  1. UFC = best fighters in the world having high level fights. Bellator = UFC washouts stumbling around.

  2. Disagree. Chandler vs Primus stuck out to me more, Lee vs AI was a good fight. Barboza and Hooker was good as well.

  3. that's what you wanted Ariel, but the Answer is no. I was only interested in Machida's fight which I didn't even watch because I don't have Dazn. Al and Barboza stole the show
