Curran would be a nightmare matchup for Chad Mendes.
agree, he would kill Mendes on the feet, Mendes looks for one or two strikes t set up the shoot, I think Curran would eat him alive standing

Man Pitbull vs Curran was a fantastic fight. I really hope the show has strong ratings cause that was a must see fight.
Also I don't think I overrated Hawn as much as I under appreciated Chandler. Wow that guy is amazing and still young. Scary, scary dude. I felt coming into the fight he could beat guys like Gray Maynard and just about anyone, he is going to be tough for anyone to beat. Dude is a monster.

Great card! Big win for Bellator and Spike. I almost missed it and luckily I turned Spike on. Good thing because Bellator grew up big time imo last night.
