With no tournament action slated for tonight’s Bellator 28, an
eliminator for a spot in next season’s lightweight bracket took center
stage.
The action went down at the Mahalia Jackson Theater for the Performing Arts in New Orleans and aired live on FOX Sports Net.
In the evening’s featured bout, veteran Rich Clementi took on the
greener Carey Vanier for the right to compete in Bellator’s season-four
lightweight tourney, and early on, it looked like experience would trump
youth.
