Bellator 157: Justin Lawrence is a savage, ready to unleash the beast on Isao Kobayashi

Bellator 157: "Dynamite 2" comes to Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Mo., this Friday night (June 24, 2016), featuring a Heavyweight main event between Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Satoshi Ishii.

Earlier in the night, in a fight that will headline the Spike.com "Prelims" undercard, two Featherweight fighters with huge upsides will collide in "The American Kidd" Justin Lawrence and Isao Kobayashi. Each man has something to prove after recent losses in the Bellator cage. Kobayashi is a former "King of Pancrase" and was highly touted on his Bellator debut, but Goiti Yamauchi wore him down and choked him out at Bellator 144.
