The second event of Bellator’s double header is in the books! The top of the Bellator 216 billing was just graced with an opening round welterweight Grand Prix matchup between lethal strikers Michael Page and Paul Daley. Lethal strikers, yes, however the British fighters spent a lot of time grappling it out in a rather competitive affair. At the end of the day, it was MVP who earned the unanimous decision victory. Page now advances to the next round of Bellator’s welterweight Grand Prix to face former two-time champ Douglas Lima.
The bout started with MVP taking the center of the cage as Daley was content to circle along against the cage.
