Ben "Killa B" Saunders defeated Chris Cisneros this past Saturday and earned his place in the next round of Bellator's Welterweight Tournament.
I got the chance to sit down and talk with Ben after his win. We chatted about his fight, his love of cheesy martial arts movies, and his new found love of Netflix.
Check it out....

Oh hi interview lady, I know you from your BTD piece. Garv lets you out from under his nose (pun intended) to go play with others?!?!?!? Sweet!
Liked the interview, Ben's got a ton of personality. Met him here and there a couple times around Orlando, I am pretty sure he is the largest human being on the planet who can make his body weigh 170 lbs. Good work, I enjoyed watching.
- McCorkle not really my hero.

Hmmm.... Interview Lady?? I prefer Kristen, or Armbar-B-Cutie, or even Lois Lane. And thank you McCorlkeISNOTmyhero.
I think Saunders is def going to be the one to watch.
PS-
I heart the GARV, I covered the ROC for theGARV.com on Friday, then Bellator for MMARanked.com on Sat
I'm all over the place.

lol
I'll keep that in mind, I'm not too good with names though so no promises. I mean no harm.
Think we're looking at Killa B/Lima in the final.
Well done, Kris! Did you know on TUF6, Saunders coach, Matt Serra, said Ben had what it takes to make it to the top?
Big Ben Saunders fan, here!!!
TTT 
Kristen joined our team a little while ago and we have been very impressed. Her love for MMA is through the roof, and we are glad to have her helping us out.
Thank u Verinder. Love, addiction, obsession...
And thanks for having me.
And thanks HULK. Serra can def spot a Potential champ in the making. Can u say Chris Weidman?!?!

Rumble can make about 174 consistently, and I think Ben may be a little larger, he's freaking huge.
Bet on Cameron Befort over McCorkle, zipplokk should consider it a personal favor.

Actually I think he's only like an inch Taller than Johnson but he's so long he appears frickin huge. I felt like a midget next to him, and I'm a strapping 5'4", with a walk around weight of a buck fifteen.

Yup, think you're right (insert name which you would like to be referred here). When you see him in the cage rehydrated, he looks like he's 2 weight classes bigger than some WW's, gigantic. I know Rumble is a monster at WW as well, but if I had to put a dollar on it, I think Saunders is slightly bigger. He's not just long, he's a thick dude (beep?).
Maybe interview some featherweights or something next time and you can feel like the monster you have always been meant to be?
PS - read first paragraph again, no need for a question mark...definite beep.
Nice interview. I liked his face after the LOST spoiler lol. His favorite fighter is Sagat from Street Fighter. Cant wait to see the next round of the torunament
Yes I can... "CHRIS WEIDMAN!!!"
Thanks Bloodstorm. I know, his face was pretty funny, like I just kicked his puppy. The thing is, I actually have only seen a few episodes of LOST. Enough to know a plane crashes, there's a white boy w an Afro who doesn't seem to lose weight despite living on fruit, and you can still look stunning while stranded on a island.
Corkle- I think maybe bantam is more my size.
BloodStorm - I know I was genuinly confused, like did she really just say that... lol. I kinda got agitated for a second... but then said it's just a TV show. lol
But when u spend 45 minutes an episode and i was on season 4 out of 6. That is a lot of time spent on something that just got crushed... hahaha kinda seems like a waste of time spent. ='(( lol
& Kris - I realize you didn't see the show much... but it was a very popular show while being aired and because you knew a bit about it and the plot somewhat... chances of a friend telling you or you reading or hearing about the ending... means you probably sub conciously knew what happened and that is just as bad as watching it all and telling me. Just saying... ;)
What you said as a spoiler was one of my theories... I have yet to even watch another episode cause I am contimplating whether it will be a waste of my time...
Don't worry I still luv you! :D But for future reference when someone brings up a movie or tv series and says numerous times that they don't want to know what happens... you probably shouldn't tell them what you thought you heard happend... lol ;P
But you are awesome! Great interview. Look forward to the next one! =)

Oh snap!! I think I feel worse than that Skooter character who got slammed by Hendo. I swear I don't even know if that's the ending!!! I was just messing with you. Was I the first to say that?? I think they all live happily after. I'm so sorry. Wait not good enough..
*ahem, clears throat....
My Dearest Ben,
I profusely apologize for telling u the possible ending of Lost. Please forgive me, I promise never to tell u the ending of any show, movie, series, book, comic strip, etc ever again.
Scouts honor...
With My Deepest Regrets and Apologies,
Kristen AKA Armbar-B-Cutie
LOL @ "HENDOed!"
^^^ I think it's HendOWNed actually.
TTT
