29-28 was the correct score IMO. Ishii with Round 1 and Rampage winning the last 2.

The 2nd round could of gone either way. However I thought Rampage did enough in the clinch to offset the early takedown.

Honestly besides the TD early for Ishii he really did nothing at all in the 2nd besides press Rampage against the cage and eat shots.

Kato having Schilling's number is the weirdest thing. Two insane knockouts now. If I saw the picture of Schilling landing on the ground out of context it would look like a zombie movie. Damn he's dead.

I didn't get to see the Rampage fight, but I saw you guys say the 30-27 was ********. Did Rampage deserve to get the split or was it highway robbery?

@dtrain24 Ishii absolutely won the 1st. That judge that scored the fight 30-27 is a disgrace. Rd. 2 Ishii pinned Rampage against the cage almost all round, not a lot of action there, both with shorts shots plus Ishi got a takedown at the beginning of the second. The third I gave it to Rampage. I had 29-28 Ishii. Poor guy got robbed.

@Kinsalsa Thanks for the briefing. I feel for Ishii if he really did get robbed.

Just watched the recording of this Bellator event. I thought Ishii won against Rampage as well two rounds to one. Not a lot happened and that judge that scored it 3-0 rampage must have been watching a different fight, what a terrible score! Was glad to see the kickboxing on there and also the Chandler fight. Bellator has been mostly boring this year so far. Most of the time I have found the Legacy fights much more entertaining. Bellator is really turning into the UFC Retirement Tour more and more each day.

Just watched the event. The undercard MMA fights were good pretty entertaining though 2/3 were pretty one sided. I didn't give two ****s about the Kickboxing fights and I could have done without them, they weren't really that entertaining to me. The main event was pretty garbage I was glad Rampage got the nod though I didn't agree with the 30-27. I'm just glad Ishii wasn't able to stall his way to a victory. Though Rampage looked way out of shape.

Rampage keeping it real at the presser.

"I suck at fighting southpaws", "I didn't train before this fight" (duh), "I'm sort of training from now on so I might be able to make 205 next fight".

That's what you're paying for Bellator so don't go crying he ain't knocking fools out anymore. Rampage is there to get butts in seats and nothing more. He's a face on a poster. He knows it and everybody else knows it too.

Rampage is going to keep fighting "names" at flabweight until his contract is done.

Just watched the Bellator card, some great fights, Chandler and Mitrione were impressive although for different reasons. some of the Glory fights were good as well I tought the pace was better on this Dynamite than the first one.

what sucked was the Rampage vs Ishii fight, it was just  like I imagined it would be, except with the judges screwing up the decision and gifting the fight to Rampage, man the only thing that guy does better than ***** and moan when his opponents dont stand still in front of him its get gifted wins, he should have 3 or 4 losses more on his record. seriously at this point I just dont get how he still has fans following him around.  and god that last judge giving it 30-27 for rampage  I don't even have words for it.
