BELLATOR 135 : Warren vs Galvao 2 - Preview & Predictions

Bellator returns to Winstar, World Casino Thackerville, Oklahoma, this weekend (Sat., March 28, 2015, 4 a.m. IST). The main event features a rematch of a fight that last took place in 2011, when Joe Warren received a controversial unanimous decision over Marcos Galvao.Here is my Preview of the Main Card & predictions for the entire Bellator 135:  PRELIMINARY CARD (Spike.com, 4 am IST):Rashad Coulter Defeats Jeremiah O’Neal via KO/TKO.Sean Holden Defeats Tim Roman via Decision.Neal Ewing Defeats Logan Nail via KO/TKOEmmanuel Sanchez Defeats Alejandro Villalobos via Submission.Brad Mitchell Defeats Stephen Banaszak via Decision.Klayton Mai Defeats Xavier Siller via Decision.George Pacurariu Defeats Ivan Cole via Decision. Main CARD (Spike TV, 6:30 am IST):

#1 Ryan Couture (9-3) vs. Dakota Cochrane (18-7)

The lightweight clash between Ryan Couture and Dakota Cochrane might just be the most evenly matched fight on the main card.

Couture, son of legendary Randy Couture, has already impressed in his Bellator debut, submitting Tom Bagnasco in the first round by RNC. Both men are excellent grapplers, and Couture picks up 55-percent of his wins via submission, with Cochrane winning by tap 38-percent of the time. 

Couture’s last two losses have come to Al Iaquinta and Ross Pearson. Who are some of the better 155-pound fighters on the UFC roster & Cochrane isn’t even anywhere near their level. I fully expect Couture to take control the cage & pace of the fight with his grappling.

Prediction: Couture wins via Decision.
