This card got hit hard. Main event is still fairly solid though.

 

Aaron Chalmers vs. Ashley Griffiths - 3 rounds at Welterweight

 

Chalmers drops Griffiths with a wild exchange and grabs a guillotine, Griffiths manages to get back to his feet but the choke is in and Griffiths goes to sleep. SUB 1 by standing Guillotine for Chalmers.

 

Michael Page vs. David Rickels - 3 rounds at Welterweight

 

10-9 Page. What an absolute joke of a fighter

 

FFS. **** this arrogant clown. Hasn't stepped up despite being on the scene for YEARS.

 

Rafael Carvalho vs. Gegard Mousasi - 5 Rounds for the Bellator Middleweight title

 

Yep. He looked pretty bad last time out. Impressive indeed.

 

I had to look up earlier to see how long it had been since Page burst on to the scene. and it's been over FIVE years since his Bellator debut and he was already getting hype after his MMA debut which was over 6 years ago now. After a steady diet of regional level journeymen in both Bellator and SFL he took a slight step up against former UFC/Strikeforce vet Nah-Shon Burrell. Well, despite getting the win he looked terrible against a guy who couldn't make the grade against top 30-40 Welterweights and then Bellator started to throw him back in with complete tomato cans for another year+ before throwing him in with the rotting corpse of Evangelista "Cyborg" Santos a fight he somehow managed to look bad in before scoring another brutal highlight reel KO.... After this he was supposed to get push(so his detractors were told) This was to be true for a brief moment as he was thrown in with the tough but limited Fernando Gonzalez but again in a marginal step up he managed to look terrible and was lucky to come away with the Split decision. That was over a year ago... Come late May 2018 he's back to feasting on blown up Lightweights. This guy is a complete joke.
