Predictions: 1 of 2 Winners, 0 Perfect, 65 Points   |   Tied for 345th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for one of the best Bellator events in a while. 

Even the prelims have a lot to look for.

Speaking of, prelims should kick off around 7pm ET on Spike.com before moving over to the Spike TV main card at 8pm.

Picks may be locking around 6. Depends how many postlims we're looking at here.

Enjoy!

I am not even watching this card right now but as soon as I heard that Michael Page won via toe hold I had to come here just to say: HOLY ****.

Surprised that's a split, and more surprised Primus won

haha

The judges hate santos. ***. Robbed by the judges back to back. Wonder where he goes from here. Very entertaining fighter.


Now time for Ward vs Santos. This card is full of pure violence

I had it 29-28 Furia, however, the 2nd rd. was close, with Primus coming forward and Furia waiting too much to counter Primus. In my opinion Furia stole the 2nd with the flurry the last 30 seconds. Guess the judges saw the 2nd for Primus. Not a robbery imo.

Of course there's a lot of miles on him.  He was married to the other Cyborg.

Cyborg is starting to fight smarter, good for him, but I still don't think he'll go much further.
