I know not many people watched it, and I only caught half of it.
but Lozano, Lima, Santos and Saunders advanced.
Lozano weedman was a real good scrap. Lozano hits hard. He brawls. Exciting fighter. I liked him when he beat up yoshida a year or so back, lost to lyman good last season, but looked strong last night.
Saunders looked pretty nasty, I thought Cisneros was be totally overmatched. But he was more game then I expected. Still Saunders cruised and then finished the hawaian.
Those were the only fights I caught live.
Everyone's favorite Bellator prospect Lima survived an early scare from steve carl to roll to a unanimous.
And long time under the radar veteran Lima took out Hornbuckle. I wonder if Hornbuckle has seen the last of the bellator tourneys. I say a scrap of he vs good would be a nice one to make.

I like Saunders vs Santos Matchup. Santos kickboxing looked real crisp. Him and Saunders were the only memorable thing about it from my drunk tired eyes.

Saunders def looked nasty in the standup, the opening 2 kicks were brutal. and then he finished with those brutal knees.
I'll have to track down the Santos fight if u say it was worth watching.
The 2nd rnd at least of the Lozano fight was very good.

Santos outclassed in the striking with ease, not saying Hornbuckle is good there anyways, but Santos credentials as a kick boxer were evident. Saunders being dangerous there also and being bigger could pose some good problems.

So my initial assumption is that nobody watched the Bellator undercard on Facebook, I know I didn't. But I see this and I go on the hunt to watch...
gotta find a link for some of those and watch em during the week.
If an org wants to build up it's young talent it has to get people to watch. Simple as that.

this brings me to a topic I've been meaning to bring up.
I do not get many of the videos that u, and especially OU put up. Is there a filter I need to shut off?

What browser are you you using, how up to date are your flash player settings, what are you post settings in the site, etc.,. Questions you need to consider it sounds like.
Do you only see the embed coding?
The videos I always post, I use a embed format that is made specifically for forum posting.

just watched the bezzera fight from the undercard.
A brazillian who out wrestles an American collegiate wrestler?
Not the showstopper the article suggested, but a good solid W.

Lima is better then he showed. IMO he is clearly the most promising WW on the Bellator roster. Love that guy.

Just watched Santos vs Hornbuckle.
Agree Santos was throwing thudding kicks all fight. Highlight of the fight imo was the kick from off his back.
good to see a long time under the radar vet do well in his big chance. A loss there could have sent him back to no man's land.
He handled a taller/longer fighter in Hornbuckle, and will have a similar challenge in Saunders. Ben has a more dangerous attack then hornbuckle. But Santos wasn't pushed too hard vs Dan, let's see if he has another level.

haven't seen that one yet. Seems like a sluggish affair, I'll pass for now.
