Bellator LHW division is amazing

Ok buddy, go watch old man Glover (who got beat up by every Bellator LHW) fighting the unstoppable champ Jan <45> and Santos who was destroyed by Moose.

Hold on a minute here, you're shitting on old man Glover, meanwhile praising Bellator for having Yoel Romero (43), Machida (42), Manhoef (44)?? Yah, that makes a whole lot of sense. Not to mention Rumble, Bader, Davis, McGeary, are all over 36 and not in their prime anymore. And no Glover did not get "beat up" by every Bellator LHW, he actually knocked Bader out. He lost two decisions to Davis and Corey, who BTW has been knocked out so many times I've lost count lol......the guy who lost to Gian Villante. Two can play that game buddy, Jiri finished your LHW champ.

The UFC actually has some legit top LHWs moving up like Rakic, Jiri and Ankalaev, Jan is a dam good fighter, who BTW just sent Corey Andersons packing out of the UFC with a KO he's still feeling. And they got solid prospects moving up like Hill, Crute, and Jung.

Bellator has a good division, but you're highly over rating their talent. Most of the guys on the list wouldn't even be top 15 in the UFC.
 
I'm so glad DAZN and Bellator split. I wouldn't be watching Bellator if they hadn't.
 
I’m excited for roided up Rumble vs roided up Yoel...

The rest is meh...

You're overrating the UFC LHW's.
Jiri beat a green Nemkov (that was his 6th mma fight) he also lost to Karl back then. Nemkov is not the same fighter, he would destroy Jiri easily right now.
King Mo slept Jiri bro, Jiri only beat a shot Mo later in 3rd round while Andrew Kapel managed to beat that same shot Mo in 1 minute. I mean if you are impressed by a LHW champ that got a split decision over a washed up Jacare, good for you.

Didn't Rumble KTFO Glover in 10 seconds? You're forgetting that one

What a streeeetch to be angling Romero as a hot item at this point, and to be touting Melvin Manhoef (he's got to be mid 40's at this point!?!) along with guys beat out of the UFC like C Anderson, Phil Davis, and the Moose (who's still got it imo). Their division looks fun, but to be getting hard that it's "better than the UFC" now, while touting it's washed-up former UFC fighters, comes off as desperate.
 
I wonder how Bellators LHW division is better with old UFC cast aways. Besides Corey all those guys kept losing and are out of their prime. UFC n Dana haters maybe?

Why you left out the guys in their prime? Bellator is full of them. Their LHW division is way better than UFC's and everyone knows that.

I'm with you. I hate these threads where people can't say something rational/un-emotional, like: "Bellator's LHW is looking good" or "Bellator's LHW is catching up to the UFC" . . . they have to go full partisan and say "Bros, LOL, Bellator's LHW division fucking POWNS the UFCs and ur lol retarded lol if you think otherwise".

I get it, Bellator is getting an exciting (albeit retirement-age and on the decline) injection into their mediocre LHW division. Great. But let's not get hyperbolic about it.

I see, so Nemkov is not the same fighter now, but Jiri is. . . double-standards make the best rational arguments.

I'll second Ninja Scroll! Great character designs, divine violence. How gory/wonderful is baki the grappler, and what's wrong with the Netflix one?

All the guys you listed are being replaced by random guys from the contender series. Also Corey was on a 4 fight winning streak before Dana wanted him to turn into a striker against Jan. Phil Davis beat prime Glover and was only released because Dana didn't like his grappling style.
 
UFC had Jones beating every lhw on both ufc and bellators roster for almost a decade. You saying ufc is weak right after a long time champ vacates is lame. Let the division find its footing. UFC had its first real champ since Jones, this is what happened to mw/ww when Gsp/Silva vacated. Give it another year.

Im not a fan of how they did it...got away from the martial code/abilities type stuff and realistic gore of the original and focused abit too much on unrealistic gore and 3d renders not a fan of mixed anime shows if its drawn stay drawn if 3d then stay 3d ...but thats just me...
