Bellator 169 preview, predictions for 'King Mo vs Ishii' on Spike TV
Bellator 169: "King Mo vs. Ishii" takes place this tomorrow night (Fri., Dec. 16, 2016) at 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland. It's a co-promoted show that offers some BAMMA fare for the local fans, and some Bellator fare for the live viewers on Spike TV, the latter of which we'll be focusing on in this preview.
Like so many other Bellator cards of late this one has had significant shifts in the final weeks before it took place, but the top match with a "moneyweight" fighting an Olympic gold medalist has stayed in tact through it all, and a popular local fighter will look to pick up his second Bellator win.
Let's break it down:
265 lbs.: Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal (19-5, 1 NC) vs. Satoshi Ishii (14-6-1)
