Bellator 216 welterweight headliners Michael Page and Paul Daley were among the six fighters to have drug-test samples collected on Wednesday in New York ahead of this weekend’s fights.
MMA Fighting’s Marc Raimondi confirmed an initial report by ESPN that in addition to Page and Daley, Bellator 215 main event heavyweight Sergei Kharitonov, and Bellator 216 co-main event heavyweights Mirko Cro Cop and Roy Nelson were all subject to random drug tests. Kharitonov fights against Matt Mitrione, who is also expected to be tested.
