    Freak show card! I have money on Ken and Kimbo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭CurryFlavoured


    Unless it's rigged (not unlikely) I don't see how Kimbo doesn't win, I've watched Dada's 2 fights and he is awful.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Anyone watching? Kimbo fight about to start I can see him getting a ko within 2 minutes Dada is mike jackson level.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭CurryFlavoured


    This is the biggest pile of crap I've ever seen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭CurryFlavoured


    Worst fight of all time, both guys were too tired to keep their hands up after a minute never mind throw a proper punch.

    Worst Mma fight I have ever watched
    my 4 year old nephew throws a better punch than dada 500


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,137 ✭✭✭TimRiggins


    Hope you guys still have more in the tank!

    GRACIE V SHAMROCK TIME!!!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Im in stitches laughing absolute gold that is the worst and funniest fight in combat history.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,649 ✭✭✭Whelo79


    So Big John Mccarthy won the Kimbo Slice v Dada5000 fight by KO.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭CurryFlavoured


    Pretty sure Dada fell over from exhaustion rather than any punch, or he just gave up. Imagine what any technically half decent, in shape fighter could do to them? I reckon Mighty Mouse could've beaten either by running around for a minute or 2 until they got tired.

    I thought it was the last uppercut that connected. It wobbled him and he was falling down for about 10 seconds

    That event is an embarrassment to mma

    That was shocking. I thought it couldn't get worse than Dada falling around the place but then i see Kenneth lying on his side holding his balls while Royce hammerfisted him. Was such a bizarre scene. And then the ref holds both of their hands up.

    Roll on 3 weeks of UFC to hopefully wipe all trace of Bellator 149 from my memory.

    Hadn't been paying attention to mma for the last month or so , once I saw the card for this I knew i shouldn't bother but was compelled to see it all the same :D


    Yeah it was actually worse than i was expecting, it's probably a little unfair to Bellator do as they have some great fighters on the books but it seems like they have been relying a little on the likes of these guys to sell cards.

    Anyway theres a wsof and one event to look forward to this weekend to wash the taste of this event out of my mouth :D

    Edit: Actually I did enjoy Mike Tyson commentating at the Bellator event :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    Hands down the worst fight I've ever seen. Kimbo and Dada both employing the Homer Simpson boxing strategy, awful stuff.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,480 ✭✭✭Devastator


    2 of the worst fights I have ever watched! It was actually worse than I feared!!

    That Kimbo/Dada fight was just a complete disaster. How any promotion could put that on is a joke and surely neither will ever fight in 'professional' sports again. John McCarthy needs to take a look at himself for letting that go on. From about 1 minute in both looked exhausted! Gracie/Shamrock wasn't much better! 2 utterly past it fighters taking a payday with a contraversial ending? hmmmm I hope that is the last we see of them.

    Bellator are like a parody mma promotion.

    Not sure John Mccarthy should be taking any blame. What grounds would he have for stopping the fight really? Disqualify both guys for being exhausted?

    Basically because it was sh*t? :D

    Seriously though, in the last round, dada especially, could you call it "intelligently defending themselves" when they couldn't lift their hands above their hips?

    I like Big John, he's been around so long and been involved in the current MMA rules,etc it just seemed very strange watching him let the two of them go on. If they were dogs/horses the vet would have put a little curtain up around them before you heard a *bang*

    Been away for a while. Caught up on Bellator and WSOF.

    Bellator was painful stuff. Whatever about the various celebrities they had tweeting about it to gain interest from casual fans, it's an event that could really hinder them in the future.

    I tend to view Bellator as a side show. They've got some quality fighters but it's so hard to take them seriously with their latest card. An absolute joke.

    WSOF was surprisingly good but their venue selections are appalling. Their latest event was held in the Next Level Sports Complex in California which is essentially a large community centre.

    It'd be ok for a regional promotion on a small scale but WSOF is shown on NBC which is a pretty major network in the States.

    Marlon Moraes is an absolute beast of a fighter and has vicious leg kicks. He's arguably their biggest talent but I think he was on the MMA Hour recently discussing that he's only got 2 fights left on his contract and wants to move on.

    A promoter that really needs to up its game badly.

    John Kavanagh was saying on The MMA Hour that one of his young pros will be signing for Bellator. Gallagher or Tuke I wonder?
