Bellator 290 is being talked about because it is the swan song performance of a sports legend in Fedor Emelianenko. The undercard leading up to the main card and the final fight of The Last Emperor’s career was loaded.
So many great matchups and notable names that it had to even add a postlim card due to the fights we did see going as long as they did.
The card started slowly with several drawn-out decisions but within the final hour before the main card on CBS, the action picked up.
