29-28 Lima for me.

That was a homer decision from the judges.

mdwexford · 02-10-2021 2:02am

Cmon now it was a very close fight.

I scored it R1 MVP, R2 MVP, R3 Lima.

Wouldn’t have been shocked it Lima got the decision but hard to call a winner either way.

weemcd · 03-10-2021 4:28pm

Bellator will always remain a distant second or third to UFC if they keep main events 3 rounds. Another 2 rounds of MVP v Lima would have been brilliant. Why do they do that?

Also solid but unspectacular win from Leah McCourt, if she didn't win that one she should have called it a day. I really like her as a person and as an ambassador for women in MMA and Irish MMA, but I couldn't see her beating any top ranked opponents either.

Really bugs me from MMA fans often doing the whole ‘absolute joke decision’ spiel. It was a tight fight.

A lot of MMA fans are awful. I mean the kind of peope who like calling other people "casuals".

Theyre the kind of people who like to go on holiday in Dubai.

Ugh ‘casuals’… the most unbearable insult

No Roddy in Leah Mccourt corner. Has she moved on?

She may have given up the daily travel up and down had to be a PITA, especially as a single mum.

I thought Lima won but it was no way a robbery, very tight fight. The Venue was a shambles, worse than the point for coke consumption and they ran out of beer

Kavanagh Vs Cyborg confirmed Nov 12th. easy night for cyborg done within the first minute.

Pitbull has given up his title so its other pitbull vs queally for the belt in the 3arena. John Kavanagh in for a bad week

LollipopJimmy · 07-10-2021 11:13am

Sinead is on a decent run right now and is as tough as they come. I don't see your prediction ringing through.

Peter is on the back of a win against Pitbull. 2 fighters fighting for belts isn't a bad night.

callaway92 · 07-10-2021 12:51pm

How would Peter Queally stack up in the UFC WW Division out of interest? Have only seen him fight a few times and wasn't blown away by any means.

Tazzimus · 07-10-2021 1:43pm

I very much doubt he'd have a good time with any of the top 10 anyway.

Homelander · 07-10-2021 2:20pm

I like Sinead a lot but Cyborg is light years ahead of any competition she has faced.

Unless Cyborg has an awful night I cannot see any scenario where she doesn't knock her head off.

It is mad though. Imagine someone told you this time last year Sinead would be fighting Cyborg for the belt and Queally would be fighting Pitbull for the belt....in a rubber band match after Queally won the first.

From January 1st next year all Bellator main events will be 5 rounders.

LollipopJimmy · 10-10-2021 1:10pm

I'm from the same area as Sinead, in the coffee shop this morning listening to two aul ones talking about her upcoming fight. Whatever happens I'm delighted she's been given the chance to have a go at Cyborg. No doubt it's a tough night for her but still nice to see the locals get behind her. Sinead never stops, trains day in day out in and out of camp as well as being a single mum

Dtp1979 · 10-10-2021 8:22pm

When is the fight?

Asus X540L · 23-10-2021 7:15pm

Man Gareth A. Davies is insufferable.

No idea how he keeps getting on the telly.

Asus X540L · 23-10-2021 9:42pm

Wow Fedor looks like Homer Simpson but that was some combination.

I agree with you here 1 million percent. He's always been like this but he's actually getting worse.

Jesus I remember Lee Chadwick fighting Chris fields 10 years ago. I thought he looked near 40 back then. He’s only 36 now ffs

She's definitely tough.

selassie · 01-11-2021 9:55am

Will the price of tickets be reduced on the day? Card looks decent but there's still a lot of tickets left. 60 quid the cheapest to sit at the back.

akelly02 · 02-11-2021 12:09pm

james gallagher in for a hard night from what ive seen of this other guy?

no 3 ranked this lad is , would be a great scalp for gallagher if he could pull it off

Course he is Gallagher is a con job ,

Look at the rank of the guys he has beat recently ,

Bellator done a fantastic job milking Irish fans they built up total journey men like Gallagher & Crosbie to seem like legit future contenders or stars in MMA , the issues was eventually they would have to fight half decent lads and then the charade is over ,

It was a great business model while it lasted ,
