Former Bellator welterweight champion Douglas Lima is in the running for another title or two.  Lima (30-7 MMA, 12-3 BMMA) will square off with Michael “Venom” Page in Saturday night’s Bellator 221 co-feature. It’s the semifinal of the welterweight grand prix, which means he’s two fights away from the tourney crown and $1 million prize that goes with it. And with the other semi featuring current welterweight champ Rory MacDonald against Neiman Gracie for the title, a win in the finals would also make Lima Bellator welterweight champ. Bellator 221 takes place Saturday at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Ill., near Chicago. The main card streams on DAZN following prelims on MMA Junkie.
