cool one less chick fight too, prelims do looked stacked but im a little confused with their bout order. Either way good card.

Guessing they are starting out first so they Can air them all on their webstream. The later ones always happen after the card and don't get streamed

So, I can't watch the prelims live.. no Ruth, no Davis and no Fortune.. the only ones I am interested in... because Bellator prelims are not available in my region.. thanks, Bellator

Any experience with free VPNs? Not that you should have to go through with that, but its pretty easy

You should be able to download their app, I believe that is no region blocked, I could be wrong though. Tahts how I watch without tape delay.

Good idea, I haven't tried. But will give it a shot! Thanks for the idea.

Not really, I usually watch PPVs through vipbox or something like this hahah... if the Bellator prelims are on this, it would be good. I don't suppose you know of any free VPNs?

Prelims are more interesting than the main

Everyone who is anyone made weight for their fights. Ruth, Fortune, Young, and Davis make the prelims of this card more interesting than the main.

* Bout has been canceled

I can't believe they are jobbing Jamal out to a legit prospect so soon in his career. He really belongs at 185 :-(

What is Jamal's backstory? Friends with the guy or see longterm potential that you don't derailed?

At least it is a fight between two guys who are MW/LHW tweeners just based on their previous weighins.

Yea old training partner when I had delusions of fighting. Solid kid bust his ass but he is still real young as a pro and maturing. Lots of potential if he keeps his head on straight. I just hate seeing him get matched against a undefeated guy lol.

I'm in, no interest in the main card though

I really want to see MVP vs Davis or Ruth in the opening round of the WW tournament

You should tune in for the Juan Archuletea fight. He is always in a exciting fight and beat the living hell out of his last opponent.

Download the app you can stream every event even prelims just need to verify your cable provider.You can watch tape delayed cards live too but with DAZN deal tape delay is a thing of the past.

Anyone see the weigh ins on these girls? Those are two good looking women for mma fighters.
