Should Bellator put a card at the same time that UFC 200?

[Sonny Qc]

Lots of people seem to be pissed about 200.

Could Bellator consider putting a free card grab some angry UFC fan?

Fight like idk
Bendo Vs Brooks/Chandler
Rampage Vs Tito
Lashley Vs MeatHead
Even Kimbo ffs.

Thought?

Possibly, but it's a pretty big gamble going head to head with them on a hallmark card. This could be one worth competing with if the lineup is great for Bellator.

I'd love to see a stacked Bellator card, but I can't think of a more challenging day for them to have it. Blow their entire wad, just to maybe reduce the UFC's PPV buys for one event by...10%?

Meanwhile, UFC goes right back to business as usual and Bellator has no bullets left to fire.

Anybody who would care enough to even watch Bellator, is going to be watching UFC 200.

Bellator would be wasting what talent they do have. The time for them to put on a big is when the UFC has a meh card on.

No.

They'll draw no eyeballs. Even if the UFC 200's full line up is shitty.

Lol at competing with a Connor vs Diaz, Aldo vs Edgar, Cain vs Browne- and possibly Lawler vs Condit card with Bendo, Lashley n Rampage.

Sherdog is not an accurate barometer of anything. Ufc 200 will sell twice as many ppvs as Ufc 198, which everyone loves

You're probably right.

Just to spite UFC and conor, great idea.
