[don't ask]

I'm excited for this card! I keep thinking Patricky is on tomorrow's Bellator card.

 

[Luthien]

Heck it - I'm IN

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Collard’s Mortal Kombat tattoo is the coolest thing ever…

 

[don't ask]

I'm going to create some IN gifs for the prelims and then do my workout during the main cad. I really needed some MMA action today because it's been stresssfulllllll. (Why are people so dumb?)

I hope things get better for you and I hope today’s card provides plenty of action.

lol it's already better, but thank you! PBP threads with you guys are 75% of the reason i watch MMA these days.

I had hours of paperwork to do today to transfer custody of an idiot to the police. He decided that he found a dangerous chemical spill (about the size of a bathtub) and instead of notifying the proper unit he decided to get rid of it by burning it.

My unit is the emergency unit and we don't really have arrest powers beyond that of the ordinary citizen, even though we arrest dipshits all the time. Let me tell you: the amount of paperwork involved in putting someone under citizen's arrest for my employer is mountainous.

 

[don't ask]

Jesus Christ! Did anyone else just see a commercial with DAN THE FUCKING WOLFMAN or did I inhale dangerous chemicals today?????

 

[don't ask]

I'm excited to see Conan's kid cut loose tonight. Interesting that his base is wrestling.

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Both guys almost came out with the same walkout song..

 

[don't ask]

Oh, wow. This dude's from John Hackleman's Pit. I haven't seen one of their fighters in years.

 

[KDR by RNC]

Bruhs think they the main event.

Bruhs think they the main event.

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

If I fought, I would hate to have Beltran ref for me…

Just get hit in the eye with his beard while he is trying to take a closer look to see if a punch landed low…

 

[Paynebringer]

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Ruiz might get the upset…

He is fighting very well so far…

His right hand is landing…

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Ruiz’s right hand landing however he throws it…

Straight to the head…

Straight to the body…

Uppercut to the head…

Hook to the body…

 

[don't ask]

I'm liking the rights to the body. Don't see a lot of those.
