Jonas Magard is injured and unfortunately cannot defend his bantamweight title at oktagon 38
however, ufc veteran Gustavo Lopez (12-6-1 usa) will fight Filip Macek (27-16-1 czech republic) for the interim belt

It is all about money. I find it ok to work on December 31. That is persons work, his choice. Police, medical guys, taxi drivers and etc do work on December 31 after all. A fighter could add a clause in his contract, that he will take his family with him. But like I've said, it was Pride FC, asian promotion. They dont celebrate New Years eve, they have their own New Year in January.

If I was offered to work on December 31, now, I think would accept such offer with some extra payment. But, if some of my relatives gets sick, I will think about quit that days job. Yet again, depends on a situation. High temperature and being in hospital are two different things,

I wonder how making a fight on the 31st would be fair to the fighters? they are also people who have family and who have the right to be with their families to spend the 31st together, they shouldn't be greedy to let the family spend the 31st without them just because they want to fight and earn money, when they stay sick people will be in bed and will need the family to take care of them, their money doesn't have the legs and brains to take care of them

also people on the 31st travel and others are just focused on spending the day resting and doing activities with their family and friends, but most of the time they are not activities of watching or betting on fights, I think that even the casinos or the promoters of fights would be at a loss because few people would watch the fight on the 31st, it would not be advantageous for any fight promoter to put a fight on the 31st

Yeah and I am really excited for this upcoming Bellator Rizin event, there is five very good fights and chance for them to test how good other organizations are.
I remember when some UFC champions signed for ONE FC and they started losing fights easy, that means that there is no huge difference compared to UFC.
Does anyone know any crypto gambling website that offer this Bellator vs RIZIN event for gambling?

I was really late and because this thread is not updating so much that I think it is better to stay calm and become busy somewhere else, the Main Event as the start of the fight I have seen the stance of Mariusz Pudzianowski I say oh no I have bet the wrong guy, he doesn't have any confidence at all, while Mamed Khalidov was really calm and pretty much he is just playing with Pudzian, While Jakub Wikłacz did a great job in winning, pretty much he busted his face but he kept on fighting until the bell rang with a decision win,

---

I'd say I am pretty much upset with the main event but again because of what I have seen, Mamed Kailidov despite that weight

Mariusz Pudzianowski VS Mamed Khalidov ROUND 1 KO/TKO - LOST

It was an easy victory for Mamed Khalidov, at the start of the match you can already notice who's going to win and when the fight resulted going to the ground Mariusz Pudzianowki have given up hi back, and with a mount Mamed pulverized him with punches,

Sebastian Przybysz VS Jakub Wikłacz ROUND 5 DECISION - WIN

Pretty much not a fight that did something extreme because it was a close one, Jakub Wiklacz just putted many strikes winning he game,

Aleksandra Karaseva VS Wiktoria Czyżewska ROUND 1 KO/TKO - WIN

Aleksandra Karaseva has proven her worth and that 1 punch KO that she have throw was really superb and a something to look out for her by her opponent,

Good that tokeweed has mentioned Pride FC, as they were the one who loved to have events on December 31.

I remember like it was yesterday. It is 23:50, I am sitting around the new years table (celebration of a new year on Dec 31 is a bigger holiday than xmas in our country) with my family, the president is about to give his speech, summarize everything we had this year and etc, people about to drink Champaign and run outside to fire fireworks, everyone are happy. Happy except me, because I want to switch TV to sports channel and watch Fedor "The last Emperor" Emelianenko fight

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedor_Emelianenko - take a look yourself. Go to his record section, press ctrl+f and type 31 December. While everyone were eating salads, meatballs, drinking, opening presents, he has been fighting 7 times on the last day of the year. Crazy Asians

^  Yup.  They def should work together if Bellator and the other smaller promotions really want to compete with the UFC.  But the thing is the UFC can buy them twice over if they see growth in these smaller promotions.  They did it with Strike Force and the did it with Pride FC.  I wouldn't be surprised if they started buying another small and struggling organization and turn it around to be profitable.  I think the UFC has a stake in Cage Warriors and LFA...  Not really sure but I'll look it up later.

And really, some competition against the UFC will be very good for us too.  More quality fights across different organizations. 

I never saw MMA fight on the last day of this year, and this reminds me on matches we see in Premier League around this time.
This is a great idea for making cross promotion like this Bellator plus Rizin, and maybe this is a perfect way to compete with UFC, but I think Dana White will not like this idea and maybe he is busy with his new slapping competition

the lineup for the oktagon 38 event is now fixed
among others the bantamweight title fight between the danish Jonas Magard and the czech Filip Macek will take place in prague on december 30th.
all other cage duels you can see from the graphic

Here's an event that everybody itt would appreciate.  Hopefully some crypto books put up a market so we can make some bets...  It's good while we're waiting for a month before the next UFC event.

