Dope fights

Not a lot of casual names, but this looks like an awesome card. Glad to see some older guys making use of their time and staying active, Salter, James, Khabilov. Also I wonder what took Khabilov so long.

Prediction Comments

Golm vs. James
Daniel James, TKO, R1
Not really main event worthy but **** this fight is awesome. Both underrated heavyweights. I like roided up James here

Zingano vs. McCourt
Cat Zingano, DEC
There’s nobody besides cyborg who can beat roided zingano. I doubt Leah mcCanCrusher is the one to do it

Salter vs. Jeffery
Aaron Jeffery, TKO, R2
Salter is always dangerous but he’s on the decline. Jeffery is a really solid mw; if he hadn’t got such tough opponents on dwcs, he would be in the ufc and doing well. At least he’s a top contender here

Willis vs. Khabilov
Rustam Khabilov, DEC
Poor Willis never gets easy fights. Rustam may be one of the most boring fighters on the roster but he’s talented. Layoff shouldn’t affect him too much

Colgan vs. Montalvo
Archie Colgan, TKO, R2
Rare prospect vs prospect fight from Bellator. Colgan is really green but has high level wrestling and good power. He should beat montalvo

Hamel vs. Browne
Nick Browne, DEC
Hamel is way better than his record shows

Wilson vs. Nallo
Jay Jay Wilson, TKO, R2
Still not 100% sold on Wilson, but nallo seems to get his ass whooped against every step up

Gracie vs. Pacheco
Khonry Gracie, SUB, R2
Gracie is a can. I bet they looked hard to give him a winnable fight

Golm vs. James
Daniel James, TKO, R3
James last win was legendary

Zingano vs. McCourt
Leah McCourt, DEC
Zingano is a buly for sure she will probably win

Salter vs. Jeffery
Aaron Jeffery, TKO, R2
I think Jeffery will challenge for title soon if he doesnt lose

Willis vs. Khabilov
Rustam Khabilov, DEC
Damn Dagestan taking over Bellator now

Colgan vs. Montalvo
Archie Colgan, TKO, R3
Someones 0 will go

Hamel vs. Browne
Nick Browne, DEC
Browne doing it for all the bald guys

Wilson vs. Nallo
Jay Jay Wilson, DEC
Great fight both are good

Gracie vs. Pacheco
Khonry Gracie, SUB, R2
Always an honor to see a Gracie fight, Pacheco has a ko win over a 3-0 guy Gracie should be careful
