Bellator MMA had their public weigh-ins yesterday night for their Bellator 149: Shamrock vs Gracie event. This is their biggest show of this year so far. Bellator has received a lot of criticism for not having that great of an undercard, but in my opinion there is no doubt that this will be an interesting event to watch. I know that Shamrock and Gracie are way passed their prime, but that doesn’t mean that people don’t want to see these 2 legends go at it again. Another interesting fight is the Bellator Heavyweight Main Event between Kimbo Slice and Dada 5000. Now, we all know that this will definitely not be a technical match, but that is why I want to see it, because I expect them to slug it out until one of them can’t go any longer. Below is how everyone weighed in:
