If you’re not sick of looking at my stupid face and my opinion’s check out the short interview/photoshoot I did for Time Out Magazine, and do yourself a favor and read some of the other fighters interviews because there’s some real gems in there.

Nice!

On a related note, we hope to get some pro MMA (and specifically Bellator MMA) in New York sometime in the near future. It’s just such a shame that it’s one of the few states where our favorite sport can’t be practiced beyond the amateur level.

In the meantime, if you live in New York, make sure you support these amateur bouts. Also,  contact your Assembly representative and let them know you want this bill to get to the floor for a vote.

Let’s do this, New York!


Marcin Held’s first Bellator MMA heel hook submission at Bellator 68 against Derrick Kennington.

He’ll go for it again tonight, but have his work caught out for him against fellow submission ace Dave Jansen. It’s the long-awaited Final of Season 7’s Lightweight Tournament!

Tune in to Bellator MMA LIVE tonight at 10/9c on Spike.

Also, be sure to download the Bellator MMA app for your iPhone or iPad. Available in the US and Canada. Coming soon for Android phones.

And just like that, I’ve accomplished everything I’ve ever wanted to in life.

But for real Bellator fans, go show spike tv how much we love Bellator.

Congrats dude! That is awesome.


I’m going to Bellator next week in Tampa!

You’re going to see Rickels/Awad and Zayats/Newton in person? Awesome! We’re wicked pumped for both those fights.


The Hardcore Kid shocked the world when he KO’d heavy favorite King Mo to move to the finals of the Light Heavyweight Tournament. 

Will Emanuel Newton be able to slamdance his way to a title shot against Mikhail Zayats? 

Found out how they got there as well as a recap of the season so far with Bellator 360: Road to the Championships, tonight at 11/10c on Spike.

Doug Marshall's Split Decision Win Exposes The Need For Judging Reform | SPIKE

An editorial from Spike.com contributor Kevin Marshall on what continues to be an issue: leaving it in the hands of judges who don’t know how to judge.

No live event this week, but Bellator MMA does have a recap to catch you up on all the tournaments, highlights, knockouts, submission, great fights and major upsets you’ve missed in season eight.

Bellator 360: Road to the Championship airs tonight at 11/10c on Spike.


Mr. Frodo (Magomedrasul Khasbulaev) advanced with a sick submission last month. This month, he faces off against wily veteran Marlon Sandro in the semifinals of the Featherweight Tournament.

While you watch you can make your picks, judge the fight as it happens, get real-time CompuStrike stats and more with the all new Bellator MMA app. If you haven’t already, get the damn thing.
