Bellator has no events for the next month, but the organization returns in a big way on Jan. 20.
That’s when reigning welterweight champion Douglas Lima (29-6 MMA, 11-2 BMMA) meets Rory MacDonald (19-4 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) in Bellator 192’s headliner, which airs on Spike from The Forum in Inglewood, Calif.
Lima is No. 7 in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA welterweight rankings, and MacDonald is a few spots ahead at No. 4.
As far as non-UFC fights go, this is one of the biggest available.
In the promotion’s latest “What to Watch” video, veteran commentator Jimmy Smith discusses one of the big storylines heading into Bellator’s 2018 opener.
“The question in this fight is will Rory MacDonald stand and trade with the always-dangerous Douglas Lima?” Smith said. “Or will he go for a quick takedown (with his) ground-and-pound submission game?”
