However, the promotion have released a new immersive behind-the-scenes experience of the event from inside Kimbo Slice's locker room and it doesn't make you want to gouge out your own eyes and run into oncoming traffic like the fight did. Dare we say, it's pretty damn cool.
Check out the 360 degree virtual reality footage of the event in the video embedded below. To view on desktop, simply click and drag your mouse on the video to look around the arena/dressing room.

Bellator released the following statement to explain how this footage was captured and edited together:
"To shoot the VR footage, Bellator used three separate six-camera rigs using GoPro cameras including one that was fully spherical, attached to a stabilized, mobile monopod. This camera was used for capturing fighters as they left their locker rooms and entered the arena." "Two rigs were tethered to a monitoring command center, which allowed producers to monitor the cameras from each rig. Bellator also used Kolor’s Autopano software to stitch together the footage from the GoPro rigs and Adobe Premiere and After Effects to edit and apply graphics to the final stitch."
