    Quick thought: What if the Diaz bros, Jake Shields, and maybe Gil all ventured into Bellator? They've all done a lot with Coker (besides Nate), so I'm pretty sure he'd be willing to splash the cash. I could see it happening.

    And if I'm the ufc I force him to fight his last 3 fights under his contract. I make it so he isn't able to fight in another league for at least 2 more years.

      Prediction time! I've got...

      Stipe via 2nd Round TKO (going for the underdog)
      RDA via UD
      Reem via Hulk Smash
      Mitrione via 3rd Round TKO

        I didn't like Mitrione at first but he's grown on me the last couple of years. His post-fight interview tonight was very classy. He's a guy that looks to finish fights and I can get behind a guy with that mentality.

          Yeah, Mitrione seems to have chilled out a bit over the years. I dig his style in the cage too. Pretty crazy that his entire career has been in the UFC.

            That was a must-win for Reem. Guy is still a dangerous matchup for anyone in the top-10.

            LOL at Diaz walking out of the pre-fight interview after one question. just like his big brother.

              Dos Anjos straight mauled Nate. Savage beatdown.

                  Is it me or has Dos Santos gotten bigger?

                    I actually thought he looked smaller.

                      I had it 48-47 JDS by a hair, but I wouldn't have been shocked if Stipe got the W. Two judges giving it to him 49-46 seems a bit off.

                        The only issue with that is who are they going to fight? Are you really going to watch PPV with them fighting scrubs? They have to have some name for them to fight and they won't be fighting each other.

                        He looked like old Reem tonight. He actually went for a TD and landed it. Then he did some GNP. If he takes that approach going forward, he could win some more fights against the top guys.




                        I thought JDS won, but not 49-46. It was a close fight and JDS looks like Cain broke him. He has been off for so long and nothing changed. He gets hit way too much and looks like it has taken its toll on him.

                        I loved watching Diaz getting dominated. I just wish Dos Anjos would have kept it standing and made Diaz tap because he couldn't stand up. Did Diaz make any money on the fight? He lost 20%, I think $10,000 they said for missing something, maybe more for the FS interview and other comments about sponsors. I wonder if he broke even.

                          I had JDS 48-47. Miocic just ran out of gas, but he was still making an effort to push forward. JDS landed more strikes as the fight went on. Still, Miocic showed he's a player in the division.

                          A great night of fights. I am so sick of the Diaz bros. at this point (I used to be a fan). Nate deserves to get cut after all he did this week. He's going to have fun trying to walk on that leg for a couple of weeks. Now it is Nick's turn to take a beating.

                            Yeah, a razor-thin decision. 49-46 is a bit questionable but I think in the end the right guy won.

                              I had it 48-47 Stipe but I can see 48-47 JDS. I think 49-46 is ****ing ridiculous.

                                Nate would have a few fights in Bellator. Chandler, Brooks and one of the Pitbull brothers at 155. At WW, you have Daley, Lima and Michael Page (who looks like he could be a great fighter).

                                Also, Bellator isnt doing PPV in 2015. All their fights will be on Spike.

                                With that said, I think Dana should hold a grudge and make him fulfill his contract,
