The Bloody Elbow staff has made its predictions for Bellator 232, and they’re a bit lopsided. Everyone is picking Douglas Lima to get the better of Rory MacDonald in the rematch, thus becoming welterweight champ once again (as well as earning a $1 million prize). We are split on the co-main between Paul Daley and Saad Awad.
Note: Predictions are entered throughout the week and collected the day before the event. Explanations behind each pick are not required and some writers opt not to do so for their own reasons. For example, if Phil Mackenzie entered all of his predictions on Wednesday without adding in any explanations, he has no idea if he’s going to be the only one siding with one fighter for any given fight.
