Strauss and Pitbull are both legit. Bellator has sucked since Coker took over for Rebney. He is more concerned with booking has beens and UFC washouts.

I wouldn't consider Phil Davis a washout. I think he only lost one fight in the ufc he just wasn't a marketable guy.

But he's the exception and not the norm

Ufc fricked up letting davis and bader go. If jones fricks up again lhw is done. Bader vs cormier would have been a good match and a decent storyline since bader didnt mind talking some shite.

I was being a little over dramatic. Davis, Bendo, Josh Thompson, Meathead, Rory, Badar are all still pretty decent fighters. Still, most were or were becoming gatekeeper types when they left the UFC.

Come on bro, Cormier would wipe the floor with Bader. I would load up on a first round finish prop bet if they ever fought.

I think he would win also, but not in the first. Regardless it would have been a interesting fight because of the feud they had. Just saying that would have been a good fill in if jones fricked up again. If jones fricks up again I honestly think cornier retires at this point.

Cormier is the better wrestler obviously and can take more punishment than Bader so that's a fight he wins 9/10 times.

Bader is good he just needs better people to train with
