Christmas is over and for fight fans, so begins the punctuation to the end of the year, which means a barrage of fights spread over just a few scant days.

The festivities kick off on Saturday with Bellator 237 from the Saitama Super Arena. On the surface, cooperation between two of the biggest promotions on the planet, especially on such a grand stage, seems like every fan’s dream.
