Welp, 4 fighters missed weight, including Dufresne on the main card (has she ever made weight?) but otherwise we're set for a pretty solid Bellator card on a quiet weekend in terms of major MMA. 

The action kicks off Friday night. Prelims hit Spike.com around 7pm ET followed by the main card on Spike TV at 9pm. 

Enjoy!

Wonder what kind of odds you could've got on a parlay of Coenen being subbed and boobirds during a Manhoef fight

Manhoef should get this. Carvalho's performance was very disappointing.

I am so disappointed in Carvalho.. What the **** was that. At least Manhoef somewhat went for it. Carvalho should be ashamed as the champion.

Worst decision for the worst fight on the worst card ever. What a night.

I hope that Scott Coker does his job tonight and fire some people and redo this ****. I dont want to see it again, but Melvin should have the belt.
