Alexis Vila and Eduardo Dantas will meet in Bellator’s season-five bantamweight tournament final with a shot at champ Zach Makovsky on the line.
The Cuban wrestler and Brazilian submission ace each advanced to the
finals of the eight-man bracket with tightly-contested split-decision
wins over Ed West and Marcos Galvao, respectively.
The bouts served as the featured contests of Saturday night’s Bellator
55 event, which took place outside the Cocopah Resort and Casino in
Yuma, Ariz. The night’s main card aired on MTV2.
