UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Matt Mitrione knows exactly what he’s getting himself into Friday. The heavyweight veteran takes on Timothy Johnson in the co-main event of Bellator 243. Mitrione (13-7 MMA, 4-2 BMMA) said he’s in no way taking Johnson lightly since he knows how doing so has cost other fighters. Mitrione doesn’t think his opponent looks like a big threat, but he knows looks can be deceiving, and he’s coming in full steam ahead Friday
