Yea the main event was quite a let down, but the third round was kinda exciting.

I was really hoping Bisping got his a$$ kicked again...another let down

Brilz got royally screwed, couldnt believe Lil Nog got the decision

Diego got whooped, great fight for John Hathoway

Melvin Guillard had a great knee to the body to finish Lowe

That was a terrible decision. That kid fought a great fight on short notice against a competitor he admitted was far superior to any one he had ever faught.


The 3rd round of the main event was a decent end to an otherwise awful fight. Failed takedown attempts and no landed shots, just a lot of leaning on each other.

I'm getting caught up on the bellator's that happened the past month and I noticed alot of Sengoku fighters signed with them this season. Its easy to say Eddie Alvarez and Dan Hornbuckle are among the best in the world at the respective weight class. Eddie Alvarez a known brawler has five straight submission victories since his loss to Shinya Aoki. Also did anybody see Aleksander Emelianenko's last 2 fights?

Paulo Filho won by TKO in the 1st round last night against heavyweight daniel gabriel in Brazil .

just watched some good fights from strikeforce los angeles, I like watching that special forces sniper they have at middleweight. Anybody know what channel bellator is on tomorrow night? Dan Hornbuckle is in the main event.

Hey guys some russian guy got triangled and arm barred at the same time, anybody see it?

Looked like some rookie mistake to me, I think the guy has potential though.


Straight up was shocked, especially when it looked like he escaped the first time. Big hit to his mark of invincibility, I could only imagine what the look on Dana's face was.

funny, the guy that couldn't make a deal with the ufc, and lost to arlovski and dos santos in the ufc just beat the so called "best fighter in the world"

Hey pal, anytime your got a BJJ blackbelt and a Abu Dahbi caliber grappler at that, they have the tools to beat anybody. Dos Santos is the next UFC heavyweight champ as soon as they give him the title shot.

I'm glad I'm not alone on the Dos Santos train.

And goalie you can't refer to Fedor as the "so-called" best fighter in the world until you can name me another fighter with a thirty fight win streak.

That's like saying brittney spears or ke$ha are the best singers because they're so talented.

Look at a lot of fedors last wins..brett rogers..andrei arlovski...tim sylvia...matt lindland...mark coleman...crocop... he fought a few really good fighters and won, but most of his wins have been over cans. Sorry, but i've always said and maintain, fedor is overrated.

So which Champion or top MMA person, is not overrated in your opinion?

[ActionAndy]

FIREBALL KID!

[goalie204]

hey pal...ok?

[goalie204]

From a post, which i kind of agree with:

Ricardo Arona by decision--->fedor was on top of him most of the match. He won the decision because Fedor was on top of him..SHOULDA been a DRAW!!


Renato BABALU Sobral by decision----->again, fedor was on top of babalu, that is how he won the decision.

Heath Herring by Cut--->a win on a cut really doesn't count as a real MMA win.

Antonio Rodgrigo Nogueira by decision--->all fedor did was stay on top of nog and kill the clock.

Kazayuki Fujita by choke---->I gotta admit that fedor won this match fair and square. However, Fujita isn't a top 10 heavyweight at the time.

mark coleman by armbar--->im pretty sure, defeating a 41 year old man counts....

Antonio Rodgrigo Nogueaira 2 by decision--->fedor won because he stayed on top of NOG. Nog and fedor's standup game were similar.

Mirko Filipinovic By decision--->Fedor knows he cannot outstrike Mirko (at the time) , so he had to tackle him to the ground and Kill some clock. The refs like MMA fighters that stay on top, therefore fedor won.


Summary?!!

Fedor has beaten the top MMA fighters in Pride; however, he won through DECISION.

The only MMA fighters that wasn't cans that he defeated was-->a 41 year old mark coleman, kevin randleman, a non top 10 heavyweight kazayuki Fujita, and a 41 year old don fry.

EVERY other NON can MMA match, fedor WOn through decision.

Fedor--->overrated. He wins against top heavyweights through decision.. WHILE he Beat up on CANS, claiming he is the best.

Fedor is overrated. NUFF SAID.... Fedor is a DECISION fighter.

[Starscream]

Any word on Batista signing with Strikeforce yet?

[goalie204]

i never said he wasn't a real champ, so don't put words in my mouth, i just said fedor is overrated, and sylvia was pretty much always a can

This is a dead horse I'm really sick of hearing about it but I laughed when you called Fedor a decision fighter. Thats the 1st time I heard that, he has 1 decision win in the last 5 years. Most fighters don't even last 5 years in the buisness. Fedor has a worldwide reputation to go for the kill. He willingly risk himself to finish people and doesn't hesitate to jump in a world class bjj guard. Andrson the punk Silva would have run away and danced around the ring like he did against Maia. Silva and Chael Sonnen are decision fighters.

[goalie204]

If you'd have actually read the first thing i said in that post, it said "from a post" meaning it was a copy/paste from another place. I never said any of those things, just that i agreed with some of it.
