The second installment of Bellator’s double header kicks off this Saturday from the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut. Bellator 216 will be capped off with the long awaited bout between the veteran striker Paul Daley and the undefeated sharpshooter Michael “Venom” Page. That matchup will get its own preview post as this write-up will cover the rest of the main card.
The co-main event for Bellator 216 will be a heavyweight title eliminator to see who will be first to face the newly crowned champ Ryan Bader. Longtime MMA veteran Cheick Kongo will be rematching Bellator’s last heavyweight champ, Vitaly Minakov, who will be making his return to the promotion.
