    Ken is 51. Ferg is 41. Neither of them have competed for the better part of five years.

    Apparently they didn't have a picture of Ken in Bellator gloves.

    I say maybe because Ken is unreliable.

    Neither of them have competed in a few years, since 2010 I think.

    Ken is 51. Ferg is 41 but has always seemed older than they say.

    Ken's record since 2005 is pretty shit (2-7), his two wins coming against the late Ross Clifton (had lost five of six at the time) and Jon Ivey (had lost 11 of 14 at the time).

    Kimbo? After competing on The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights, where he lost to Roy Nelson, he had two fights in the UFC--an exhausting brawl with Houston Alexander which he won, and a knockout loss to Matt Mitrione, after which he was cut from the UFC. Not exactly sure why they pulled the plug on him so fast.

    So far this is the only bout announced for Bellator 138.

    Missour'a will force these two to have more medical testing due to their age.

    Tim Sylvia's career is over due to enhanced medical testing. Well, it wasn't the neurologist's fault, but without it he'd be fighting and putting himself in danger.

    Hopefully these two goons are healthy but if not I hope they know when enough is enough. Of course if Missouri won't sanction them the other AC's will follow suit.

    Hey what happened to Kenny's ridiculous bare knuckle pikey boxing thing? Is that off, now?

    ^ Ken looks a little haggard but that is actually a pretty slick poster.
