LMAO they wanted him to throw the fight and he refused. He was giving after-party details out on twitter 3 hours ago, and was fine talking to MMA media.
Chael tried to step up but he had just thrown one
so the boss Coker said no bueno, you're on cooldown you can't throw back to back. ViaFix I mean Viacom fucks up another card.
Oli Thompson, Cheick Kongo's opponent, wasn't agreed to by Fedor early sources are saying.

You can't take a joke? We don't know what happened outside Bellator tried to get Chael in, didnt work out. Oli Thompson was also offered.
Thats all we know for sure, even the kidney stones thing is speculative and unconfirmed by MMA media. Its a disaster for Bellator.

It's not about being able to take a joke, it's about your post being a bunch of incoherent nonsense.

Jayrebbs post coherency suffers due to the orifice manipulation he was subjected to at the hands of a cruel high school wrestler. Shit's serious, yo. Life long effects.
I will never understand why people showboat in MMA matches... literally the best showboating you can do is beating someone soundly and letting the fight speak for itself.

Matt Mitrione gave interviews all week, including all day yesterday. After-party information was given out 3 hours before fight cancellation by Matt Mitrione's twitter.
Chael just threw a fight to Tito, with what were apparently hand-signals included for everyone to see. The video demonstrating the signals, as well as the .gif, has been erased from Google's top hits and Youtube via copyright claims. So no repost available.
Technical fact.
"December 2011, Viacom acquired a majority stake of Bellator and in January 2013"
Viacom is the parent company of Bellator, they ultimately dictate the budget and product. Its believed Fedor was low-balled when offered these replacement fights, MMA media reported they couldn't come to terms. The opponents seemed willing, its assumed Fedor was not willing (he only plans on fighting 2 more times he said). Its money. If you don't believe its money, you would need to state why you believe that. As empirical evidence would be against you here according to MMAFighting and ESPN, which indicate Fedor was the problem with Coker then admitting they couldn't get a deal done that fast. Viacom therefore fucks up another card. Its their job to authorize the budget for Bellator, having a controlling interest.
We later found out Fedor likely refused the Oli Thompson fight. Again, still waiting for "early" sources to become "late" sources.
Keep me posted on those comprehension updates

The play by play guy tonight with Stann sucks bigly. Did anyone hear him when they were coming back from commercial break with a shot of the outside of the arena...no one skating or anything...and this guy says some shit like, "There might be a young Tonya Harding out there waiting for someone to beat up".
