Predictions: 3 of 5 Winners, 2 Perfect, 200 Points   |   Tied for 304th

Bellator 139 is set for Friday night with 12 bouts. A few misses in terms of weight, including Pat Curran's opponent, but he should be able to shed 0.4 lbs soon enough. [Update: He did.]

Prelims kick off on Spike.com at 645 or 7pm ET followed by the main card on Spike TV at 9pm. 

There will be postlims galore, most likely. 

[Update: Lost one prelim due to missed weight.]

Bellator is full of sadists. So I fully expect Koshcheck/Daley II to be contested under Glory rules on that Dynamite card in September.

Kongo going for the takedown and getting it has got to be the most Bellator moment of the year.

Kongo always been afraid of getting hit and desperately goes for takedowns that he only gets because Heavyweight MMA is an atrocity.

Bellator's heavyweight division this year is the equivalent to Bellator's heavyweight division last year. Bad.
