All 16 fighters slated for Thursday’s Bellator Fighting Championships 19
event, including budding welterweight rivals Ben Askren and Ryan
Thomas, have hit the scales in anticipation of the event.
The weigh-ins took place Wednesday at the Verizon Theatre in Grand
Prairie, Texas, which also hosts Thursday’s event.
Bellator 19 features the Askren vs. Thomas rematch, as well the season’s
other welterweight semifinal bout, Steve Carl vs. Dan Hornbuckle, and a
non-title bout with featherweight champion Joe Soto and Diego Saraiva.
