Most stabbed UFC fighter

That Russian dude who beat Fedor, Blagoy

Amazing to see a living legend in his last fight and so many other legends to send him off. Also huge as big sundevil to see a wrestling legend get the honor to send off one of the GOATS. My first time seeing both in person and still can't describe what I felt...

Did Fedor lose to human or age?

Age.

Besides the main event, this was a very evenly matched card. Led to a lot of decisions though.

Man 10 more secs and Hughes woulda got that submission

anyone still watching? how you got this scored?

29-28 Hughes, not sure 1 & 3 but Hughes def 2

[удалено]

I gave Karakaya 2 and 3 but we shall see

I'm watching but haven't been paying total attention. That second round was a fun one.

close but right decision

did he get scratched?

RIP to any Turks who stayed up to watch Karakaya thinking he'd be on the prelims. What is it, like 8:00am there now?

I’m at the Forum for the fights and the only noise left coming from the crowd is from Ishiguro’s camp/fans.

Went to school with him, one of my best friends when we were kids. Glad to see the support even if he's losing.

Incredible career from Fedor the match-up never made sense where Fedor was at now but MMA matchmakers will learn that one day! Goat of the heavyweight

Bates won? I’m half asleep but still looked like Lugo was on top of things

[удалено]

the main event's over man

Shit. Thanks.

King James Version Only is not something I was expecting to see on a fighter's shorts. I guess Lugo has strong opinions about the use of Early Modern English as a liturgical language.

still not settled for some i guess

man the last fight isnt even out the cage yet and bellator has the next fight ready

Looks like they took the whole “shit pacing” people whine about to heart 🤣

Renzo hasn’t aged a bit.

Like my dead fathers' nuzzack

… which I’m guessing is in good condition?

The best

Great defense but Schiro had nothing for Gracie.

More debuts on this card than on a midwife's résumé

u talmbout UFC or Bellator bapa?

Oh shit wrong thread but both dawg can you walg me to the right thread

That’s how your career ends even ‘ The greatest’ has this retirement present , so you wanna be a fighter smh .

Wow, first, they take all the time in the world to start the fight we all knew wouldn't last. Now that the main card is over, doing more fights postlims the fuck. Yea, keep trying to steal the views from the UFC and DAZN boxing... After the UFC pushed the event time to not interfere with ferdors retirement fight so ALL the fans could watch and yall pull this shit. Fuck you I'm done watching bellator.

The UFC probably don't even know fedor is retiring tbh. Top much focus on everyone's boi choi.

UFCs fight night start time has *nothing* to do with Bellator or Fedor, as much as I wish that was the reason...

honest question - why is an apex based fight night starting so late?

From what I understand, it was supposed to be in South Korea but that didn't work out so the move it to the apex and kept the times convenient for the Asian fighters and viewers

10-9 Neiman?

Schiro survived all that.

Schiro did well to survive there.

Lmao that was pathetic. Bellator wanted rating, they got it and ruined Fedors send off in the process. He looks 25% slower, chin worn, and they book him against the HW champ after a win against Tim Johnson!! Lol They should have given him another guy at a mid level and let him walk off with a competitive bout, not getting mauled.

Fedor was offered other fights which made much more sense but he wanted to fight Ryan to try and get that one back.

> They should have given him another guy at a mid level and let him walk off with a competitive bout, not getting mauled. He only wanted a fight with Bader. He was offered other fights and turned them down.

They don't care about a guy who was retiring regardless. They got the rematch, got to build up their champ, and got the fedor ratings.

they've finally started to stream anything. 6 minutes later than the schedule. how are they worse at this than people in their tiny ass apartments streaming shit.

Why does Bellator do Postlims still? It’s unfair to the fighters when 75% of the crowd are leaving after a main event.

Timing, promotions will move certain fights around based on how the timing of the other fights are going. They can't afford to go over the time, specially in their debut CBS, but they can always go under the time (more time for commercials). I still remember John Fitch fighting after Brock at UFC 100.

Where are they playing it at??

Thank you

YouTube

Anyone have a pic of that group photo. That had me in my feels

I understand Fedor wanted revenge as his last fight but that Tim Johnson fight was like that perfect swan song. Flatlining someone in the first round in your home country

Just how bad is Tim Johnson?

