashed Fedor once before. Not like it's gonna matter. Chael is gonna beat him, too.FishBowlRobot posted:Didn’t Mitrione get wobbled by Fedor?

They hit each other at the same time, but I think Mitrione is more of a slip where Fedor was extremely rocked.
