Ryan Bader ’s done so well at heavyweight these past couple years, you can almost forget he’s had a long and successful run as a light heavyweight, as well.

That bout went down at Bellator 186 in November 2017, when Bader showed off his firepower with a second-round TKO of the always tough Linton Vassell. Monday, Bellator announced the postponement of Bellator 242, which was scheduled for May 9 in San Jose, Calif
