After an aborted attempt with Rampage vs Tito, Bellator is back with a second try and pay per view when Rampage takes on King Mo.  Original main event trilogy fight with Alvarez and Chandler fell through due to an Alvarez training concussion, so Rampage/Mo is the main event.

Some other interesting fights also on the card.  Televised Spike prelims are at 8pm ET, and the the PPV slot is at 10pm.

Does anyone know if they are online-streaming fights prior to the Spike portion?

As I said, a nut shot. And an ugly one. Richman won't actually recover from that, but no points will be deducted.

EDIT: It won't matter since Richman is 10x better. But still.

Yamauchi's guard is similar to Anderson Silva's one (although obviously worse). Yamauchi is winning this round, but since MMA judges can't recognize when the fighter on top is losing a grappling exchange he will lose the decision. I bet on his opponent but it's kind of sad that MMA judging is still like this.

Just because he moved his ******* hips around for submissions means he won the round, ******* stupid, richman was landing groud and pound and won the striking at the end of the round

Goiti wasn't anywhere near landing a sub in the 3rd.  I don't see how all three judges gave him that round.

And the winner by ******** decision.., I was kind of hoping this would happen tho.

Richman did nothing but stall while Goti spent the whole fight looking for the finish.

Richman didn't do anything. At least Goiti was working.

What fight were you watching? he got Goichi down, (which should count more than coming nowhere close to a sub) and hit him with better ground and pound than there were submission attempts. The judges got it wrong, plain and simple.

@benjaminbrandt The judges had to score two not-a-massacre rounds correctly in a row. The chances of that happening are 25% in an MMA fight. I am not that surprised.



It's not like we haven't seen worse things.

Wow. That layoff was not good for Sham. He looked very sluggish.
