Going Forward:
- AJ’s Time: The coronation is finally upon us, as AJ McKee is now on top of the 145lb mountain in Bellator, putting Patricio Pitbull on the canvas and then choking him out to win the Bellator Featherweight Grand Prix, the Bellator Featherweight championship, and a million-dollar check. Not bad for a minute of work.
- Not the Flex You Think it Is: This clip of Cheyanne Buys winning a Performance of the Night bonus was trending, but I don’t think it was for the reason the UFC wanted it to. 17% revenue sharing with your athletes, guys. Embarrassing.
- The Games Roll On: Judo and taekwondo are done, boxing and wrestling are in the thick of it, and karate is soon to be upon us.
