Main card is about to start
A couple strong performances on the prelims from Pimenta and Amoussou..Pimenta is 170 and Amoussou fought at 175 and is moving to 170. Looks like these two can be in the next WW tournament. Psycho moving to 170 is long overdue IMO..he should find more success in that class.
Strong main card
Marcin Held vs. "The next Anderson Silva" Phillipe Nover

Should have let it go a little further but I always saw this ending like it did

Well on second look Pitbull had both of Batman's arms trapped and was landing clean punches...but it didnt look like he had them tightly trapped to where Kurt would not have been able to escape.
Either way, impressive performance by Friere but Kurt could have been given a few more seconds to improve his situation.

Prindle only started selling the groin shot after the ref broke it up.

What a garbage ref performance in the Pellegrino fight. Every fucking one of the punches Friere threw after he dropped him and especially the ones at the very end were directly to the back of the head and it was still an early stoppage. Total trash

thought the stoppage was bad, but really missing all the back of the head stuff.

Watched it again..live and the slower replays from the different angles and i saw maybe one punch that landed on the back of Kurt's head and even that is questionable, even that one was very high to being the top of Kurt's head. Everything else were clean shots to the sides. Kurt was not close to being out though. Horrible stoppage, but Patricky was not landing anything dirty there. If anything was hit the back Kurt's head is was the wrist grazing it. The punches were clean.

I'm sorry, but everything he threw when he had that crucifix position looks straight back of the head to me

A rare disappointing Bellator.
Pellgrino should of got two more seconds from the ref, but he was only gonna get KO'd super double hard anyways still even if he got up.
That HW finale.... ugg. Weird, weird kick. Between the legs but it didn't look hard, and Prindle was laughing at it it until the ref stopped. Don't know what Santos was thinking kicking him in the gouche like that.
Haven't watched Asamouga fight or the Vila fight./

Didn't like the decision on the first fight.
Didn't like the pelligrino stoppage.
Thought Prindle was hamming up the kick, but I don't see the motivation.
Funny thing with the kick was it was more in the ass then in the balls. Is a kick to the ass illegal?

I think Prindle was very much overmatched and he knew it. Maybe the motivation was he thought he could get the DQ?
