    Agreed. They are not making their choices based on talent and performance but name and draw. Which short term may appear to make some sense but long term its gonna kill them. No matter how big a name with performances and fights like that people are NOT going to continue to tune in.

    the upcoming Michael chandler fight will be good. That is what will get there ratings up and if josh fights against Daley that will be another good one to watch. Paul Daley has become a very good fighter

    Over time, they'll stop booking guys like Shamrock and Gracie as their main events. You can't just book some nobodies in the main event and expect to get people to watch. What Bellator is failing to do is to make stars out of their undercard guys. They need to talk these guys up on the show and throughout the weeks and put them in fights against their over-the-hill top draws.

    Shamrock, Gracie and Kimbo should be there to put over their younger good talents.
