At last night’s Bellator 74, the opening round of the welterweight tournament saw three of the four welterweight tournament bouts go the distance in grinding fashion. The four welterweight tournament bouts made of the Bellator 74 main card, which took place at the Caesar’s Atlantic City in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Bellator is back and tonight the promotion kicked off their seventh season in New Jersey with Bellator 74. The final season before the promotion moves over to Spike TV will feature four new tournaments, starting with the welterweights.
Things have been slow these days in Mixed Martial Arts. With what has seems like a forever break between UFC events, fans have been hanging on every word UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones says and he’s said a lot. Thankfully this week’s Independent MMA Link Club is certified Jon Jones free and offers up a mixed bag of goodies across the world of MMA.
Coming off a crazy paced, jam-packed few months of MMA action; things have slowed down heading into September. The unfortunate cancellation of UFC 151 has put six weeks between UFC events and with Bellator’s new season not beginning until the end of the month, things seem too quiet.
