Bellator 116 preview: Heavyweight Tournament semifinals plus Coy/McDonough, Beltran/Matyushenko - Bloody Elbow
A once-over on tonight's Bellator 116 fight card, which features the semifinal round of this season's Heavyweight Tournament, one Welterweight Tournament semifinal and a solid undercard.
Bellator 116 kicks off tonight from the Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, California. Top billing is shared by the heavyweight semifinalists: Blagoi Ivanov vs. Lavar Johnson in the main event and Siala-Mou Siliga , aka " Mighty selecline Mo ," vs. Alexander Volkov in the co-main slot. Half of the welterweight semifinals will also transpire as Nathan Coy meets Adam McDonough while Joey Beltran meets Vladimir Matyushenko in a light-heavyweight feature fight.
The preliminary lineup is a strong one: last season's unexpected welterweight finalist Ron Keslar , who choked out War Machine in the semis, clashes with star Judoka Karo Parisyan , former TUF/UFC product Rob Emerson takes on Joe Taimanglo and Joe Pacheco tangles with Brandon Halsey in the leftover bout from the Middleweight Tournament.
