Bellator 129 was really terrible — easily the worst event they’ve put on in a long time. We kind of knew it’d be atrocious when we saw there were more catchweight bouts than non catchweight bouts.
So, in true CagePotato fashion, we cut out the bullshit and are telling you only what you need to know.
What happened at the event?
A whole lot of nothing, really.
Paul Bradley defeated Josh Neer via smothering lay-and-pray decision. Neer was apparently pretty pissed off about it.
Houston Alexander and Virgil Zwicker fought to a draw. Alexander would’ve won the atrociously boring fight had he not intentionally headbutted Zwicker and lost a point for the foul.
Andre Santos defeated James Terry in the most forgettable fight ever.
But the card opened up with a finish: Joe Vedepo TKO’d Davin Clark.
And what’s the story with the GIF above?
That’s from the 168-pound catchweight fight between Jozette Cotton and Holly Lawson. If you ask us, the GIF is the most (and only) entertaining one of the night.