Bellator MMA vs Rizin FF

Date:  December 31, 9:00pm EST
Venue:  Saitama Super Arena, Saitama, Japan



Featherweight:  Patrício Pitbull vs Kleber Koike Erbst            
Lightweight:  AJ McKee vs Roberto de Souza            
Bantamweight:  Juan Archuleta vs Soo Chul Kim            
Flyweight:  Kyoji Horiguchi vs Hiromasa Ougikubo            
Lightweight:  Gadzhi Rabadanov vs Koji Takeda

I've always been curious how these guys from other major promotions perform if pitted against each other.  I know AJ McKee would prolly do well vs some of the top guys in his weight class the UFC.  And to a lesser extend, Patricio Pitbull.  He could be a top 10 guy imho.

So many surprise happen on KSW 77, Khalidov can win via TKO in the first round, it was a brutal punch and Pudzianowski can't handle it maybe because of his ages. Although Wikłacz is winning, but Przybysz really give a good match and it's quite close, they deserve to have a rematch. And Czyżewska can beat Karaseva, no comment about it since it's their first debut on KSW lol. However I still wonder why Ivan Erslan performance is quite different than his previous matches.

I think I will make my pick for the fights on KSW 77 for me it was an exciting event and because we will all witness a David and Goliath fight a Middleweight VS a Heavyweight for the Main Event,

Mariusz Pudzianowski VS Mamed Khalidov

The stake odds for this fight are 2.29 for Pudzianowski and 1.56 for Khalidov, now I really don't know why a battle between two significantly different weight classes would need to collide and I really don't know their beef with each other but because of Pudzian heavy mass he got the advantage of weight and against Khalidov that is a middleweight only and a wrestler so that is one significant factor of edge with weight and Pudzian also got that knockout power for the fight to only last 1 round for me this is a no brainer my pick is Pudzianowski but indeed it is one curious fight to watch,

Sebastian Przybysz VS Jakub Wikłacz

The stake odds for this fight are 1.39 for Przybysz and 2.75 for Wiklacz, for this fight, Jakub Wiklacz has a reach advantage of 2.3 centimeters over Przybysz and is much younger than him, well even though Sebastian is the favorite win for me Jakub Wiklacz has a good record of 9 submission wins, this could end up nasty because Sebastian Przybysz has a good striking pattern and could knockout Wiklacz fast, but with great timing, Jakub Wiklacz can manipulate his takedowns for me I like the underdog, so my pick will be Jakub Wiklacz,

Aleksandra Karaseva VS Wiktoria Czyżewska

The stake odds for this fight are, well there are no bookies on a stake I think because this is the latest addition to the event, for these fighting kitties it is a fight or Ukraine VS Russia, but let's step back on that political views, but for this fight, I think Wiktoria Czyzewska has many experiences in her past amateur fight but surely she can not underestimate the power of Karaseva, but for me with the beautiful Wiktoria Czyzewka, I think that experience that she has might go fine wit her own way,

to the ksw event mentioned above, another (eleventh) fight duel was officially announced today. this is a female cage fight between polish Wiktoria Czyżewska and ukrainian Oleksandra Karaseva.
here again all duels visually represented:

Hey man, I have to ask you a simple simple question, CAN YOU READ the title and everything that was written in first post?!
I don't want to repeat myself, but we are talking about everything related to MMA except UFC, topic title and first post is enough for most people.
There is separate topic for UFC and we don't want to have duplicate topics used for spam.
Thank you for understanding 

One of the last MMA events this year and it is going to be bombastic with Pudzianowski coming back.
Don't miss Ibragim Chuzhigaev vs Ivan Erslan in light heavyweight category, this should be interesting to watch and we could see a surprise underdog win in this fight.

I'm surprised that UFC 282 isn't even talked about here.. especially about the fight over the main fight (Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev)
To this day I can't understand how the referees decided. Even in the post fight interview with Joe Rogan, it was clear to Jan Blachowicz that he himself was very uncomfortable.
Even he was honest enough to admit that the fight shouldn't have ended in a draw.

But somehow it wasn't the evening of the referees anyway, even in the Pimblett Fight the scorecards were very "strange".  

