Bellator action returns this weekend with an event doubleheader that will see the heavyweight grand prix tournament semifinals unfold over consecutive nights. Bellator 207, which takes place Friday at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., and airs on Paramount and streams on DAZN following prelims on MMAjunkie, is the first of the two cards. In the main event, Matt Mitrione (13-5 MMA, 4-0 BMMA) and Ryan Bader (25-5 MMA, 3-0 BMMA) will attempt to punch their ticket to the finals of the eight-man tournament when they clash in a matchup that will see one man lose under the Bellator banner for the first time. Although the heavyweights are the center-point of the card, Bellator 207 has some other goods to offer, as well. For more on the numbers, check below for 23 pre-event facts.
