You guys know if the fight will air on YouTube live too ?

Main card is Showtime in the US, Okko in Russia, BBC iPlayer in the UK and Virgin Media Sport in Ireland. I believe other countries, it's on the Bellator YT. I think that includes Canadia, but don't quote me on that.

 

[helax]

Also IN now in case I'm not around early tomorrow

 

[spooNN]

Oh man, breakfast MMA.

 

[GueseGuy]

War Fedor!

 

[LoveMyMMA]

WAR Usman Nurmagomedov! One of the top prospects in all of MMA.

 

[usernamee]

You know what, I think I'm gonna catch this one. Bellator in Russia is pretty cool. I hope it's a packed arena. Nice early start as well.

 

[The Good The Bad The HBK]

I really don't want to see another Bader/Fedor fiasco

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Minakov looks pretty soft there.

Tim looks so much bigger than Fedor.

 

[Kudo]

Imagine if somebody had said in 2005 that Fedor would still be fighting at age of 45

 

[BEATDOWNS]

War Fedor

 

[Recurring Nightmare]

War Fedor

It’s me - Brian!

 

[usernamee]

Johnson LnP for all rounds and Fedor winning a split dec?

Just don't get KOed or badly hurt Fedor, that's all I ask
