In the days leading up to Bellator’s historic Bellator 200 event, which takes place May 26 in London, we’re counting down 10 of the biggest moments in the promotion’s history. Today, we take a look at the history of Bellator’s first champions in each weight class. Bellator’s first tournament season ended with the crowning of the first four champions in the history of the promotion. Joe Soto took possession of the lightweight crown at Bellator 10 with a second-round submission win over Yahir Reyes. Lyman Good acquired the welterweight title one week later with a first-round TKO win over Omar De La Cruz at Bellator 11
