Douglas Lima, TKO, R3
Huge step up for Page. If he makes it to fight night, I don't think he has the stuff to beat Lima.

I am picking Lima, but Douglas is a counter puncher as well. So, this could be a borefest too. I think Lima, at least, will be a little more proactive than Daley though.

can't believe they mange to find even bigger bum to fight Jake Hager. They are pretty much handing him show fee. There is no way he will lose this fight. He cannot train for 3 months still win.

The main events would be mid-tier events in the UFC,They're only relatively awesome by the standards  Bellator, which are abysmal. Even Influenza looks awesome compared to ebola.

Done with Bellator. I'll watch Mousasi, Rory mac and a coupleof others, but I'll never watch a full card again.

Would've been perfect for tonight. Would watch tomorrow but it's on at the same time UFC 237 is on. I really hate when Bellator does this.

Very curious to see how McKee Jr. does against a former champ like Curran.

Chandler vs. Pitbull
Patricio Pitbull, TKO, R4
I really hope Pitbull KTFO's Chandler, the smug prick! I can't stand him! I know fighters need to be confident and believe they're the best but this guy is just an *******! I think he's gonna try lay n pray his way to victory, I'm hoping Pitbull can make it into the 3rd, 4th coz Chandler gasses and his striking becomes sloppy and predictable, Pitbull catches himgets the KO or drops him and jumps on his neck and chokes him out! PLEASE MMA GODS!

Lima vs. Page
Michael Page, DEC
I'm still unsure about MVP? I don't think he's been as exposed as a lot people think after the Daley fight. I mean did anyone expect Daley to turn into a wrestler? Lima is a beast but he's no wrestler, he's got submissions but I think MVP will be better prepared for that type of fight. I don't know? I keep picturing MVP landing something crazy!

McKee Jr. vs. Curran
AJ McKee Jr., SUB, R2
AJ looks like he could be a Bellator champion. If Curran is back to his old self this will be real tough!

Hager vs. Jones
Jake Hager, SUB, R1
Just imagine if TJ KO's the WWE guy! That would be amazing!
