All 16 fighters slated for Thursday’s Bellator Fighting Championships 18
event, including catchweight “super fight” opponents Hector Lombard and
Jay Silva, who meet in non-title bout, are now official for the event.
The weigh-ins took place Wednesday at the Monroe Civic Center in Monroe,
La., which also hosts Thursday’s event.
Bellator 18 also features the semifinals of the promotion’s season-two
featherweight tournament as eight fighters battle for the right to face
Alvarez in a season-three title fight.
