BJPenn.com’s FIST-ta-CUFF Radio kicks off show 178 with a man you don’t want to sleep on when it comes to The Bellator Middleweight Tournament. Brett “Fudoshin” Cooper opens up the show and we have so much to discuss, from his five fight win streak, to his match-up in the Bellator Semi-Final, to having to overcome the beast that is the Bellator Tournament format. Brett has dominated his fights to get to his Semi-final match up with Dan Cramer. The fight should be a typical Bellator finals match up, which just screams fireworks for fans. Get ready to get to know a man who is looking for a title fight and hungry to pick up another win inside the Bellator cage to get to his shot at the belt. Follow Brett on twitter @BrettCopperMMA

This Sunday on BJPenn.com’s FIST-ta-CUFF Radio, our third guest Nick Piedmont is ready to step back in the Bellator Cage and go to war. We will talk to Nick about how his training has been going at one of the best gyms in the nation, getting the call to come back and fight for Bellator, and the details on the call. Nick is making the most of his move to San Diego, CA and training with the rest of the team at Alliance MMA. Nick is no longer the new guy at the gym, but another member of the team and of course we will talk to him about how his gym life has changed since the move. Nick is an exciting prospect to keep an eye on and something tells me that the man known as Nicky P will be looking to make a statement March 7th, in CA. Follow Nick on twitter @NickPiedmontMMA
