Predictions: 1 of 2 Winners, 1 Perfect, 100 Points   |   Tied for 325th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for an epic night of Coker mismatches. 

The average favorite on the main card checks in close to -1000. 

Should make for some nice gifs, if nothing else. 

The action kicks off on Spike.com at 7pm ET before switching to Spike TV at 9pm. 

Enjoy!

That was certainly one of the biggest upsets I have seen in a while. Just the nature of it too, it looked like another easy night for Halsey. Immediately dropped like a sack of potatoes from that liver kick.

Jimmy Smith ‏@jimmysmithmma  8m8 minutes ago

@CrooklynMMA they start the 2nd round slinging bombs!! Lachinov is getting the better of it but lands a cup shot and breaks the action


Jimmy Smith ‏@jimmysmithmma  7m7 minutes ago

@CrooklynMMA Lachinov starts throwing kicks, mostly to the legs but eats a nice left before getting a takedown






Jimmy Smith ‏@jimmysmithmma  55s55 seconds ago

@CrooklynMMA Lachinov steps over for a kneebar. Kotau seems to be defending well but Lachinov straightens it out and gets the tap!! 2:57

Wow, Carvalho's been an underdog in all his Bellator fights and won them all and is now champ. Halsey's career has sure gotten derailed, partially of his own volition.
