Japanese game shows are bizarre and sometimes feature a lot of impossible obstacles. Spike TV used to edit one of those shows and present it as Most Extreme Elimination Challenge or MXC. They just had a half dozen people record voice overs and edited hours of the show down to 22 minute episodes. It was always a good laugh when it was on.

I think the Japanese show was Takeshi's Castle or something like that.

Yep, Takeshi's Castle, brought to us by Beat Takeshi of Battle Royale and tons of awesome Japanese gangster movies.

Looking back over his fights, I think it was pretty gradual. He avenged his loss to Overeem and then came out pretty lackluster against Jimmy Ambriz.
The first time I remember him looking fat was against Monson, where he just got muscled on the ground.
He looked liked a world beater against Arlovski, but got handled on the ground again by Barnett. Washing out of Strikeforce is when I wrote him off as a contender.

Sergei was never fast, so the extra weight emphasized his decreased speed, which I guess made it easy to call him fat.

I don't remember Sergei ever looking terrible in any of his kickboxing matches, with the exception of his leg kick death at the hands of Ghita.
I can't find Duncan's "innovative ways to cool your dog" edit of that fight, incidentally.

Thanks. Well, that's sad.

Based upon Gabi's piss poor striking in the few matches of hers I've actually stomached, I think Cyborg would beat her up pretty badly. Cyborg is a real fighter even if w145 is a wasteland. Gabi is a talented grappler whose primary skill has been to be 50-100lbs heavier than her opponents via lots of steroids.

Gabi is super nice and I hope one day to play UFO catcher games with her in places I've only seen in yakuza video games.

Cyborg is also very nice but you can't say god drat in front of her or she'll kick your rear end.

http://www.bellator.com/fighters Per their current fighters page:

Amanda Bell (6-6)
Arlene Blencowe (12-7)
Julia Budd (13-2, their current champ)
Janay Harding (5-4)
Danielle Hayes (0-1)
Elina Kallionidou (5-3)
Sinead Kavanagh (5-4)
Leah McCourt (2-1)
Talita Nogueira (7-1)
Hatice Ozyurt (2-7)
Olga Rubin (6-1)
Leslie Smith (11-7-1)

UFC's is, of course, blank https://www.ufc.com/athletes/all?filters%5B0%5D=status%3A23&filters%5B1%5D=weight_class%3A9

vs Budd would probably be good, I'd say vs Nogueira, Rubin and Smith would be interesting too. Surprised Ozyurt's still there tbh

Yeah Budd is really the only real 145er left for her to fight I can think of, that's a good matchup. Cyborg is a fraud and sucks poo poo but that's like the one good fight for her outside of getting murdered by Nunes again

The 8-woman flyweight tournament for the vacant championship is about to begin in Invicta. The Kansas Athletic commission does not want anyone fighting more than 25 minutes so they have imposed special rules.

Quarters and semis are all 1 5-minute round. Final is 3 rounds.

Random draw for quarterfinals, and the 2 best quarterfinal winners get to choose their semi opponent.
