Melvin Guillard dropped his Bellator debut by decision, but it appears that a badly injured hand may have played a part in that.

He dropped a decision to Girtz, despite almost finishing him late in the bout. After the fight though, Guillard's ATT coach Din Thomas posted a picture on Instagram of a Guillard injury:
