Bellator 123: Curran vs. Pitbull II 6:00PM ET Prelims/8PM ET MAIN CARD DISCUSSION

[VIP1349]

This crowd is fucking horrid.

Might be the worst crowd I've ever heard, I get most were comped probably not MMA fans but they witnessed a epic fight and boo. Sad.

not really sure why i am an idiot for scoring it 48-47 curran? I was wrong but three rounds we really close IMO and i scored them for curran

I scored it 48-47 Curran as well.

48-47? wtf?

Curran
Pitbull
Pitbull
Curran
Pitbull

Round 1 was a toss up for me.

 

[Kingz]

about right. I scored 2 for Curran, but the rounds i thought he won were the toss up rounds.

I love Curran's poise and patience in the cage. It's pretty rare but it works against him sometimes. It worked for him in the first fight with Pitbull.

Difference was the power shots and Pitbull's TDD. Curran did well peppering his face and probably landed more overall...but Pitbull landed big ones and was probably right there on the overall tally. Great fight.

Some really good fights to make for Pitbull and Curran now the the tourny format is through.

Your bias must be clouding your judgement or you really don't know how fights should be scored. The best you could feasibly have it is 48-47 for Pitbull in my mind. No way, no how Curran won three rounds of that fight. It's almost impossible.

Oh well...

[Skydome]

Great fight! Glad to have a new champ

 

[VicariousVice]

ha ha the striker getting rocked by king mo

Lol at "the striker".

 

[Lucifer Alpha]

Been waiting for Pitbull to hold the strap since Bellator Deportes. Hopefully he'll get some respect now.

 

[Tamriel Terror]

Horrible crowd but great and well deserved win by pitbull

 

[cooljay1622]

Lol at "the striker".

dang talk about quoting a post from like ten pages back, just to let you know jacoby fought in glory. noob.

Good fight, Pitbull won, looked good, one of teh better fights of the year.

Pitbull/Straus could be interesting but man who doesnt want to see Pitbull in teh UFC other than Slongkong?

Think about how awesome Pitbull vs Aldo, Mendes, Edgar, Cub, Zombie, McGregor, vs maybe LW like Pettis, Gil, Eddie, Cowboy, vs BW who could move up like Barao or TJ.

The possibilities from 135-155 are endless.

 

[Skydome]

Yeah the crowd was pretty terrible, great fight anyways.

 

[rockain4]

Sad for Curran but it was like clear cut win like it was the first fight. Two great fights from two great fighters. Congrats to Pitbull

III is going to end in a finish if it happens.

 

[ShoulderChoke]

Anybody notice the dude with Pitbull was wearing the Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughan glasses?

 

[VIP1349]

I hope they go Pitbull/Weichel next.

Even if Curran won that Straus fight he didn't earn a rematch and he doesn't after this either.

Let Weichel get the shot and Curran earn his way back, Pitbull did last time.

 

[Heat Vision]

I hope they go with Pitbull/Strauss

I hope they go with Pitbull/Strauss

Meh.

 

[Kingz]

Currans chin is very good, other guys would have been put to sleep in there.

Yeah...his chin blew me away when that punch Straus knocked him down with in the rubber match didn't put him to sleep.

His recovery is really quick. Usually if Pitbull gets you rocked you're through...but Curran seemed to get right back in it.
