Just saw that Bellator 119 is headed back to Rama, Ont. on May 9 and 118 is on May 2 but 117 is April 18. Wonder why they're skipping April 25?

maybe they are going to try and stick their second attempt at a PPV in there

Edit: Maybe not UFC 172 is that weekend. would be dumb to try and compete with that.

I bet it's because they couldn't secure a venue or something on the 25th, so they pushed 118 back a week. Best excuse I can come up with

I haven't looked at he schedule, but I know in the past they have taken a week off and do a recap show that highlights the tournament fights before they hit the finals.  But like @hiblet said, it's Bellator so who really knows.

Bellator is the number 1 MMA promotion.

I think you nailed it Oldman, there's 4 tournaments (+ the pathetic 4-man LHW one cuz Rampage ain't about to fight 3 times in 2 months) and they're got them scheduled for 110-113 while 114-117 only have a couple bouts each so far so those are probably the semis then the week off which means 121 (5/23) would be the last of this "season". 

The only question is will they make us wait 'til 5-23 to see the LHW "tourney" final?

The LHW tourney final will be on the Alvarez/Chandler PPV. no way they waste Rampage vs Mo with that in the works. now if Rampage or Mo lose that could change it but probably not if one of them loses they will hype the **** out of whomever beat them.

Oh yeah I keep forgetting they're actually still trying to do a PPV. I'll believe it when I see it at this point.

According to Bellator's website, Fadiora/Woods is a MW bout and Bannon/Outlaw is a LW, not a 151 catchweight.