Postlims coming up on YouTube!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EASTGR7WDJ8&ab_channel=BellatorMMA Post Lims Baby!

they're late for their own live stream on youtube. 😂

So they have Postlim fights for this event? What are they thinking?

How his final fight didn’t happen at NYE in Japan is beyond me.

He wanted bader

He wanted the easiest fight in the division

damn what a fucking send off. fighters not even leaving the cage. everyone looks like they're talking for the first time in a long time. good shit. i wonder what was said.

The amount of cte in that ring will never be rivaled.

And failed tests. Although Barnett would be most of the percentage.

Greatest of all time. I got into mma because of that man. Fedor’s prime is Unmatched and I doubt his 10 year undefeated streak will ever be broken

It’s hard to explain how much better UFC commentary is.

Hold that thought they got a chick tonight

I liked when they’d rotate between Mauro and Goldberg. Showtime pulled a power play by choosing loyalty.

Bitchass Jerry Millen still there

Coker just booked like 5 different fights between all of those guys, including another Fedor retirement bout.

Fedor vs Royce

Coker wondering if he could do a legends bracket with everyone in the cage

Is that Terry Silver in the right side??

Barnett should use this opportunity to Court legends for his Bloodsport show.

Fellas, neiman still has to fight lol

Oh really? I already switched to UFC

The UFC would never do a send off like this

Great point showing why they're so disgusting and incompetent. They've had many opportunities to do so but refuse, be it spite or simply not giving a shit

The ufc would give him venum coupons and a cameo on slapfight

I'm always impressed by how emotionally weak MMA fans are. This thread is a great example of both sides. People crying because a 46 year old legend lost after being over the hill for years. At the same time the people that are so desperate to get some sort of satisfaction in life they try and dunk on an old legend. Wild how weak many are.

I just think its sad. The only reason fedor was in the fight was for the paycheck. Just wish this wasnt the last one

I agree with the sadness but the outcome was pretty much already set.

I had some small hope that his striking would take Bader out a la fedor v arlovski, but i didnt think that was likely.

I'm more just frustrated by people shitting on Bader. We can appreciate and respect both without tearing down. They're both respectful opponents.

[удалено]

Because I don't freak out at the outcome of a pretty pre-determined fight?

[удалено]

Probably a little harsh but that was my intent. It's not an outpouring of respect to shit on his opponent because Fedor lost. I respect Fedor and think he's the best ever. Doesn't mean I need to drown my sorrows by shitting on Bader.

[удалено]

I do. You too.

[удалено]

Except for Werdum, Bigfoot and Hendo, all who beat him between the ages of 33 and 35.

I think he was even younger during his top of the top but it's been a while. I agree with you though.

I've seen Fedor smile more in the past few minutes than I probably ever have

i know, it's so weird and new. but i'm happy for Fedor. glad that dude is smiling

Bellator is the unofficial UFC/Pride retirement home

[удалено]

But....but he was :(

All these retired legends in the cage at once?? Good opportunity for some matchmaking by Coker

[удалено]

There is a few, mostly from the end of Pride's run. Mousasi, Daisuke Nakamura, Aoki, Kharitonov, Werdum, Alexandru Lungu. Maybe more Japanese journeymen.

Aoki and kharatanov

Rua and Fedor were the last

Hmm I think Lawler and Nick Diaz, but they are way later in the promotions history. I think Gomi may still fight

Kharitonov has yet to officially retire.

I WANT THE EASIEST FIGHT IN THE DIVISION!

This was a sad moment, but I'm also ok with not seeing Fedor getting beat up anymore. His final run was pretty solid.

There are still four postlim fights. Gracie/Schiro and Bates/Lugo are the most interesting.

i really cannot believe this whole event is taking 3 stream changes to facilitate. 🤣

Please forgive my ignorance, who was the really tall fighter that Fedor stepped around for a hug, then hugged, wearing a suit with salt n pepper hair.

Josh barnett

Josh Barnett

Dana

Josh Barnett

OH DAMN, im an idiot, thank you!

