Bellator 245 goes live tomorrow night, the first of a two-night doubleheader. Friday’s event features a rematch in the main event as Lyoto Machida takes on Phil Davis at light heavyweight.
Machida, a former UFC light heavyweight champion, first met Davis back at UFC 163 on August 2, 2013. The American got the win that night in Rio, in controversial fashion. Many onlookers were baffled to see Davis land a unanimous decision victory after a less than thrilling performance. Now, at 42-years-old Machida has a chance to exact some vengeance.
The co-main event of Bellator 245 features former UFC bantamweight title challenger Cat Zingano making her promotional debut (at featherweight).
