What kind of bullshit is 265lbs- Adam Maciejewski (13-6-1) vs. Prince McLean (7-8)? Those types of fights shouldn't be on a card of a promotion trying to compete with the UFC.

Unless your name is Mark Hunt.

 

[po_thead]

I'm a little surprised the number on Rampage is so big!

 

[Meathead Jock]

Looking forward to it. Will be at the show!

I'd rather see it than the last 2 fights on the main card lol. I'm a sucker for HWs.

 

[blackbox90s]

The kharitonov - gormley fight is the most interesting.

 

[melvinj0]

The kharitonov - gormley fight is the most interesting.

If Kharitonov doesn't get an early KO it will like be an extremely slow and boring fight.

Honestly I am too but 7-8 is rough man. But HW fights always jump out to me. I'd rather watch two HW's I've never heard fight sometimes over some others.

 

[fermaPY]

Really like the Sanchez vs Galvao fight, could be a solid and entertaining bout, i was looking to see Lahat fighting someone like Pineda or Lawrence, even Pat Curran, I'm a little bit disappointed wiht his opponent

[Andrey Kamensky]

Holy shit Page is heavy AF!

 

[blackbox90s]

I'm more interested in seeing if sergei can make it past the first minute this time around. I'm not sure who bellator can pair him with if he loses again.

 

[LHWBelt]

Honestly I am too but 7-8 is rough man. But HW fights always jump out to me. I'd rather watch two HW's I've never heard fight sometimes over some others.

I was intrigued to watch that Adam guy before he lost to Minakov in 20 seconds but I'd still be interested in seeing him fight.

 

[chunglii]

I, for one, am grateful for the hilarity and entertainment that Bellator HW prelim fights bring.

 

[Falconkick]

The main card is pretty solid. Hoping Sanchez can get past Galvao. Sergei should not have any problems with Chase same old game plan of inside low kicks - jabs.....lets hope he doesn't have any problems getting by that because it will be a fucking long boring fight. King Mo won that first fight. I bought that PPV. Mo won he got fucked twice in Bellator now I thought...He beat Davis and he beat Rampage

Anyways new season of Trailer park boys hits Netflix tomorrow so its all TPB than the fights cannot wait

Looks are obviously deceiving but for a 7-8 guy he physically looked the part of a legit heavyweight fighter.

 

[greenskye23]

Would really really like to see lahat step up and face the best in the 145 division , this fight hes in is pointless

 

[Devilboy86]

Just a stay busy fight for Lahat... I'm sure you will see him get a test on next israel card when they go there

 

[frandie2b]

Sergei needs that win bad.

His last fight didn't show how good he his. He got caught, shit happens.

 

[shonuf]

yeah. that sucked. Sergei is one of my favorite fighters but he's in this weird area of being a sort of kickboxer and part time mma fighter. I don't think he trains too much outside of just beating each other up in sparring. Hope he gets a highlight win tonight.
