When does spike start showing the K-1 events...or did that fall through?

King Mo against Newton next week....Newton's a brawler/pressure fighter...Mo had better take him seriously.


And that promo got me hyped for the Rad Martinez fight next week.

K-1 deal fell through, Spike is reportedly negotiating with Glory for kickboxing

Yeah, another good show from Bellator. Some fun fights as I wasn't expecting that much from the MWs. Bellator should have done a BW tourney this season instead of FW since they already had enough challengers for Curran. Now Dantas has no challenger and will have to wait until they do another tourney, most likely for their summer series. Very nice rebound win for him, showing off a nice job and lacing Galvao with their uppercut.

I always order the PPV's but I know a guy on here offers a HD streaming link for the Coli. Does anyone know who that is? I'm wondering if he gets Fuel TV and can make one for the card tomorrow morning.

Don't forget the card is in England so it starts at 12:15pm ET/9:15am PT.

Today, MMA Opinion received news from a Q&A that Dana attended with fans in London that he has now switched his stance on testosterone replacement therapy from “it’s legal!” to ‘TRT is cheating, and we’re coming after anyone that uses it:

“TRT has become a way for people to cheat. If this is what your normal level should be and then you have guys training at huge levels (of testosterone) for their whole camp then tapering down to get to normal levels before the fukking fight, that’s cheating, and I don’t like it anymore.”

“There are plenty of guys in the UFC that are naturally gifted and talented fighters. If you’re testosterone levels are too low then you’re probably too old to be fighting, stop fighting! “

“We can test everybody. I’m telling you right now, if you are using testosterone replacement therapy, get ready motherfukkers because we’re going to test the shyt out of you.”

Jorge Santiago doesn't stand a chance, why would he take on Nelson?

totally disagree. He has a great chance. I think it's going to be a very good fight but a it could backfire for Joe Silva like it usually does. Santiago is legit at 170. What's crazy is Gunnar is still bigger. He's big as shyt if you saw the weigh ins. I didn't know he was that big.

It was funny, on twitter the writers were all tweeting "holy shyt somebody tell Gunnar he's a LHW."

 

[RudySpanish]

Card is starting off a little slow some of the fighters seem a little timid IMO

 

[The G.O.D II]

Is this on Fuel TV website?
