Bellator 167 takes place TONIGHT (Sat., Dec. 3, 2016) at WinStar World Casino and Resort in Thackerville, Oklahoma. Once on the cusp of Bantamweight title contention, Darrion Caldwell suffered a humbling loss to Joe Taimanglo this past July, marking the first professional defeat of his mixed martial arts (MMA) career. He'll look to right that wrong later on this evening in the Spike TV-televised main event. These two will meet again on a main card that also includes three other divisional scraps.
Let's break it down:
135 lbs.: Darrion Caldwell (9-1) vs. Joe Taimanglo (23-6-1)
Bellator and Darrion Caldwell undoubtedly agree on one thing -- he was next.
