    It's really hard to watch James Gallagher run about, I know James a long long time. This persona is all created and hard to stomach at times. Id love us to be able to judge these fighters but the calibre of opponents aren't good enough to judge.

    Are the opponents deemed not good enough because you have never heard of them or because you have watched them and seen their skillset?

    Cause I would deem them not good enough. You posted records of 8-1 that means nothing unless 5 or 6 of those are against a good pedigree.

    The card is a joke. The fact that Richard Kiley is on there proves it. He's a decent fella but his MMA record is gash. Lost his only ammy fight, best two nobodies and got schooled by Lahore in the first. He has no business being signed for an organisation like Bellator. I know he has some decent records in other disciplines but in MMA he's one dimensional and will be exposed badly any time he fights someone who can clinch or get s takedown.

    The having dross like Charlie on the main card as well as Qualey as co-main event before James fights some random bin collector.

    They're taking the absolute piss tbh. The fact that this card will be the first prime time slot on sky for Bellator is a massive fail for them, it will look like a low level local card because that's essentially what it is.

    Just caught the weigh-ins there on Facebook, what a bunch of ***** the SBG lads are. The card itself is the worst I've ever seen, the match-making is so bad its nearly a fix. I feel bad for anyone going to this who actually might not know what a sham they are watching.

    There have been stronger cards in parish halls around the country.

    Didn't even hear what they were saying but the atmosphere was good in the arena, alot more there than I taught there would be. Maybe I'm biased because a few of my mates are fighting on the card though.

    Haha, I've been waiting for the usual SBG begrudgers to come in and have their say.

    Not one bad word said about any non SBG fighter, you lads are so see through its comical.

    It's a glorified card of similar standard to anything else put on in Europe outside of the UFC, what's the issue? Nobody is pretending it's anything else. It's the best available pro Irish fighters all on the one card under the Bellator banner and ticket prices reflect that. Again, what's the issue?

    But that was my question, why do you deem them not good enough? Because you havenever heard if them or because you have seen them all fight and don't rate them?

    Yesterday you said 90% of the SBG fighters are sh1te, yet you are also complaining that their opponents are not good enough. Seems odd.

    We get it. You love SBG. Some other people don't.

    It's all a bit boring now.

    It is boring, you're right. The same people with the same nonsense over and over again. I don't love SBG, I like Irish MMA, professional and amateur. And for what it's worth I'd personally know more people from Team Ryano Finglas than I do any SBG.

    Yes I dont understand people moaning about SBG. They put us on the map.

    I would like to see more of other clubs represented too but that will come in time hopefully.

    I'm looking forward to the card as its an Irish show. Maybe UFC will see the energy and will come back sooner than later. As for standards, Gallagher got beaten last time so it shows anything can happen.I like him as he gets me interested in his fights.

    I'm not that familiar with all the Irish fighters but I hope they do well as always. Its live on Sky in our home so what more could you want!!

    Put us on the map. Speak for yourself. I was a blue belt when Conor was fighting in crumbling as a snotty nose kid.

    Reason I'm not saying it about other fighters cos the only one to cross the lines on face off was Kiefer and Richie. And get this Kiefer is a friend and i think he's a great talent.

    Nothing he squared up to his opponent and pushed him trying to drum up a bit of hype and it got the crowd going. Hardly something to be crying about on a forum.

    I'm not crying about it but when there's been no heated words and Kiefer just pushes the guy and then sounds like me 10 year old son mouthing I cringed. Maybe your as classy as your gym buddies but to me it's not Kiefer.
