Listen, I lost money on King Mo moneyline Mo and King Mo decision bets. But I don't think it was a robbery. I can see the third round going to Rampage.

how???? he landed like 3 punches
 
It looked like a robbery but isn't this how we want MMA to be judged? Running away and avoiding the fight, getting takedowns and doing absolutely nothing with it should not result in a win.

If that was in the UFC, King Mo would've won for sure though.
 
mo's face made me laugh so hard then, even though i lost money on him
 
I think their needs to be an investigation into Bellator and the "decisions" that happen in that organization. Off hand i can think of five really terrible decisions this year alone.

You realize that the UFC doesn't appoint the judges, right?

Really? I won money on Rampage and don't think there's an argument to be made.
 
Dude, I'll NEVER bet or watch BELLATOR again. I Swear to God. I know I've said I'd never bet it before. But for real, I'm out.

The Ill Will decision was crazy but the Rampage win was the biggest robbery I have EVER seen in MMA and I've watched since 1993 or when Royce fought UFC 1

I'm disgusted. I can take losing, but being blatantly cheating. That's a joke man.

Fast forwarding through the fight now... Rampage did nothing in that third. Mo at least had some pretty lengthy time in top position.

I can only agree to this. But there needs to be a norm. I am mostly shocked that all 3 judges gave it to Rampage.
 
Believe me, I wish Mo won, I had him on his moneyline and by decision. The momentum just seemed to shift to Rampage to make it reasonable that the judge's award him round 2 & 3. I may have to watch it again on a stream that's not quite so choppy though to see more clearly just how many punches connected. I mean did Mo even land a single punch on Rampage in the third or did he just have some top control?
 
and even crazier...how the fuck was that a unanimous decision?!?!?!

Well obviously.

The judging in Bellator is dodgy to say the least though. I don't care who technically appoints judges in any organization, it's too consistently terrible in Bellator to just be the odd incompetent judge.
 
Man that one cost me hard. I won big on Tito but lost lot of it back on Mo. Also had a fun $20 parlay wit Tito and king Mo to win close to $300. Bellator is shady as fuck
 
The Rampage hometown crowd was likely a factor. The crowd roaring when Rampage landed his punches could have created the illusion that the punches were more significant than they actually were.
