Bellator 208 is upon us as legends collide in the main event, when Fedor Emelianenko squares off with Chael Sonnen in the semi-finals of the heavyweight GP. That matchup will be covered in its own separate post, as this one will cover the rest of the main card. The co-main event for Bellator 208 will see Benson Henderson in the final fight of his Bellator contract, taking on the 23-9 Saad Awad, with the winner likely to be considered for a lightweight title shot...provided that Henderson re-signs.
Before that, longtime MMA veteran Cheick Kongo will put his six-fight winning streak on the line when he faces off with new Bellator acquisition Timothy Johnson.
