Douglas Lima wants ‘round six’ with Rory MacDonald in Bellator tournament final

Douglas Lima wants to recapture the welterweight championship through Bellator’s 170-pound grand prix, and it would feel even better to meet his last foe in the tournament final.

Facing Andrey Koreshkov in a quarter-final bout Saturday night in San Jose, Calif., Lima guarantees he’s focused solely on this trilogy bout at Bellator 206. However, he hopes that current titleholder Rory MacDonald, who defeated him via decision in January, is successful in his journey as well so that they might fight again.

“Round six. Let’s get it done,” Lima told MMA Fighting.
