    RDA v Islam Makhachev is off because of injury

    Felder steps in at 5 days notice to fight RDA. It's still a five round fight.

      Felder is a gangsta for losing 20 pounds and turning up on weight. Lost in a dubious split decision. Only dubious because RDA was clearly the winner.

      Didn’t see much of the card as it was 35° today and spent most of it at the beach.

        Good card with some good finishes

        Felder has endeared himself to Dana big time.

        Khaos Williams. Bammmmmmm

          Not official but Hooker suggested he will be fighting Gaethje early next year (nothing signed yet)

          Lot's of huge fights coming up at lightweight

          McGregor v Poirier
          Ferguson v Chandler
          Hooker v Gaethje (probably)

          Edit: Ferguson v Oliveira confirmed now. Chandler needs to fight someone... that might bump Hooker

            Impressive finish by Holland that started from his back
            alt text

            Oliveira dominated Ferguson. 12 wins in a row for Ferguson and now 2 losses in a row. Will be interesting to see who he gets matched with next. Maybe Hooker or Felder?

            Amazing flyweight championship fight. Moreno has a habit of exceeding expectations

                    think i agree, but i have a lot of time for knocking a bloke out from your back (flashbacks to rugby days and trying to win fights from that position, and how badly it used to go)

                    That Garbandt one looked like a pub fight KO

                      So Dan Hooker is fighting Michael Chandler on Jan 23rd

                      Interesting that it took so long to get announced. Hooker was keen to talk about it back in December so the delay appears to come from Chandlers end.
                      Did Chandler not think Hooker was a big enough name? Or did he not like the match up?

                      Personally I think the match up isn't great for Chandler. Hooker is tall, has a strong chin and is quite watchful in the first round. I'll pick Chandler to get frustrated and then walk onto a knee

                      Huge opportunity for Hooker. It'll be the co-main on the McGregor v Poirier PPV. A Connor event means massive ratings.

                          Bellator is not the UFc but there are some animals over there. Chandler was one of them. I don't think he's champion material but he will put on some good fights. Hooker is too long and too battle-hardened now. He's been in wars and just seems to get better. I also think Chandler gets a knee and it's over.

                            I personally thought that Bellator is full of garbage but after watching a couple of shows I can agree with raznomore. There are some wild animals there.

                              Cracking card to start off 2021

                              Some great finishes, some upsets.

                                  Hard to judge how good Conor is right now. If he still has that accuracy I’ll pick him to finish the fight in the 2nd

                                  Chandler is dangerous. If he doesn’t get a KO early he’ll have to wrestle. I don’t think he can keep up with Hookers stand up for long.
                                  Hooker to end the fight with his knee as the take down attempts get more desperate

                                    Fuck

                                    Chandler caught him.

                                    I think that’ll be an excuse for Khabib to have one more fight but deny Conor a rematch

                                      Chopped up the calf and then trapped Conor against the cage. Huge result

                                        Thought some of the fights on this card were boring as shit so will just focus on the co main and main.

                                        Hooker looked tentative and didn’t seem to know how to work a mush smaller more compact fighter. Didn’t expect that at all. Chandler looked very sharp and fuck he can work a mic. He’s not totally convinced anyone just yet but he arrived in style. I hope Hooker isn’t done but it’s sounds like Felder thinks he might be. Great respect from Pourier to Hooker as well. Telling Chandler he beat very tough guy.

                                        Calm, respectful Conor is good for anyone especially him. We want heel Conor. I think this is a wake up call to either quit now or give away the playboy shit. He said he’s be back in 2021. I think he’s done.

                                          Chandler looked great. Menacing.

                                          Fair play to Dustin. Took some great shots, patient, then BAMMMMMMM.
