Just Bleed Forecast™:

The good news is that the Main Card will likely feature no decisions. The bad news is that means more time on the air between fights for Josh Thomson and Jay Glazer. 

  • Yaroslav Amosov vs. Erick Silva:  These guys both have an 85% finish rate in their wins. 
  • Daley 80% finishes vs. Page 85% finishes.
  • Minakov vs. Kongo: Only question is whether Recent Kongo™ shows up (2 straight KO finishes, but only a 62% finish rate overall). No doubt 90% finisher Minakov will.
  • Nelson vs. Cro Cop:   83% vs. 92% finish rate!
  • Fletcher vs. Loureda: No really, why the fuck is this on the main card? Because Loureda (0-0) is kind of hot? And her 1-2 opponent (finished in both losses) is there to put her over, as if she's the Next Big Thing? Fletcher hasn't fought since 2015! FFS, Bellator, is this a bad joke, or what?

Any other way of watching it (sites we should definitely avoid)?

Juiced to the gills Eric Silva was a beast.

Yeah but it’s only on Dazn…luckily I have another 1 month free trial…if I didn’t, I don’t think I could justify spending $15 to watch the bellator and UFC events this weekend!

MVP/Daley will be awesome…

Roy Nelson shouldn’t even be fighting anymore…he’s looked terrible the last few fights…

Really excited to see what Minakov brings

How do we watch it in the states? 

14

Is the main card streaming on Bellator.com in some countries? Just wondering if I need to plan a last minute trip.

dazin/DAZN

Definitely on ROKU, SAMSUNG Smart TV’s or your PC. I know that for a fact or on a Droid Phone if you can figure out how to mirror it to some other shitbox. I don’t knwo shit about Apple’s garbage.

It is really pretty simple. It is NOT on the Paramount Network formerly SpikeTV just FYI.

Welp. Don’t have any of that.

its 2019 guys, you can find a way to watch if you want.

Alonzo_Harris_Monte_Carlo_1979 - I pay $9.99 for dazin. I've seen that others pay 14.99. That sucks.

$15/month for Dazn?! Fuck that nonsense…they really need to add the entire bellator library as once they do that, it will be easier for me to justify spending $10

The pacing of these prelim fights is amazing…one after another, no filler so far

Right kick hospital, left kick cemetery.
