Whose taking it?

I'm going Held, I think this fight is eventually going to end up on the ground, where Held has a sizable advantage in the grappling department.
 
Patricky is one of my favorite fighters so I will root and pick him. Held would probably get him on the ground, but Patricky throws them bombs. Standing? Patricky. Grappling? Held.

So it'll really depend if Marvin can get him down. Love the fight though.

As usual I will mention I made Patricky's Wiki page and I am so happy that he battled back into contention.
 
Pitbull standing, Held on the ground.

I have no idea where this will go. Good fight.
 
Pitbull by second round knockout after losing the first.
 
Held by comeback submission after getting his bell rung, and possibly dropped.
 
I don't think Friere's hands are that good. I mean he has power but so did Held in his last fight, and Friere so damn reckless it opens him up to takedowns.
 
Great LW fight. Really looking forward to it.

Held has previously looked sloppy in the stand-up after long scrambles on the ground.. he seems to be improving that. Tricky just forgot he was really good for a minute, but he seems to be getting over that as well. Both guys have high ceilings IMHO.
 
Sad matchup cauz it'll be the last Bellator bout in a tournament, then we'll not c any other tourney, nevah 4evah!

If not to crown a new division, hopefully they'll make a tournament for the WFW strap.
