Oh yeah there's a Bellator thing going on right now I guess I should tune in to watch MVP get knocked out hilariously.

It really looks like that... I hope there hasn’t been some gently caress up here, but I’ve seen similar on smaller British shows in the past.

Da Gooch has now given up his Bellator bantamweight title due to his injury/surgery

Bellator is going to book a title fight soon, and says they will give Kyoji a title shot when he is healthy

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Tito is a treasure

:lol: I've never seen that before. I'll try to go back and get a screenshot of it but the fighters knocked the ad off of the cage post and it just looks like a coroplast sheet with some logos on it and the ref awkwardly adjusted it once the fighters got away.

So the commentator in the clip you linked repeatedly insists that the dude tapped on the mat on the outer side.

45 seconds in:

Commentator 1: Looks like <fighter name> is disagreeing with the stoppage but I also (meaning with the ref) thought he tapped.

Commentator 2: Yeah yeah he tapped, tapped...with the outer side hand he tapped the canvas...tapped, tapped the canvas and <clip cuts off>

Also they're using the same word for "Tapping" as I would use in daily life for "knocking" so I'm assuming they actually mean tap and not the banging his arm did when it fell on the canvas as he went unconscious.

Travis Fulton
Travis Wiuff
Dan Severn
Jeremy Horn

Of the 4 MMA fighters I know of with close to or more than 100 fights, two are named Travis. I thought Travis Wiuff had 100+ but he only has 99.

Dan Severn is the only one I know of who has 100+ wins and wins against legit fighters.

I wonder how many of those fights are just between those 4 guys though? I think Severn and Fulton fought like 4 or 5 times

The only other guy like that I could think of is Shonie Carter. 92 MMA fights, plus sixty-something kickboxing matches and an unknown number of boxing/bareknuckle bouts.

Is the goon who let Shonie sleep in (and puke on) his truck still around? I forget who it was.

Shannon Ritch is another of the guys with a ridiculously long career and well over 100 fights. I think I also heard that he's actually won some of them but, you know, hearsay and all.

The highlight of his career was when Brian Ebersole knocked him out with a cartwheel kick and the commissioners watching it said that what happened was too ridiculous to be anything other than a work and suspended both of them and overturned the result.
