Figured with the death of Bellator now's a great time to recount some of your fonder memories.

Here's mine, in no particular order

Chandler/Alvarez fights- all time classics

Hector Lombard smashing people- before he went to the UFC this dude was SCARY

Alexander Shlemenko- A fun Russian killing machine on a tear

Tito/Chael- Mainly the build-up and the best press conference of all time

Brennan Ward- a super fun, must see TV fighter. Smash or be smashed

The Coker freakshow (early) days- Gracie/Shamrock 3, Kimbo/Dada .... When Coker first took over, he brought some ridiculous over the hill fighters together and it was spectacular

Vitaly Minakov- There was a moment in time where the Russian heavy might be at all time great- Not so.

Pitbull's whole career

The rise of AJ Mckee
 
The 2013 and 2014 Bellator tournaments were my favorite. Shlemenko, Marshall, Ward, Minakov, Newton, McGeary, Koreshkov, Lima, Caveman, etc. Best era of Bellator IMO.

Early Coker era with the freak shows from 2015-2018. That was…..something. Got the most rating but I definitely wasn’t a fan lmao.

I really enjoyed Bellator from 2019-onwards to the PFL buyout.

PFLator’s one cool moment might have been Pitbull coming back against Jeremy Kennedy, the human blanket.
 
Chael Sonnen's press conferences
Michael Chandler's fights
 
Eddie and Chandler, Gallagher getting sweet chin music'd by Ricky, Warren getting flattened by Vila.
 


Eric prindle and Thiago Satos going 1-1 destroying eachothers balls







Eric fucking Pringles was violent as fuck! Whether it was a fight against a fat taxi driver, Cole Konrad, or a Brazilian's reproductive system. He brought it every time.
 
-Pat Curran hitting a Peruvian neck tie on the only notable Peruvian MMA fighter Louis Palomino
-Shahbulat Shamhalaev k.o'ing everyone to win tournament
-Patrico matches with Curran & Straus
-I enjoyed all the grand prix, turned some of their contenders to champions
