I've gone perfect on the last 2 Bellator cards, hopefully the trend continues. Though some of these prelims were tricky, the main card SEEMS easy.

I think a lot of these could be toss up fights, most in the prelims.

i'll give you a heads up. the guy fighting matt nice has not fought in 4 years and was ko'd in his last fight in under a minute. plus he is almost 37 years old. this is just info. you make your own decision.

i don't know why he is that high. fekete's opponents all average except the one he lost too. plus the other guy goes for knockouts. somebody is getting knocked out in this fight. 4 star ribbon better than 3 star one. lol. although i'm going to check right before the fight to make sure he is still is +600. if he is i'm taking him too. the moneylines do change here like tito's did and that guy haggan that beat soto.

I'm not switching to Nice...Calandrelli may have had a long layoff but he's probably been working on his gym. He's a BB in BJJ under Shaolin. I don't pick people til they prove themselves, and Nice's ammy wins are over guys who are 0-1,0-2,0-4 and 0-3. Pro wins are over a 1-3 and 0-1. Quality competition right there.

I'm sticking with Calndrelli too. Nice's record doesn't really impress me.

the guy who ko'd calndrelli in his last fight is 2-4 and he knocked him out in 35 seconds. real impressive. plus 2 of his wins are against the same guy who is 2-11. we will see who gets knocked out.

I know, but I can't decide which one is more of a can than the other.
