Bellator 182 - Koreshkov vs Njokuani - New York

[EzFlyer]

I got the prelims to work on my phone via Chrome.

Lahat acted like he won, while Henry looked dejected after the fight.

that's corrales' style. he's a really casual dude

 

[EzFlyer]

bahhhh bell-nogueira, show us rainey-stevens!

hopefully bell goes nuts so it's a fast fight

 

[EzFlyer]

nogueira's bjj is legit

 

[Oblivian]

4/5 so far with only loss on Lin. Hoping this continues into the main card!

bahhhh bell-nogueira, show us rainey-stevens!

hopefully bell goes nuts so it's a fast fight

I never saw Nogueira b4, but Bell is horrible. All she has is a solid stare down at weigh-ins.

 

[EzFlyer]

they'd better show stevens-rainey , 35 mins till main card

 

[EzFlyer]

tiny hedge on my over on this fight. still on it for a unit.

 

[mmaHobbyist]

got your wish

 

[EzFlyer]

man i'm nervous, such a size differential

 

[EzFlyer]

stevens' right hook missed by a foot...

 

[EzFlyer]

damn tough round to score. rainey looking menacing but only landing a few things... stevens the takedown and side control for the last 30 seconds but did nada..

i guess i'd edge it to rainey. but who knows.

 

[EzFlyer]

rd 2 rainey's for sure.

20-18 or 19-19

 

[Oblivian]

I think it is 1-1. Rainey postured a lot in Rd 1, but he didn't land much. The leg kicks were pretty significant.

 

[EzFlyer]

obviously i'm part of the minority, but i loved this card, despite the fuckin bs cut stoppage in the pineda fight.

super glad to have high level mma back after a few weeks off.

 

[EzFlyer]

oh man, clenched my butthole hardcore on that O2.5

 

[EzFlyer]

30-26 rainey. gave him 10-8 rd 3. rd 1 was close. so 29-27 is fine, too.

 

[Oblivian]

Curious to hear the Rd 1 score. It gives a good idea on how the fights will be scored IMO.

 

[EzFlyer]

wow, surprised all 3 did give rd 1 to stephens

all 3 did give 10-8 rd 3 appropriately

 

[EzFlyer]

get a takedown = you win the round if stevens-rainey rd1 scoring is any indicator.. and it gives me the ammo i needed to make the play i've been eyeing:

koreshkov -3.5 -150. just a unit or so. i'm aware some of you are on chidi, but i think koreshkov gets takedowns when he wants/needs them here

Gon be a good end to this card
