Mostly hoping Jim Miller gets out of this relatively healthy so he can be on UFC 300.

I need Ankalaev to win for my champ prediction, but Walker winning would be more fun. I think Ankalaev will win, though. For as long as the last fight lasted, Ankalaev was more than holding his own on the feet and he has the advantage on the ground. Walker is of course dangerous.

I actually really like this card for an APEX fight night

FINALLY

Other than the main event I prefer this one to next week's PPV

Allen vs Movsar should be very interesting but yeah the ppv is looking pretty weak overall. Losing Jan vs Rakic and Ulberg vs Reyes hurt it too

Guys weight misses are starting to become a problem

That's brutal for Kape. He was setup to maybe get the next title shot with a win if the timing worked out for him.

Ugh

 

[Bunk Moreland]

For a guy who's got such a big mouth when he fights fall through this isn't a good look.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

A solid apology from Kape... by saying his opponent didn't take the fight even though he would have. Lol....

 

[CDJ]

what a f***ing loser Kape is

 

[CDJ]

A flyweight who isn’t a loser is Joshua Van. Kid is legit, just make sure you don’t pick him to win by first round KO lol

Yeah he's one of those undercard MVPs that always makes fights fun

Turns out Tom Nolan is a fraud

 

[CDJ]

I was trying to yell through the tv at him to get his chin down almost immediately. Reminds me of Sam Patterson, enters striking exchanges like a dickhead with his chin pointed to the f***in heavens

Goodbye parlay

 

[CDJ]

Westin Wilson, he’s…..tall!

Westin Wilson, he’s…..tall!

Gotta be one of the worst dudes in the company, and now that I said that I'm expecting another fraud check

 

[CDJ]

Massacre

 

[MMC]

Cut him

 

[MMC]

Silva is an interesting dude

 

[hockey20000]

uhh oh this silva dude seems like abit of an oddball lol

So much bullshit filler between prelim fights. Best thing about Bellator was the way they breezed through them
