4 Main Card Predictions For Bellator 127

1. Daniel Straus vs. Justin Wilcox

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jitQTDiChbk Weight Class: Featherweight It was probably a bad sign when we almost forgot that Daniel Straus (22-5) had already lost his featherweight title back to the man he took it from, Pat Curran. Curran, for his part, has lost the belt to Patricio Freire, continuing the game of championship hot potato the Bellator featherweight division has been experiencing this year. Justin Wilcox (14-6) is really just a bounce back fight for Straus. Should Straus get the win, he will quickly find himself back in the title mix (the same can be said of Curran). Should Wilcox upset, it will be a key win for him, but he'll be nowhere near a fight with Freire unless Bellator gets really desperate. Wilcox has had trouble making steps up in competition dating back to his Strikeforce days, so this is a chance, but it's more than likely that Straus takes the win. We'll call this one by TKO in the second.
