Wanderlei Silva vs Vitor Belfort, Tito Ortiz vs Rashad Evans, and Fabricio Werdum vs Fedor Emelianenko to headline PPV event at Tyson Ranch on November 21st

The year 2007 was indeed pretty great.

It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?



If that card happens I see little reason to believe any of those fights go any differently from the first time

The first Rashad/Tito fight was a draw due to point deduction. That does somehow still seem like the more likely outcome than Rashad finishing anyone in MMA ever again after losing all those fights in a row, including being stumped by the technique of Dad Kelly and Sam Alvey for a combined 30 minutes of cage time.

I think 2020 Tito Ortiz is assuredly on way, way better steroids than 2020 Rashad Evans.

What happened to make them change that?

I think it's the latter.

I don't see why they don't just ban shoes altogether? Do they have a lot of Russians who would prefer to wear shoes that they don't want to annoy?

Some watchable looking fights on Bellator tomorrow:

quote:

MAIN CARD (Paramount, DAZN, 10 p.m. ET)

Phil Davis (205.7) vs. Lyoto Machida (205.3)
Gabrielle Holloway (150.7) vs. Cat Zingano (145.9)
Taylor Johnson (185.7) vs. Ed Ruth (185.1)
Raymond Daniels (169.7) vs. Peter Stanonik (166.6)

PRELIMINARY CARD (MMA Junkie, 8:15 p.m. ET)

Rafael Carvalho (205.8) vs. Alex Polizzi (203.6)
Amanda Bell (149) vs. Leslie Smith (145.7)
Tyrell Fortune (251.1) vs. Jack May (259.8)
Keith Lee (140.7) vs. Vinicius Zani (143.2)

Zingano is fighting a jobber, so she might end up doing something cool. Amanda Bell has shown KO power and Leslie Smith is usually game for an ugly fight. Decent heavyweight fight. Kevin Lee's brother.

I hope so. Looks like her opponent came in almost 5 pounds over, and Zingano seemingly hasn’t had a good thing happen to her in forever.

since they're working with a tribal commission as Bellator's bubble is at either the Mohegan Sun or Foxwoods (for the wonder of it all...): do rules about having to forfeit purse, catchweights, etc differ there than under state athletics commissions? i know having more fights at tribal casinos like the CT two/WinStar near Dallas/etc has allowed Bellator to be more, shall we say, lenient in regards to the gas.

If I remember they do but only slightly in terms if percentage? Really a tribal commission is mainly how Bellator gets around serious hard medical and drug testinc compared to state commissions etc. They've been doing that since pre-corona.

Here is a Shemetov Update for those interested. This one surprised me, since pretty much every other Shemetov Bros video has them running around like madmen outside, so I didn't know if they knew what buildings were

first event under the new deal will be Paul "Semtex" Daley vs Derek Anderson from Milan on Oct 1, which will air live during daytime hours in the US and get re-aired in the evening. Coker also said that Bellator will move more events to Thursday nights and is working on using CBS broadcast/Showtime for bigger cards.

the other big news in the presser was that Bellator will be running the first major MMA event in France since it got legalized there in January following a lot of stone-walling from the very powerful French judo federation. it'll be at the Paris-Bercy Arena with 5,000 people permitted to attend and Cheick Kongo in the main.

Huh. CBS has traditionally been one of the worst when it comes to streaming, so I'm not sure how to feel about this. That said, I think CBSSN comes with my parents' cable package, even if the main channel doesn't.

I mean you can't be certain he threw it with intention to land there but yea DQ should happen.
You did it already once and dropped him. Now the fight restarts and you immediately go for the same exact kick. What is wrong with you?
