A fully loaded Bellator 222 card kicks off tonight from Madison Square Garden in New York City. The main event will see welterweight title fight/Grand Prix matchup Rory MacDonald vs. Neiman Gracie. That matchup will get its own preview post as this write-up will cover the rest of the main card. Don’t forget to take a look at the prelims. There are several notable names and prospects like Aaron Pico, Phil Hawes, and others.
In the co-main event slot, two legends of the sport will collide when former UFC light heavyweight champ Lyoto Machida squares off with a talkative icon who never takes an easy fight in Chael Sonnen.
