'Bellator 117' Results: Douglas Lima Wins Bellator Welterweight Championship

bjpenndotcom - April 18, 2014

Douglas ‘The Phenom’ Lima is the new Bellator Welterweight Champion. Rick Hawn came to fight with a specific strategy in mind and that was his eventual downfall. Despite repeatedly getting kicked in the leg, he refused to adapt his gameplan to that of Lima’s and continued to press forward, attacking without checking the leg kicks.
