The fighters are weighed in and nary a day-of card change in sight ... me likes the new Bellator. 

Prelims kick off on Spike.com at 7pm ET followed by the main card on Spike TV at 9pm. 

McGregor Mania has completely drowned this one out, but it's a solid card with a quality main and co-main. 

Keep it on the Tapologys Friday night.

The term was around long before world war II. Yeah it became derogatory then because we were engaged in a ******* nuclear war with them so the whole United States hated them thus anything said about them could be referred to as derogatory. I don't care what other people think, It is much easier to say/type Jap than it is to say Japanese. Just as it is much easier to call someone native to austrailia "abo" as opposed to "aborigine" or "arab" instead of "arabic."

Now when you come up with a completely different word to refer to someone in a negative way, sure, racist. But I don't think I'm going to get mad at anyone for calling me an Ameri/

Kimbo vs. Bonnar! 

But Coker has to pay Bonnar not to take it to the ground

Are we... Are we actually talking about Kimbo Slice in early 2015?

Weichel/Curran and Pitbull/Straus make up for Tito Ortiz, Zwicker/Alexander and Kimbo Slice.

I thought Kimbo was cut too early by the UFC.

As a wrestler and large Penn State fan it pains me to see that Bubba lost like it pains Houston Alexander to do any cardio.

Well, I have 40 dollars in a Gonzalez/Zwicker/Georgi/Pitbull parlay at 11 to 1. I wasn't even watching Bellator before (streams suck, and no channels are broadcasting Bellator in Brazil) since I had no hope of actually hitting it but this next fight will be one of the most interesting ones I'll ever watch.

EDIT: And the first thing I see is a Kimbo Slice promo. Bellator is such a freak show.

Why Bubba why did you have to look to slam someone who's known for his guillotine? When is that ever a good idea?
