Rick Hawn and Ron Keslar weren’t supposed to be in the Bellator Season 9 welterweight tournament, but here they are in the finals. Hawn (17-2 MMA, 9-2 BMMA) joined Keslar (11-3 MMA, 2-0 BMMA) in the competition after Matt Riddle and Mark Scanlon were forced to withdraw with injuries.

For Keslar, it could be his biggest career opportunity after fighting the bulk of his career on preliminary cards.
