LOL at Tito's claim claim of being 100% healthy.
 
I have $100 on Tito to win. Couldn't resist at +440 with that big size advantage.
 
As much as I dislike Frank Shamrock he actually does a good job in those backstage prefight interviews. Wouldn't mind seeing those in the UFC aswell.

The UFC does those back stage interviews all the time with Ariel Helwani, Karyn Bryant and that other female interviewer.
 
Just saw weigh-ins:

Ivanov looked VERY good

Mo in incredible shape

Rampage looked best in years

Chandler is a specimen
 
does ivanov have a bad chin or something, volkov is +100 but his itd is only +120, decision +500. I'm putting a flier on decision parlayed with rampage like ive been doing with everyone lol
 
I get that Ivanov's story is quite incredible. However I'm sick of hearing about it. The first time it was interesting , 2nd time, alright w/e... I'm over it now.

Not that close to the fights tho, right? Might obviously be pre-taped but it reminds me of boxing where they do them right before the fighters get ready. I mostly see post fight interviews from Ariel but might just be missing out since I'm not american and have channels like Fox.
 
The UFC doesn't do this shit once the PPV starts. They go fight to fight to fight.
 
I am liking the flow of the ppv so far. The promos have been pretty good. Better than watching repeats of prelim fights imo.

If he wins here prepare to hear it 50 more times.

"THE DUDE WAS LITTERALLY DEAD AND IN A CASKET GETTING BURRIED, BUT HE BUSTED OUT AND FOUGHT HIS WAY BACK TO THE BELLATOR CAGE."

-Bjorn Rebney, before Ivanov - Minakov :D

Yes, they often do fighter interviews live from back stage before the fights while they are getting ready or even after the fights before they hit the shower on Fox Sports 1 & 2 or the Fox network usually when they come in or out of commercials.
 
Hilarious how the odds for Chandler by Decision is +250, but the odds for either fighter winning by to Decision is +275. What does that say about Brooks?

And he'd walk out with the Undertaker's theme song. Or better yet, he'd be rolled out to the cage in a casket.

Ah okay, I basically just get a "loading screen" in between all those fights - sometimes for like 10 min. Really breaks up the flow of the card, so I'm digging this.
