Gallery Photos: Bellator 216 ceremonial weigh-ins view 24 images (This story originally published in Friday’s print edition of USA TODAY.) NEW YORK – A fight about two years in the making has the potential to be one of the biggest in Bellator MMA history. If nothing else, Scott Coker, the promotion’s president, believes it will be the biggest MMA fight between a pair of British fighters – and he’ll reserve judgment on the bigger-picture significance of Michael Page (13-0 MMA, 8-0 BMMA) vs. Paul Daley (40-16-2, 6-3) until the fight is over. But when the Brits headline Bellator 216 on Saturday (DAZN, 10 p.m. ET), the second of back-to-back events on consecutive nights at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., Coker at least will feel a sense of relief. “These fights are not easy to put together, and they don’t happen all the time,” Coker told USA TODAY Sports.
