Bellator 220 is in the books, and the fans were displeased with both championship bouts but for separate reasons. Rory MacDonald and Ilima-Lei Macfarlane defended their respective titles, but MacDonald fought Jon Fitch to a draw, and Macfarlane’s win over Veta Arteaga ended in anti-climactic fashion after a brutal cut opened up Arteaga’s forehead. Here’s how the whole night of fights played out.
Rory MacDonald vs. Jon Fitch ends in majority draw (48-46 Fitch, 47-47, 47-47), but MacDonald advances by virtue of defending his title successfully
It was a lackluster showing from reigning Bellator MMA welterweight champion Rory MacDonald, but it was enough to get him to the next round of the promotion’s eight-man tournament.
