I can now confirm that Eric Prindle has been awarded the 100k and Bellator Heavyweight title shot after Thiago Santos missed weight.

Discuss, or merge with the Bellator thread. Either is cool.

I thought he should have lost via DQ anyways, so Prindle is just getting his win now anyways, in my eyes anyways.

Cheap way to "win" the tourny imo. I guess the rumors of Santos being way overweight last week were true, oh well Konrad wins easily against Prindle. Also when a fighter misses weight and the fight is called off do they still have to give up 20% of their purse?

Looks like Cole Konrad will be ready to go in a few weeks. So the fight is on.

Pretty bad on Santos' part.
Also, that's a pretty lame way to get a title shot, but can't blame Prindle.

Why would he get paid at all? He's not fighting. Prindle should get his purse and win bonus, but Santos gets nothing.

IMO, it's pathetic. Not for Prindle...he did nothing wrong. But Santos is disgraceful. First, a blatant and unnecessary kick to the balls, and now missing weight.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Prindle and Konrad once train together at Team Deathclutch?

The weird thing is, Santos officially finishes runner up in the tourney, so common logic states he'll be getting the runner up purse, right?
This is confusing.

except its not really like that.
Bellator's pay system for the tourneys are a bit confusing
first round you get paid 10/10, second round you get 15/15, finals you get 25/25. so by winning all 3 fights you earn a total of 100k. now wether they give Santos his 25k show money or not is the question. And personally I say they shouldnt. he didnt fight, hell he didnt even make weight and "show up".

Cheap way to win? Oh yea, this is all Prindle's fault that Konrad cant put the spoon down.
