Predictions: 7 of 9 Winners, 3 Perfect, 425 Points   |   Tied for 3rd with 4 others

Bellator's 5th season CONCLUDES tonight! Stepping into the cage are the finals of two of the tournaments: the big boys at heavyweight, and the little guys at bantamweight.  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.

And I knew I should have picked Milliard when making the picks but the majority shafted my pick.

Lol Milliard looked like he was trying to get him in a headlock.

My thought process here was that Milliard was 1-2 with some fights a few years ago, but those 2 losses were against very tough guys who are more advanced than your average Bellator prelim fighter.   And... Milliard looked big and strong.  At this level, big and strong can often do the trick.

I didn't watch fight footage or anything.  That's your scientific research right there, folks.

I'm trying to think of a MW I've seen in Bellator that Milliard could beat. Can't think of one.
