Not entirely sure what time this one starts. I believe it's being tape-delayed, but working on the details. 

Right now we've got it earmarked for a 3pm ET start Saturday afternoon. 

Solid little card. Kickboxing card is separate.

yeah idk either

i know it's being tape delayed to play right after UFC on FOX to try and get some of that crowd once the fights are over. Gonna have to stay off the web to avoid spoilers.

The way it's set up it's the Local promotions portion first, Bellator Kickboxing, and then the MMA card. Still no idea on times and how it works out.

Nothing from this card really wows anyone. Kevin Souza is a good match if only for the fact that Patricky has been contemplating moving down to 145 and he is facing a guy that fought at 145 at a high level.

Another Name fight for Rogers. I don't know who they give him after this but if he wins, he's gotta be knocking on the door of contention at LHW. He'll still need 2 fights at least for a title shot, but i could see him fighting one of the top guys with a win here.

My cable provider has it scheduled at 10e/9c pm here in the states, so hopefully a live stream pops up

As far as I know, there won't be any live streams. Just the tape delay broadcast in Spike.

Tape delay is how Bellator is for me no matter what so what's a few more hours. The only problem is UFC is live the same day so avoiding spoilers is a little more difficult.

fights will be in cage

the cage will be above the ring while the kickboxing card is going on. only thing i can compare it to is how Pro Wrestling does it for their steel cage matches. then lowers it for the MMA portion.

I always check Tapology for times and I thought it said 3PM EST but Spike has literally no Bellator listed until 10PM EST

The tickets page has it starting at 17:30 (5:30 PM) local time in Turin.  http://www.clappit.com/biglietti-oktagon/showProductList.html Which was 3 hours, 45 minutes ago.  I assume the kickboxing part was first, though.

Edit:  Yep, Checked online for live results.  Kickboxing main event not finished yet.  MMA portion scheduled to start in 40 minutes.

Fights are airing now. Yankova actually looks to have some legit ground skills, but her level of opposition is Xplode Fight Series quality thus far. 

Needs a bit of a bump, but she's only 3-0.

Interesting that Bellator was saying Belluardo was 5-0 going into the fight, when he was 5-3

@Psy I think Bellator is basing their stats (records) on sherdog's database. By the way, I think Belluardo record is actually 7-3, and Miceli is 6-0, before tonight's fights, from what I have seen from a reliable Italian database.

That standup in the 1st could have changed the course of the fight. Rogers was active and was working, in those last 20 seconds Sakara connected with some good shots.

Rogers was getting his ass handed to him the whole fight and he was gassed by the 2nd round as per usual.

@Bigj383 I disagree. Rogers controlled the 1st, landed some good shots on top, and was working when the referee called the standup. Then, on the feet with little time to end the 1st, Sakara landed good shots. The referee decision in the fight, standup in the 1st, affected the fight. Not saying Sakara wouldn't have won, anyway, as I think what you described as Rogers being gassed on the 2nd I think is Rogers touched or hurt and falling apart mentally. Rogers ability to take damage has been looking a lot like James Thompson taking damage, becoming a punching dummie once he is hurt. Both guys chin have deteriorited a lot.
