Add Chuck Lidell in the mix and it's on. Victor's Legends League becomes reality.
The genuine looks of confusion are so fucking awesome.

I'm a huge Strikeforce / Coker / Rich Chou supporter. But It's a bit hard to imagine that card going worse for Bellator. Jesus Christ.
In the lead-up, the promotion was swamped by Conor-Floyd. Then, when the event hits, you get nothing but awful results.
- Bader-Davis went to a fairly pedestrian split decision for Bader again, both foreclosing the possibility of a rubbermatch and grinding the LHW hype to a halt. A Bader win would have been fine if it were a good or interesting win. But it was not.
- Larkin loses and, even worse, loses in a stinker. Now you're stuck with some random NPC as your champion and Larkin's wasted cash. Whups.
- Pico. Dear lord. How's that national junior golden gloves championship? Yeesh.
- Chandler, the face of Bellator and its only legitimate homegrown star, loses his belt in a freaky and unsatisfying way to a man coming off an electrifying April 2016 win over Gleristone Santos. Oh Jesus.
- Fedor gets turned inside out in a couple minutes. At least it was exciting. But if you're hoping to start a HW division, you do not want that division to consist of Meathead, Big Country, and King Mo. Very sad and weird.
- While the main event was a snoozer, at least it wouldn't have been a surprise for Bellator.
Really unlucky results for Coker and friends. Luckily, they'll be storming back with Girtz vs. Campos 3 next month. Wait... what?

They need Lima vs Rory ASAP
Put Chandler against Create a Fighter 2 as the co-main

The stool being pulled away from Chandler perfectly sums up this PPV. Actually it's the perfect summary for MMA in 2017.
