    Scott talks a good game, and he seems like a competent guy, but who is going to want to buy something that doesn't make any money? Bellator isn't profitable. There was almost no hype for this 300 event. What a joke. Just let it die and the best guys can go to the UFC.

    Scott’s the man in all honesty. Hope to see him stick around the sport awhile longer

    Lol I had to pause this just to answer the how could anyone say Cyborg is not the goat comment; anyone who saw her face first out cold and then say no to a rematch with said person says she’s not the goat because the woman who knocked her out became a 2 division champ and retired holding both belts. Now back to the rest

    You need to promote the brand more to make it bigger, Scott Coker. I get that you want to promote the fighters, but you guys need to do a better job of that, too.

    Cyborg is still the #2 GOAT. Sorry, Cat Zingano is 41 years old, lost to Julianna Pena and Ronda Rousey. Her real only claim is that she bested Nunes before she became the Lioness with cardio. Cris is still gonna be well known one day.

    I was there last night, honestly the fights were okay, the best two, that got the crowd amped were Cyborg vs. Cat and Leah vs. Sara. The coolest thing about being there is being on the floor. You have to get there so you can walk around freely. Because I got pictures and autographs with Alejandra Lara, Nemkov, AJ McKee, Royce Gracie, Frank Shamrock, Dan Henderson, Ryan Bader, Josh Thompson, and the great Chael Sonnen. Cain Velasquez didn't take pictures with anyone. He was all business as a cornering. And lastly, Usman Nurmagamedov is huge, could definitely be solid 170lbr.

    Dana White just can't stand the fact there are other MMA organizations. He bought out Pride, WEC, Strikeforce, and Cage Warriors. EliteXC, Affliction, Dream, and Eagle FC all collapsed. As if he doesn't have a monopoly over the sport. I miss all those organizations.

    Scott Coker and Dana White

    What are the chances UFC and Bellator are just fronts for drug lords?

  20. Dana McArdle

    Cyborg isn't the goat because she ran away from a rematch with Nunes who destroyed her, Nunes never ran from a rematch

    He's chewing gum. What is this a Showtime production? Who the fuck chews gum on TV? He's not Brad Pitt. Also, I'm kidding. I like Scott. Cool dude, but yeah, the gum has gotta go.

    Man, Bellator really is just like 8-10 dudes with a bunch of scrubs for them to beat. Sucks if it does go under though.

    Idk, a bellator and pfl merge could be good. No one's watching either of them much, at least compared to UFC.
    I might catch it on rerun but it's not a live event have to watch kinda thing. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Thank you Scott for everything you've done in help growing not just bellator but the sport of MMA.

    But most of all thank you for the Class and professionalism you did it all with.

    Unlike that piece of shit Dana, you actually care about this sport and it's fighters not just your bottom line . We love you and wish u the best.

    My favorite fight you guys put on was nick diaz vs Shamrock strike brightforce san jose california wow😊😊😊

    If Dana White had half the humility Coker has the UFC would be taken much more seriously by sports networks and sponsors. It’s still looked at as a sport for drunk guys at a bar because Dana feels the need to curse at reporters, talk down on the athletes, promote himself over the athletes, and make enemies with everyone and anyone who doesn’t kiss his ass.

    Went to a Bellator event and it was a great time. For true mma fans Bellator will be very very missed. Hoping they stick around 🙏

    A little confused . Out of all the years mma has been around and the promotions that have come and gone. Bellator via Scott Coker that was already bought out by ufc
    The lackluster the promotion is able to build up hence older ufc fighters to kind of ride on for the big fights …
    I’m scratching my head thinking like huh … this doesn’t make sense.
    And then to have negative comments about Dana who has built that brand from the ground up doesn’t really make sense.
    Hats off to Coker to give it a fair shot but obviously something isn’t working out …
    The structure of the promotion
    The tournament style which hasn’t seemed to work ..
    like are we doing things backwards ?
    There’s something missing for sure and it has been for some time and that leads to continuous failure ..
    super well spoken guy but what’s really going on …
    At the end of the day this is a business like it or not it’s a business for promotion and the FIGHTERS, they put thier life on the line to make money this is their life
    So to not see what’s happening …what’s really going on
    The reason MMA is even still around to this degree is because of UFC and all of the men who sacrificed their lives to make this sport what it is today
    I think people need to look at the bigger picture at how things are being run
