I was down on the Bellator PPV at first, but here I am, two days away from the card and I’m starting to feel pumped. Rampage vs. King Mo is the fight we’ve always wanted, is it not? Two damn solid light heavyweights going for broke in what should be the best light heavyweight fight (personality and promotion-wise) we’ll see outside the UFC in God knows how long. We may see a knockout, we could see a bloodbath, all I know is that it’s the cherry on top of Tito and Shlemenko.
Yeah, I’m a Shlemenko mark, but that doesn’t change that fact that Bellator’s PPV card is looking sweeter and sweeter every day it gets closer, and it all leads to Rampage fighting King Mo. Frankly, I think Rampage has what it takes to beat Mo. If Mo plays his wrestling game, however, it’s over for Page. Still, I can see both of them headhunting en route to a second round knockout. Damn. It’s gonna be good, I really think that (watch it be a snoozefest now that I’m excited).
Rampage is playing the promotion game and saying all of the right things leading up to his fight with King Mo:
“My fight alone is going to be worth the pay-per-view. This is one of the few grudge matches going on right now in MMA where [the fighters] honestly don’t like each other,”
“I’m going to put on an exciting fight, and I’m going to be coming at him the second the bell rings. I’m going to show Memphis that I’m the baddest fighter out of Memphis. I want the world to know. I’m going to be on him like white on rice, and that’s something that you haven’t seen me do in a long time. I’m going to dictate this whole pace. I have a statement to make, and I think that’s worth it, right there.”
