I did not even know this was one, thank you very much.

This is an odd channel so I missed it in the guide when I was looking.

Just going to go with OSP and Gadelha. I can’t recognize any of the other fighters.

Gonna take Pitbull, Ayala and Larkin for Bellator.

I thought it was on tomorrow, of course it is tomorrow in Japan.

Takanori Gomi, the Fireball kid, is a legend. But 38 years old and the loser of 4 in a row. I’m taking him anyway over Dong Hyun Kim (not Stun Gun, a different one)

So hard for me to remember the American fighter names, literally impossible for me to get Asian names down ><

I do remember Gomi though, have been watching MMA long enough for that one to have somehow stuck.

I’m picking against the UFC guys in Bellator though. Much as I love Henderson and Nelson, need them to show me something.

Seems like the only one who has come in with a bang has been Rory Mac.

I should have picked Saki, I was hesitant cause this was only his 2nd MMA fight, the first being a loss in 2004. Kickboxer.

That was an impressive fight.

He’s a very strong striker.

It was looking like he mighta gassed himself there, then BOOM!

Good stuff, I have never seen him fight before.

Yep.

And his opponent had taken quite a bit of abuse before that landed too.

Poor Gomi though.

Gomi has lost his last five fights in the first round. His last win was in April 2014. Yikes!

lol i see i got one wrong already after reading the thread- Gomi- too bad- was one of my favorite fighters for a long time- but as i mentioned, I think he’s close to being done- Hate to see the greats get to that point- but happens to all of them eventually unfortunately-

From Twitter

“Gomi vs BJ Penn: the loser has to watch the other have 5 more unnecessary fights”

LOL but also :( , those guys are legends.
