Bellator's 5th season continues tonight! Stepping into the cage on the main card are the BANTAMWEIGHT tournament semi-finalists.  The fights are LIVE on MTV2 at 9:00pm eastern time.

And like the other events this season, you'll also be able to catch the prelims on Spike.com. To watch them, head on over to Spike.com at 7:00pm eastern time. I think the right page is this one:

http://www.spike.com/video-clips/sl0uyl/mma-video-bellator-prelims-live-stream


Your prediction results and leaderboard ranking will automatically show up in any posts made here. If you want to embed your full listing of picks you can do that also.   Your picks, as well as a link to embed the image, and the top of the site-wide leaderboard will all be available in the right column on this thread.

Enjoy the fights and good luck in your predictions! 

REMINDER: No requesting of or posting links to illegal streams of the MTV2 broadcast.

I think they said that was the last one, maybe they're saving Escudero for the main card because he's fairly known because he was on TUF.

So far I've picked 4/5 fights with one perfect. I'm on a roll!!!! Hopefully I top out on the main card. Then that means my picker is back. For the last two weeks, my picks have sucked horribly. This weekend, I'm coming back to form.

I think it is the last one... this one goes to a decision doesn't it?
