I'd like to take a stab on Mann over Lapilus, but I'm trying to see how much of a size advantage there is going to be for Lapilus. Can't find pictures of the weigh ins anywhere.

McGeary wins by Round 2 TKO early in the round due to a doctor stoppage.

[Hugo de Naranja]

Wanted to pick one underdog between Medvedovsky and Razafiarison. Looks like I picked the wrong one lol. At least I hit my parlay.

[Hugo de Naranja]

Spoiler alert: El Cucuy subs Khabib in the fourth next weekend

[JIBBBY]

Taking a pass on this event. Odds are too jacked even for parlay play.. Have fun guys and good luck!! Favorites should all hit though as usual...

[MMANick]

I love that Kavanagh lost. Didn't look like she took the other girl seriously. Just need Vakhitov for a really great day!

[Sanity Check]

Sinead Kavanagh missed weight by 4 pounds.

Wish I had faded her on that tell.

Sinead and John Gallagher are Conor's ppl.

I expect them to smoke everyone whenever they fight cuz they train with the king.

Just like Artem

Rory Mac is gonna be an absolute killer in Bellator and for a long time to come.. Paul Daley has no chance...

Rory should still be in the UFC IMO.. His epic wars in championship fights can't be ignored..

[Hugo de Naranja]

Rory Mac is gonna own Bellator for a long time to come in his division.. Paul Daley has no chance...

I think Daley has a great chance for as long as he can keep it on the feet. Rory will probably try to wrestle/sub Daley though. Where do you think the line opens for that scrap?

He's not gonna stand and trade with Daley, Rory is a cerebral fighter.. He's taking him down.. I'm hoping the line is workable but I doubt it will be.. Rory -400 if I had to guess but I hope I'm wrong..

[Sanity Check]

Just like Artem

I might pick Artem to beat Cub Swanson in april.

Artem's record isn't impressive but he has looked like a beast at times & shown some glimmers of being a badass.

I would expect Rory to win.

But Rory hasn't looked motivated in a long time.

He didn't look motivated when he fought Stephen Thompson & if he couldn't get up for that fight, would have to think he'll have an even harder time getting up for bellator.

He's been fighting killers, the best of the best in the UFC and losing some close decisions in those. He just needs to start winning again.. Paul Daley is huge step down in competition from Wonderboy and Ruthless Robbie.. I'd be surprised if he doesn't wipe the floor with Daley..http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Rory-MacDonald-14018

I think Daley is just as good as Robbie on the feet. He just doesn't have great TDD or sub defense

That title fight where Robbie Lawler broke his nose might have taken something out of him.

Hope he comes back strong.

Stronger than Ben Henderson, Chael Sonnen and Josh Thomson did in their bellator comebacks.

Yeah I think it's wise to avoid UFC vets as huge favorites in their Bellator debuts just like it's wise to avoid hyped prospects coming into the UFC as huge favorites. A lot changes when you fight in a few promotion and that can lead to anxiety and not performing up to potential.

I think Rory got his nose re-broken in the Thompson fight

The difference is Rory Mac is still only 27 years old.. Some fighters at age 27 haven't even reached their MMA primes yet.. Rory will be just fine...

Yeah he's been in the game forever. Hard to believe he's still that young
