Are Bellator picks up yet? I got Fedor, Chael, Lima, Davis.

Yes this is a combo card so the Bellator fights are at bottom since they are highest level.

I got fedor,chael,larkin,Chandler ,and  Pico for the ppv.

For bellator 180 i got Davis,Gallagher,Gracie,&couture also picking heather hardy to win.

Oh, I see. I missed that first time looking.

I got Chandler too (forgot to mention that one). Can't wait for this card.

Top prospect Aaron Pico is making his debut at this show. He is one to watch out for. Sherdog did a good article on him.

Yeah facing freeman is a real test first fight but pico is no amateur.

Pico is an excellent boxer,pancration fighter,and wrestler i think Pico will shine.

SUPER HYPED FOR THIS PPV AND BELLATOR 180

I was surprised they gave him such a tough fight to start, former RFA champ.

I am hyped as well. One of the better PPVs in the US with PRIDE, Affliction, SF Fedor vs. Hendo, and this.

If Fedor wins, would still be interested in seeing Fedor vs. Couture.

It would be but Randy's retired indefinitely though it should've happen 10 years ago you can blame Dana and the ufc for that .

^^ even though they like to twist things people who don't have the tinted Glasses on know the truth

Chael said Randy was the backup if Wand pulled out of the fight. That's why I think Fedor/Randy is possible. It should have happened years ago though, I agree, but I am still interested.

I did hear chael say and yes a Randy vs Fedor match would still sell personally it should of happened ten years ago
The number one vs number two hell Randy was ready and willing to go to affliction ufc put a stop to that I say the threec real reasons are
1 they would have to spilt monies with affliction
2 Randy loosing Fedor would've won that was around the time they started doing their ufc=elite everyone else=the b leagues
3 other fighters,champions would say if he can do it I can do it .

Interview with Bellator Lightweight Brent Primus. Brent fights Michael Chandler for the Lightweight title this Saturday night at Bellator NYC. Listen and enjoy!

That's right. They did everything they could to keep that fight from happening. It is one of the big fights of all time that never happened but should have happened years ago.

Nice. Thanks for posting.

Heather Hardy debut will be fun,i think with a dominant win she could fight melendez in what woukd be a very good striker vs striker fight.

Chinzo vs strab animal will be fun man im pretty excited for that one,with a win i'd like to see strab animal vs aaron pico vs freeman winner.

I'm looking forward to that Chinzo fight also. I like the idea of pitting the winners of these fights against each other.

I get nervous when Fedor fights these days. I want him to win but I know he's passed his prime and I know the jackals won't care and say how overrated he is if he loses.

I get nervous too for Fedor fights. Always have but he usually pulls through. I am taking Fedor to beat Mitrione.

They call him "overrated" even when he wins so tommorow won't be any different .I'm expecting the usual BS.

Very true.

Just about 4 hours until the prelims start.

It's great hearing Goldie in Bellator

Hard to watch Fedor get stopped like that. He should retire. Age has caught up to him. He is still GOAT but his prime has past.

That was hard to watch Fedor is the goat but Father time is undefeated .another 4 things 1 Fedor would've won in his prime 2 the fuck wits are having a Field day 3 please please mma gods let wanderlei win the main event ,because its going to be bad enough them talking about 1 pride fc fighter

Glad I didn't watch. I feared this would happen. I love Fedor but 40 years old, 42 MMA fights, years of doing judo and combat sambo, and a combined 14 years of fighting have finally taking their toll. Makes me sick how assholes will talk about how overrated he is. All because he never fought in their holy octagon.
