News Bader vs Nemkov, Lima vs Mousasi Official for Bellator May 9

[chrisdiaz]

Im truly convinced Coker has no idea what hes doing now and just got lucky in strikeforce. Puts on shit shows back to back and disappears for 2 months only to have bellator like 3 nights in row. Then gone again. Its fucking irritating and really makes it hard to follow anymore. Just do two cards a month with a title fight on it, how ****ing hard is it?

I might make the drive from New Mexico to San Jose for my vacation. Looks to be a good card, always wanted to watch a Bellator live.

Will Mousasi's delusional fans claim that he is the best middleweight on the planet after beating an over-rated Lima?

There are some (not many, thankfully) people on sherdog that believe Lima could compete with Usman. lol

Lima KOs Matty stiff

 

[GIBLERTBAPTISTA]

Moose dominates Lima. Not a fan of this fight, just killing Lima's momentum. It's not like there isn't challengers for him at 170

Nemkov vs Bader on the other hand is a great fight

Lovato has had to put his career on hold because of a brain injury unrelated to mma.

“Lovato (10-0 MMA, 6-0 BMMA), recently was diagnosed with a brain condition involving “abnormally formed blood vessels,” typically in the brain or spinal cord, according to the Mayo Clinic. Bellator announced the news Monday.”

I think Thiago Alves had this same thing, he had some sort of surgery to make the abnormally formed blood vessels not be a threat to his health and was able to continue fighting, it took like 1.5 years though for him to come back.

I think the issue is Bellator lacks MWs.

 

[Fedor_Silva]

Lima by tko.

In the size department, guess they will be pretty equal

 

[Andre Xiong]

Lima is going to Rory-Macdonald his career by Mousasi.

Lima is a possible top3 WW in the universe Right now (arguably #2 behind Usman), this is poor management, high risk low reward (most people either consider Mousasi the best could-have-been or a journeyman, neither title is great). There’s nothing in Bellator for him, at some point u gotta suck it up and sign with the devil (Dana)

Salter vs Moose was the fight to make imo

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

Salter vs Moose was the fight to make imo

I don't think that would draw as many views as this would but if they did choose two MWs those would have been the ones to pick.

 

[lukeuidswords]

Nemkov is an absolute animal and Bader has been trying to duck him for a reason. Nemkov threw Phil Davis around like a ragdoll and will do the same to Bader. Cant wait to see him KTFO Bader. Bader is as good as dead. Nemkov coming to avenge his sensei the GOAT Fedor.

[Striker Fox]

Two of the most overrated fighters going toe to toe.

Moose by sheer size.

 

[Shoguns Prodigy**]

Easy lazy win by moose.

 

[GSP_37]

Lima is easy for no one. What else is on the card? I may need to get DAZN for a month to watch Mousasi.

[Bowel-forged Stool]

I think this fight will say a lot about how good Lima is. Moose is getting older, and if Lima is a legit top 5, I think he should win.

 

[wufabufa]

Awesome matchup

what happened to Lovato Jr.?

Some sort of brain injury/disorder. Decided to step away from fighting until he get's treatment.

 

[Joseph_McBride]

We'll see what the UFC does for 250, but Bellator will probably have the better card. UFC tends to mail in Brazilian ppv cards.

 

[TheOneAboveAll3]

so what happened to adesanya?

I think he fights in the UFC

 

[yougetKTFO]

Lima striking may actually be a touch better but Mousasi mixes everything well and will be extremely heavy on top. Hard to see Lima taking this.
