The organization picked 10 total fighters from those open tryouts, and they’ll be part of the “Bellator: Salute the Troops” and Bellator 236 cards in December, the promotion today announced. The fighters who earned shots with Bellator are featherweight Braydon Akeo , bantamweight Pierre Daguzan (5-3 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), lightweight Keoni Diggs (7-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), welterweight Hunter Ewald (0-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), bantamweight Kaylan Gorospe (0-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), lightweight Scotty Hao (4-2 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), bantamweight Cheyden Leialoha (7-1 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), bantamweight Swayne Lunasco (7-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), flyweight Jamie Thorton (6-5 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) and welterweight Ben Wilhelm (3-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA). Akeo (3-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) gets a tough assignment right out of the gate against Tywan Claxton (5-1 MMA, 5-1 BMMA). Claxton will be looking to rebound from the first loss of his career, a submission setback against Emmanuel Sanchez in the opening round of Bellator’s featherweight tournament in September. Akeo turned pro a year ago and is 3-0 out of the gate
