Very interesting card.

Tito Ortiz fighting for the light heavyweight title.

3 Glory kickboxing matches (including a vacant title fight at light heavyweight) also fighting is ex UFC and Strikeforce fighter Paul Daley.

4 man light heavyweight tournament, with the winners of the two semi-final matches fighting twice in one night!

Tournament includes ex UFC fighter Phil Davis and MMA veteran "King" Mo Lawal.

Should be an interesting night of fights.

I just saw that. Bellator stepping up with that . There should be a lot of MMA fans tuning in that night. I know I will!

Shizz, do you think Tito will win?

I have not watched McGeary fight, but I know that Tito is well passed his prime. I'd say McGeary wins unless Tito gets lucky, kind of like he did when he subbed (Guillotine) Ryan Bader a while back in the UFC.

Nice knockout by Davis. Seems like a genuine good guy.

I am going with Tito. Mainly because he has "tit" in his name. Kidding, but he was in really good shape his last fight and looks better tonight.

Nice to see him finish these fights tonight. Many of his later bouts in the UFC went to decisions.

McGeary isn't used to fighting guys the caliber (at least in his prime) of Tito Ortiz. I believe McGeary is 6'6, so it will be interesting to see how Tito handles his height advantage.

Shit! Tito got careless.

Tito was doing exactly what he needed to, if he wanted any chance of winning. He would have been picked apart on the feet, and McGeary is much better with submissions.

Tito needed to evolve a long time ago. Work on improving his ground game, by going for more submissions and learning how to defend them better. He also should have really tried to improve his striking (Guys like Werdum and Mir proved it is possible)

Tito's fighting style was a relic of the early days of mma. Not to mention that he has been through many wars, and is 40.

He was done years ago.
