20-18 Nad in my books.

Probably 20-16 in the judges books in favour of Pimblett knowing CW judges.

Yeah I remember you saying this about the judges in CW. In my innocence I thought it was above board!

All judges have it 20-16 for Pimblett

To be fair to Pimblett - he looks in super shape

Place looks like its on wheels.

Hope Narimani sparks him in the first round otherwise he's not getting the win if it goes to the judges. When the "champion"'s manager is the owner of the promotion and you see the Erosa fight you have to ask some questions.

yeah, that was awful stuff, put me off CW a lot, hope Pimblett gets ko'd, don't like him one bit

Here come's Jay from The Inbetweners.

Just saw this tweet :pac::pac:

Ah least they go around the world sure dont they run shows in Jordan and mad places like that, Bamma are worse for labeling their belts world titles,

Hope Pimblett hits a crazy sub.

Calling the CW title a world championship is laughable.

Lee is awful terrible style not a bit of power in them shots cant throw a straight punch.

Tito Ortiz would beg to differ :pac::pac::pac::pac:

CW's roster is painfully bad to watch in terms of ability.

Pimblett to get destroyed by Narimani for 5 rounds then win by decision

That awful commentator Nicholas Dalby just ran out of things to say and there was literally an awkward silence!!

There was just a Standing Guillotine finish by Lee Chadwick

Yeah Tommy Quinn wrecked in a minute there, could see Pimblett getting ko'd if he doesnt get a td early enough.

califano

Dalby eh!. Is he for real!.

Anyone else watching Cage Warriors 82 at the moment?!!

Yeah, minimal money to be made from MMA in the middle of the night.
They should just continue to cash in the deaf imsomniacs with that person who does the sign language.

I made no comment on the money that's in it for the TV station. I'm sure the advertisers on Five and Dave and Yesterday will be delighted to absorb a massive increase in costs as they seek to reach out to the hundreds of thousands, nay, millions of viewers who'll tune in to see the likes of Rampage enter a pie eating contest disguised as a fight.

By investing in more modern options like streaming? There's minimal money to be made for Bellator airing on Five or Dave or the like in the middle of the night.

The weird part is that they're owned by viacom who also own spike and channel five in the UK. They could just air it there live instead of whatever ****e repeats they usually air on Friday nights.

How else do they expect to grow their brand if they're not willing to negotiate a tv deal for four countries where MMA is growing massively? There's like 70 million people between us and the UK, that's not a negligible potential market.

Where is it possible to watch Bellator 175 online?

Did you see Ariel ask Coker about that and Coker didn't seem to know or care that over here it never seems to be live or on TV

Why would he care? Free to air TV market for Bellator in Ireland and the UK going to be very small.

Just seen that Sergei Kharitonov is fighting, it's been a while since I've seen him in action
