Funny given how much damage Moreno has dished out, but this might be 3-1 Pantoja (I have it 2-2 though)

Such a stacked card. Hope it delivers.

Du Plessis always has had weird movement but it looks even more weird tonight?

Leg injury?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Yo I love Moreno but there's no way he went 49-46.

Putting this up a bit early since I’ll be running around this afternoon. Fights start in four hours. Let’s go!

2-2 I think

Dana better spare 1 million dollars in bonuses for this night.

Ribovics is so hittable, not moving his head at all

So many flash KO's tonight, crazy!

Federation is working thankfully tonight (didn't last event) so our friends from Lemmy will be able to see us. Lets hope it holds, this event should be amazing.

That couldn't have gone any better for Robbie.

Holy moly! Did not see that coming. Let's go Lawler!

Robbie coming out to The Gael

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

the crowd makes such a difference, it's nice to watch a fight that doesn't sound like it's in an empty church.

Herb must have dirt on Dana and/or Ratner at this point to continue to get events.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He's impressive on the ground.

very good card so far.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Everybody please BOOST this thread so we can get others from the Fediverse here.

Thanks.

I think with this community being so small that putting up the thread a little early is a good idea. If people show up early, they will know there is/will be a live thread. Plus it serves as a little pregame thread.

I know people give Bellator grief, but I much prefer the rapid fire approach to their prelims, even if it means a ~30 minute break before the main card. I just hate all this downtime between fights.
