Zane Simon, Eddie Mercado, & Victor Rodriguez are back to break down this week’s Bellator event in Temecula, CA. With picks and odds for the entire main card.
While the UFC may be bringing the biggest fight of the week, Bellator 229 has a lot to offer. Not just on the main card, but with a bevy of pre & postlim bouts featuring some notable prospects and potential top contenders. In the main event, former welterweight champion Andrey Koreshkov will take on longtime StrikeForce, UFC, and Bellator action fighter Lorenz Larkin. Throw a lightweight scrap between Saad Awad & Goiti Yamauchi in there, along with bouts for Joe Schilling, Anatoly Tokov, Derek Anderson, and Joey Davis and there should be a lot for fans to keep an eye on.
