What to Watch For: Bellator 179

Bellator MMA may soon know whether or not Rory MacDonald was a worthwhile investment.

The Tristar Gym staple and former King of the Cage champion makes his organizational debut opposite Paul Daley in the Bellator 179 headliner on Friday at the SSE Arena in London. Their three-round battle carries potential title implications at 170 pounds and buoys a five-fight main card scheduled to air on Spike TV via tape delay (9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT).

MacDonald will enter the cage on a two-fight losing streak.
