Bellator has found a way to ace the MMA Grand Prix format ever since Scott Coker took over, and their latest one involving the light heavyweight division is rolling on this weekend with its semi-final matchups.
The semi-finals will be missing Anthony Johnson as he continues to recover from his unknown illness but stepping in for him is a veteran of the Dana White’s Contender Series and LFA in Julius Anglickas. Everyone is comparing this situation to when Daniel Cormier stepped in to fight Antonio Silva back in 2011 with the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix.
