With Bellator’s sixth season (technically the seventh season overall if you count last summer’s “Summer Series”) wrapping up this past weekend, I thought I’d take a couple of minutes to reflect on the season that was.
As we’ve come to expect from Bellator, this season offered us quite a roller coaster ride as fans–and I don’t necessarily mean that in a positive way.
We got everything from all-out wars, to contenders for “Snoozer of the Year.” We got dynamic, exciting tournaments right along with some headscratchingly-poor match-making decisions. We got excitement, fun fights, and a big ol’ dollop of weird–pretty much what we’ve come to expect from MMA’s “little promotion that could”.
And since I’m such a Clint Eastwood type of guy myself (I too, enjoy wearing colorful ponchos and not telling people my name) I thought I’d go all Spaghetti Western for our stroll down (recent) memory lane.
So without further ado, let’s look back on the season that was, and recall “the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly” of Bellator’s sixth season.
