  1. If Ariel doesn't stop with his anti-Dana/UFC whining he's gonna get fired from ESPN just like he got fired from FOX and the May-Mac gig.

  2. Hell no, bootlegtor won't overshadow ufc, even with the ufc worst card possible.

  3. You'd swear someone paid some of these goofballs in the comment section to talk down on Bellator. You don't have to hate one because you love the other, dumbass.

  4. What? No grand slam? Conor Khabib did over 2 million buys. That’s the record. What is he talking about.

  5. ny ric sleeping on stephens v zabit. I'm glad that Zabit is finally getting higher ranked competition
