Apparently Nate is never going to fight anyone except Conor. Pathetic.

This Werdum/Covington situation is just awful.

Both are in the wrong and Werdum should be charged appropriately.

But there is just no place in MMA for Covingtons bullshit.

Condit/Magny is a bit lopsided, but it's just good to see Condit fighting again.

Khabib/Barboza should be entertaining, though as has already been said, that's assuming Khabib actually fights.

Jury/Glenn might be good? Also Gokhan Saki.

But yeah, that's a really shitty PPV lineup.

Syder How does a champion get stripped of his title for inactivity in 2016 and a company waits until the end of 2017 to announce a grand prix to crown a replacement champion?

Did Bellator just not book the guy? Did he refuse to accept the fights? Was he pretending to be injured? Is this a full carny attempt by Bellator to take the title from Vitaly Minakov and hopefully get it on Rampage Jackson?

Bellator are pretty carny but Minakov was stripped for going AWOL and taking fights in Russia, don't really blame Bellator here. "We're going to retain Minakov's rights with the company, but we are going to strip him of the title for lack of participation" According to Minakov though, he has 8 fights remaining on his contract. He may be involved in the GP but who knows, and I don't think Bellator are desperate to have him back.

Tyrone is so desperate to fight an unranked WW, it's pretty pathetic how much he's basically begging for that fight .

To be fair, he's already fought everyone in the top 10 and the only contenders are RDA and Lawler who are already scheduled to fight each other for the next shot. Unless you want to give Covington a shot. The Diaz bros are the only decent money fights out there unless he can get GSP in the cage.

God I'm fading just now and still have forty five minutes until the prelims start, think this could be a good card as well.

Also just watched the Frampton fight and he's going to need to do some hours in the gym if he wants to get his hands on a belt.

Can't really blame Woolley. Dana set a precedent with Conor and GSP that rankings don't really matter so why should fighters care about rankings as opposed to money fights?

He's beaten everyone at Welterweight that matters except Covington at this point, and I think he wipes the floor with him so I don't blame him for wanting the money fight with GSP.

Woodley has a jacked up shoulder, didn't want to fight anyone else but is begging for a fight with Nate.

Conor and GSP are on another level. How does anyone equate that Woodley should get the same treatment ?

He brings no viewers and has had two of the most boring title fights in recent memory.

Blame Wonderboy and Maia. Or maybe just watch a different sport if you want theatrics instead of skill and care so much about PPV numbers.

So blame the opponents but not Woodley? How about blame them all?

I don't care about numbers but don't act oblivious as to why GSP and Conor get the treatment they do

This guy is weak and gets utterly starched by anyone on the top 10.

Even for a fight night card no one knew was on that was still fucking garbage.

I'm glad I skipped the entire card last night and went through it quickly earlier today. I didn't miss anything. Nice.

LHW is such a shitshow now.
