Yeah, my first thought was "Isn't that what PFL is?"

 

I'm watching Karate Combat's Instagram live right now. Adam from Karate Combat is from Hungary, then he's got GSP, Lyoto and Bas on since they are the league ambassadors... It's an awesome group, but it's funny listening to all four of their English accents trying to communicate. haha. Also, three of them are in t-shirts and GSP is in a full Men In Black style suit. I love it.

 

Robin Black needs to stop bro lmao

 

I like the guy, but that BINK thing is such a forced catch phrase... He's been using it for years and I just don't think it's ever caught on with anyone else lol

 

Looks like Condit has retired. I’m going to miss watching him compete for sure (he’s probably in my top 2-3 favorite fighters of all time). He probably could have retired after the Lawler fight tbh, but I’m glad he ended on a few good fights.

 

Condit and Benavidez both retired this week. Two legends I loved watching. Happy to see them know when it’s time.


GSP wearing a suit is not surprising at all lol but he always looks so giddy.

 

lol my guess was that it was going to turn out to be Bjorn (like with the fighter's union that failed), but this doesn't seem much better.

 

long live the MMAAA

 

What’s everyone’s view on this card? I feel like I don’t know anyone on the main card and then Pennington is on prelims which makes me think I should know more people on the main card?

 

Bellator has the better card tonight

 

let's go, Yoel!

 

Well

Anthony 'Rumble' Johnson out of Bellator light heavyweight grand prix

 

I'll step in

Close enough to fighting weight

 

That’s why the tourneys are always a little goofy. They’re so exciting when they get announced and then less than half of the fights pan out. By the time there’s a winner, you’ve forgotten there was even a tournament.

 

yup

 

Jeez

 

damn, wishing him well

that sounds very serious

 

meh, wanted to see Nemkov vs Romero but same old Yoel.

Gracie looked great too

 

Romero saying he thought it was 5 rounds LOL

 

Yoel gonna fight Jake Paul now

 

Why does Yoel always have something bizarre happen in his fights? Haha

 

when he retires, it will be one of the biggest cases of wondering what might have been, at least for me

one of the most vexing fighters

 

Phil Davis is really good, hope people don't forget that. That said, Yoel looked old. How an Olympic silver medalist in wrestling never wrestles is beyond me.

Neiman looked great. Palozzi and Neal was a good scrap too.

Mauro was dreadful on the call. I'm a broken record on this, but they need to change everything about their presentation. It's so amateur feeling. Constantly cutting to the desk, or Gareth in London, it's all very exhausting. UFC can hold an event in an empty warehouse and make it look clean, but Bellator feels low rent in an arena.