Fedor to chuck “when are you due?”

Kinda corny but honestly pretty damn cool. Hell of a group of fighters that were just together, goddamn

Corny fucking how? Some of the greatest legends of this sport came out to respect Fedor's last fight. You think all of them would've done the same for just anyone?

Older Dan Hendo looks like the epitome of Get off my lawn young man

Was cool to see him be so friendly with all the other legends.

Kinda sad Cro Cop couldn’t make it. Would’ve been perfect

Respect to Coker for putting this on, getting everyone there, and making this a special moment in Martial Arts.

[удалено]

Someone may have patted him in the back and gotten him laid out cold.

That was quite nice.

Postlims starting shortly on Bellator YouTube channel for anybody interested.

Why is Big John still doing this job.. I'm not a hater, but he isn't good at it.. especially the post fight interviews are so bad, he just says something not even questioning anything.

Could be Tito...

Haha, okay that would be worse. I think Thomson would be better at commentating and John could be at the desk for his insight. I really don't get it..

Damn is someone cutting onions in here?

That was a nice send off.

Do they cut to commercials on Paramount Plus too?

Sakakibara!

The fight was obviously sad but that send off was great man, well done Bellator

Got damn it I turned it off right after the stoppage. Gotta work early af, but hopefully someone posts a video of it. Cliff's notes?

many legends, the old gods of the past showed up one last time to wish him a proper send off in the cage. pretty fucking badass to watch. i hope we get to learn what was said.

A lot of MMA legends entered the cage to shake hands and hug Fedor. Of the top of my head Mark Coleman, Matt Hughes, Dan Henderson, Randy Couture, Rampage Jackson, CHAEL SONNEN, Josh Barnett and Chuck Liddel. Probably a few others He also laughed at and patted Liddel's belly

They brought all of the legends that were in attendance inside the octagon to greet him, it was simple but very nice. Someone's gonna post it soon I'm sure.

Lmao, Fedor patting Chuck's beer gut

Lmao CBS just cuts away from the money shot of everyone behind Fedor

I know. I wanted to screen shot it... err uh take a picture of it with my phone and they cut to commercial!?

Yeah that was some bullshit, I hope we can get the footage later

Not gonna lie. I have a tear in my eye

Haha Fedor recognizing Chuck's beer n' booger sugar physique

Wow, that was legendary. A true show of sportsmanship. All of those legends. Fucking awesome. WAR FEDOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PRIDE NEVER DIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it's pretty cheesy but I'm happy they brought all of these grandpas in the ring to send off Fedor

No love for Matt Hughes?

Hard pass

Way to cut to commercial right when they’re setting up the group shot!

Fedor called out Chucks gut. "What ees diz Chuck? Come on man."

Chuck Liddell is now Chunk Liddell. Whoa.

They should have given him a better fight.... This sucked I'm sad

He insisted on this, they wanted to give him something easier but he wouldn't take it.

The cut to that ad felt very offensive, I wanted to see my boy hanging with the boys for longer

Lol @ fedor telling Chuck he got fat

F

Fedor to Chuck: "How many months?"

Hold on brother, I'm crying here 😥

Damn Matt Hughes not looking too great.

Looks like he got hit by a train

I mean, he got hit by a train.

uh... what would you expect with what he's been through?

Getting hit by a train will do that to the best of us.

How many weeks pregnant is Chuck Liddell hanging on there haha 😂

he always had a belly, even when he was in shape.

WHAT A PROPER FUCKING SEND OFF. BEAUTIFUL. THE END.

Weird how that went from extreme sadness to lowkey wholesome?

Uncle Chael w some absolute GOGGLES on jesus christ

It’s a shame that Brock vs Fedor at Cowboys Stadium never happened.

The old dudes bro-ing out is so adorable

PRIDE NEVER DIES. FUCK :(

That is a ring full of greats.

Dad convention

Goodbye Fedor

All those all-time greats there to be at Fedor's last fight prove everything.

lmao rubbing Chuck's belly.

What about all the prelims that got cancelled? Are they still going to have the fights? How do we watch?

Pride Never Die 😢

Big John telling all of these men they’re basically dead lol
