pretty stacked Main Card

Yeah, it's a pretty sweet main card. But, nobody really watches Bellator at this site, aside from 2-3 people that I know of, which is too bad cuz there's some great prospects and gem match ups in Bellator, especially since this current season that we're in, which is when they moved to Spike TV and started putting on some sweet events to please the fans.

I have a story about Karo.

I went to this really shitty strip club with a friend once because they were showing a WEC card that had Manny Gamburian on it. I think it was Manny vs Aldo. Anyways this stripper with an Armenian accent ( I know Armenians from live poker obv ) sits next to me starting up Convo. I kinda drop hints that I wanna watch the fights to her, and she looks surprised like oh you came for the fights, my cousin Manny Gamburian is fighting tonight. She then went into detail about who shes related to manny & karo

I was kinda buzzed at this point, and started being nice like oh thats cool he's awesome. Hell of a fighter, blah blah blah. Then for some reason I tell her, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure he's going to get punted into dreamland.

She was pretty pissed. I think on the verge of going full Armenian rage mode.

Thinking back on it, I wish I had said right after, " So, you up for a dance? "

pretty unpredictable fight

ShamWow is basically looking for a flash KO. Curran is better than him in most areas, and is bigger with a guaranteed 5 rounds worth* of cardio.

I think Marshall will get the upset win if Cooper wears his knee braces.

Richman should lose.

Hawn should win. Karo's only way to win is via submission.

I should've said close fight, not unpredictable
I think Shamhalaev has a decent striking advantage early in the fight and if Curran fights as he fought his last fights he is going down
but since there's no props in this event I didn't find much value to bet in this fight

Keep an eye on Curran's line, it's getting better.

The Bellator lines always go wild on fight-day. A bunch of people, including myself, were able to get Curran at -105 on Tuesday, which means there's a bunch of people who are high on ShamWow cuz of his recent wins, which means there will be a lot of late bets on ShamWow since he's +170.

Once Curran gets to -130 or better, I'm gonna lay another big bet on him.

devastating blow by Marshall WOW.

Doug Marshall $29.00 to win $73.40

Marshall reversed my loss from Toronto getting owned by Philadelphia earlier.

WHEN YOU MESS WITH THE RHINO, YOU GET THE HORN!

better Frodo win his fight or I'm a poor man

30-27???? wow I had it 29-28.

I'm glad the judges saw it like I did, 30-27.

I was thinking they might have given the 2nd round to Richman cuz he got that take down where he was on top for 20 seconds and literally laid there and did nothing.

EASY MONEY BABY!