There's new event from KSW in this week, it's KSW 77 the main event is Mariusz Pudzianowski vs Mamed Khalidov, the co main event is both fight between Przybysz vs Jakub Wikłacz and Chuzhigaev vs Ivan Erslan. Pudzianowski had five win streak via KO which is insane, although Khalidov had a long experience in MMA, but I doubt he can beat Pudzianowski. Przybysz seems has low chance to lost against Wiklacz, while Chuzhigaev is still a new champion, he need to prove against Erslan if he deserved to wear the belt.

Well, wearing a mask could be something for him, it may be to scare Dalton Rosta or just to hide from embarrassment, which is the right choice knowing that he will lose to Rosta after the fight, Dalton Rosta was really too much for Anthony Adams from start to finish he is dominating Adams that is why the result is a unanimous decision, Dalton Rosta from start to finish had get all of the rounds, that power and durability was too much for him,


After that you said it, I searched all the funny weigh-ins and faceoffs from the UFC, and I was really laughing at all the Cringe they have shown, moreover I never knew that Angela Hill was too good at cosplaying and  that Dhalsim cosplay really was accurate and that Tom Lawlor also was a funny one as well impersonating Conor McGregor is hilarious McGregor also like what he is doing aswell,

Wow! congrats to Chris Brown (the singer) pretty much this is Lil Dicky in his body and fighting Alfonso Leyva but kidding aside I haven't made a bet and a pick because I had something to check at that time, but it was KO/TKO win for Chris Brown and the new Welterweight Champion,

Pretty much for so much attention he got himself in a position he can never return again, and after doing that he surely regrets it for the rest of his life, for sure there are many that are doing this kind of antic like Ion Cutelaba and his Hulk painted green all over, he surely giving life to his nickname, and Tom Lawlor wearing a mask and he ended up stumbling down was really hilarious and cringy, and going out with a bucket of KFC on his head and with a face mask and bag that looks like a robot, and lastly his Conor McGregor impersonation complete with a sticker tattoo on his chest, and Markus Perez dresses and face painted as the Joker, and Angela Hill that cosplayed as Sagat, and Dhalsim from the Street Fighter game, surely a little fun would not surely hurt,

And recently LFA 148 event Chris Brown won against Alfonso Leyva now LFA has an RNB Welterweight Champion,

I don't understand how Anthony Adams made the old mistake of drawing too much attention before the fight, it seems he hasn't seen how all fighters who are too exhibitionistic or do unusual things to get attention before the fight end up as they end badly, most sometimes showy fighters always lose in the fight, I myself have seen funny videos on youtube of so many fighters who are showing off and doing unusual things before the fight and at the time of the fight they lose and the saddest thing is that they can't even last many rounds, they lose too early, congratulations to Dalton Rosta for the victory, he had better chances of winning this fight in my opinion

I haven't posted my predictions and picks here, because of sudden things that I need to do first, but this is the result of the Bellator 289: Stots vs. Sabatello event

MAIN CARD

Raufeon Stots Def Danny Sabatello Via DECISION, SPLIT
Liz Carmouche Def Juliana Velasquez Via SUBMISSION, ARMBAR
Patchy Mix Def Magomed Magomedov Via SUBMISSION, GUILLOTINE CHOKE
Dalton Rosta Def Anthony Adams Via DECISION, UNANIMOUS

PRELIMINARY CARD

Ilara Joanne Def Denise Kielholtz Via DECISION, SPLIT
Jaleel Willis Def Kyle Crutchmer Via DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Cris Lencioni Def Cody Law Via DECISION, SPLIT
Christian Echols Def Patrick Downey Via KO/TKO, RIGHT UPPERCUT
Kai Kamaka III Def Kevin Boehm Via KO/TKO, PUNCHES FROM BACK CONTROL
Michael Lombardo Def Mark Lemminger Via KO/TKO, LEFT HOOK
Cass Bell Def Jared Scoggins Via DECISION, SPLIT

The Full mask terrorist on the weigh-ins, Anthony Adams had lost to Dalton Rosta via decision I really thought that Rosta could get a Knockout win against Adams, but Anthony Adams was really safe with his movements Rosta has perfectly landing punches to Adams, even though a superman punch but indeed it didn't budge Adams a bit, but on the 2nd round Rosta is now looking for a submission win but to no avail, it was stopped by Adam's but indeed the one that is dominating the fight was really Dalton Rosta,

While Magomed Magomedov is having trouble with Patchy Mix's length the reach of those punches is troubling him in getting an opening and it was a good start for Patchy Mix I never realise that Magomed Magomedov was using Jiu-Jitsu instead of Combat sambo or Dagestan Wrestling even though he was from Dagestan, and so Mix have Dominated the entire round and getting that guillotine choke of Magomedov,
