I'm at the airport with my son, waiting for our flight to Vegas to watch 197. Pretty pumped to be doing this with him!

Ben Henderson getting absolutely handled by Koreshkov in Bellator.
He ate some heavy shots and kept coming, but was a weight class too small and couldn't do much of anything. He should go back to 155. Last edited by ZootedGranny; 04-22-2016 at 08:58 PM.. |

I think he just knows he's about to get that ass spanked again.

If he didn't think he could find the time to properly train for a fight of this kind while also meeting his media obligations, then he shouldn't have agreed to it. He's not the first fighter to move up weight classes for a fight. |

Regardless, its a stupid rematch to begin with and I can't believe the UFC was thinking about delaying a featherweight title fight for a fight that means absolutely nothing in the grand scheme of things. That's pretty disrespectful to guys like Edgar who don't have anything on the table and now he's going to fight Aldo for an interim belt when the champ isn't even injured. |

As for your first, like I said, he knew the deal going in....and let's not act like he's the first fighter to ever move up weight classes. If he didn't think he could do it AND meet his media obligations (which were obviously going to be ramped up even more for a card like 200), then he shouldn't have signed the fight contract. That's just the way the game is played. |

Sounds like he was willing to promote, he just didn't want a three city drawn out ordeal. He told then he would chief to nyc for the big presser

Sounds like a pretty lame excuse. Its just a few days on a private jet with the fight 3 months away, and if he's already willing to fly to NY and back from iceland, thats a chunk of the travel right there.
