An event that ended up being the highlight of a great fight week, Bellator kicked off its fall season with several memorable fights at Bellator 98. Despite losing two possible bouts due to the odd medical professionals at Mohegan Sun, the replacement bouts were on point and filled the television card with some magic.
Bellator is back in the regular swing of things with a strong Bellator 98 card to kick it all off. Our main event puts the Middleweight championship up for grabs, as Bellator original Alexander Shlemenko looks to keep the strap, facing replacement battler Brett Cooper.
Another Thursday can only mean another round of tournament quarterfinal action at Bellator 89. Along with the four tournament bouts, tonight’s Bellator 89 was headlined by a bantamweight title fight between Eduardo Dantas and Marcos Galvao.
Well yet another year has come and gone, 2012 was an odd year for MMA but the year will not easily be forgotten.

Unfortunately it also saw Strikeforce take a nosedive and the UFC cancel an event for the first time.
The Bellator welterweight tournament has reached the finals after tonight’s semifinal bouts at Bellator 78. Unfortunately both tournament bouts ended with questionable decisions from the referee but in the end it was Lyman Good and Andrey Koreshkov advancing to the season seven tournament final.
