Okay so I have a bunch of cool MMA stories to share with you guys, but I'm kind of short on time. So I'm just going to throw it all in one post. Here goes:
- Michael Chandler defends his Bellator lightweight title in spectacular fashion with a lightning fast knock out against a very talented David Rickels. Is it bad that I want Bellator to go bankrupt in order to get this guy in the UFC?
- Bellator throws the entire MMA world for a loop when they tease the rumored matchup between Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson and Roy Jones Junior, but instead announce that Rampage will make his Bellator debut against fellow former UFC light heavyweight champion, Tito Ortiz. Wait what? I knew Tito was considering a comeback but I just assumed he meant a comeback to the UFC. I don't know if this is a direct screw you to Dana White or just an honest attempt to put together a good fight but I'm totally drinking the Kool-Aid. I guess I'm attending at least one of Bellator's Pay-Per-View events. Well done. Video below.
- So GSP vaguely hinted at an upcoming super fight. Yeah yeah yeah, we're all kind of sick of this super fight talk, are we not? However with Silva out of the picture (at least for now), it seems like the opponent he was alluding to was Benson Henderson, right? Hmmm interesting. Props to Ariel Helwani for ALMOST getting it out of him.
