    Really you're taking Daley??? I was trying to figure out if Rory can get the finish or not. If not he dominates 3 rounds for sure.

    Feeling tempted to put something down on Linton Vassell.

    McGeary isn't much of a wrestler, there's no guarantee it goes to the ground where he does his best work.

    Cheick Kongo's opponent, Augusto Sakai, averages .5 groin strikes per round in his last two fights.

    If an eye for an eye leaves the world blind.

    What happens if Kongo and Sakai go nut shot for nut shot?

    Little short on betpoints these days, in the process of building them back up now..

    Do love Mac though... I think he cleans Daily, probably takes him down and beats on him like a drum.. Daley has no ground game what so ever.. It's gonna be an easy win for Rory Mac..

    Liking the 0ffensive passiveness and defensive minded battle of Kongo vs Sakai to go OVER 1.5 Rounds.

    Do they? I usually just check 5dimes in the past and see nothing.. In the past if 5dimes puts up props typically all the other books follow then after.. I'll check Bovada tonight thanks Ty...

    I also like Kongo and Vassell by decision.. I don't think Paul Daley is gonna pull off a Robbie Lawler type KO win over Rory Mac though..

    I gotta believe Rory is gonna try to get this fight to the ground.. Daley has a very weak ground game.

    If Rory gets it to the ground, he will dominate. If it's a fifteen minute battle on the feet, I'll take Daley to out kickbox almost anyone.

    There was always props for Bellator in years past. This year they just stopped putting them out..

    This is a fairly big name Bellator event as well so I was hoping 5dimes would put them up.. No dice yet...

    I like that bet. People are reluctant to bet on Kongo because of his age, but he showed in his last fight he still has it.

    Kongo fights more cautious standing these days and uses his improved wrestling more often.. This has made him a more complete fighter and harder to beat..

    I think Kongo takes this fight but he is facing a BIG boy and an undefeated fighter in Sakai.. Kongo is 42 years old now also..

    Anyways, with this win Kongo may find himself back in the UFC for a last hoorah!! Kongo Bongo has rattled off 4 wins in a row in Bellator now..http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Cheick-Kongo-2193

    Kongo looked like a beast against Oli Thompson.

    Hard to imagine he'll lose against a heavyweight who doesn't seem to have good trainers or a good team who didn't do well against a natural 205'er in his last outing.

    MMA junkie is posting results:



    http://mmajunkie.com/2017/05/bellato...rning-spoilers

    Kimbo's son won his fight. Wonder if he could develop into a prospect someday.

    Looks like Kongo won. Not sure if he'll get a title shot off a split decision. I'm sure bellator wanted him to get an impressive finish so they could market a title fight better. :/

    edit: holy !@#%. Linton Vassell beat McGeary.
