What to Watch For: Bellator 149

Everyone can agree that Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie have seen their better days, and those days were a long, long time ago. Nevertheless, a certain amount of train-wreck intrigue surrounds their forthcoming third meeting.

The two Ultimate Fighting Championship hall of famers will lock horns in the Bellator 149 main event on Friday at the Toyota Center in Houston, as Bellator MMA utilizes two of the sport’s best known figures as the anchors for its first tent-pole event of 2016. Gracie holds a 1-0-1 advantage in the series between the two legends.
