This might be the first time the ufc has a worse division than his oponnent in a long time

[Bangkok ready d1]

With yoel and anthony jhonson going to bellator its pretth clear that lhw division has potential to become the premiere lhw division in the sport, so many good guys in the top 10. I will be the last guy to shit on jan and honestly i would say a fight between him and this guys is 50%vs50% ods, but perception is reality i don't doubt he would be an underdog against both.

Rumble, Corey, Davis > Glover

Nemkov > Jan

Scientists are baffled by this thread

Yoel is pretty old already and we haven't seen Johnson fight in years. I don't think its the premier division although the division is looking solid for sure.

 

[AlanGregson]

Wut

Are you drunk? I do not understand most of your post. Yoel is 50 and we don't know how Rumble will be after years off. I'm still confident UFC has the better roster. They will for a very long time unless Bellator gets lucky and people choose sponsor money. Edit: Spellcheck

Pride heavyweight division was always better than UFC heavyweight division back when Pride was around

 

[Marko Polo]

Doesn’t really matter to be fair. Probably about 1% of the fan base has even heard of Bellator

I'd say they're pretty even, but I give the edge to UFC until there is more data. Hard to tell where Rumble is at after 3.5 years of inactivity. Machida is a good name, but kind of a corpse at this point. I'm excited to see Yoel at LHW, and I wonder if Gegard is willing to move up for some good fights.

Rakic, Ankalaev, Jan, Glover, Reyes, Santos, Prochazka, Oezdemir > Rumble, Yoel, Mousassi (maybe?), Machida, Davis, Nemkov, Bader, Anderson.

 

[GodKingCovington]

Only 13 of Bellators LHWs have won over 10 fights. Three of those being former UFC fighters. You're drunk, go to bed. Edit: grammar

Same as Strikeforce's HW division

 

[ignorant MMA fan]

Seems to me there's a bunch of fans who love to talk about Bellator's 205 division while citing names of former UFC fighters in their late 30's and early 40's. I'm not saying Bellator doesn't have any potential, but how long can it last with so many old timers? At the same time, UFC's 205 division is loaded with dudes in their late 20's. I think the UFC has a much better future ahead of them.

i wouldnt say a worse division--bellator has a few fights people want to see--they arent better tho--Yoel vs rumble is just a good fight--bellator scored--congrats, still down by alot

yeah right--everyone has heard of bellator--who is this? dana?

 

[Danespina]

For all those saying Yoel is old. The #1 contender Glover Teixeria is not much younger, nor has he aged as well.

And? You think people care about the other buns outside of the top 10 of the division? You may like it or not but if yoel keeps fighting in the same level, rumble is still as good as before and corey ( who was a top 10 in the ufc and is still around) we have even divisions at the very least, stop shilling for the ufc its not like they pay you something

If people dont care about anyone outside the UFC Top 10. They dont give a shit about Bellator. You're drunk dude. Go to bed.
