Now that last night’s (Friday, Feb. 19, 2016) epic failure is in the history books and we can reflect on the monumental disaster that was the co-main event of Bellator 149 (described by Joe Rogan as the worst fight ever), let’s take this time to share some reaction from the Interwebs.
Kimbo Slice vs. Dada 5000 was mercilessly mocked far and wide by mixed martial arts (MMA) fans forced to endure two and a bit rounds of some of sloppiest and pathetic fighting the world has ever seen. Witness the reactions below.
First off, this “tribute video” to the fight doesn’t even really require commentary or mockery. It basically just shows how utterly friggin’ terrible the fight was.
Next up, the ESPN Deportes commentators trying hard to keep their act together during this clown car circus act.
And then, the GOAT, Cathal Pendred gives his “Gracie breakdown” of the finish:

Following the fight, UFC heavyweight Derrick “The Beast” Lewis was having good laugh about Kimbo’s team coming back to his dressing room screaming “give him some oxygen!”
Good times, good times. But actually, not really, as Dada 5000 needed to be brought back to life in the ambulance after the fight and was in critical condition overnight for his insane 40-pound weight cut.
The good news is that he’s OK and will live, but it’s certainly no laughing matter that this farce nearly resulted in a fatality last night. And what did the Spike TV folks say about airing that debacle?
Sounds like Scott Coker has some ‘splainin’ to do.
