Ryan Bader (26-5 MMA, 4-0 BMMA), Bellator’s light heavyweight champion, outworked natural heavyweight Matt Mitrione (13-6 MMA, 4-1 BMMA) for a unanimous decision in the Bellator 207 main event this past Friday night and moved into the heavyweight grand prix tournament final. There, in January, he’ll take on the legendary Fedor Emelianenko (38-5 MMA, 2-1 BMMA), who stopped Chael Sonnen (30-16-1 MMA, 2-2 BMMA) in the first round of the Bellator 208 main event Saturday to advance to the final on the other half of the bracket. A win for Bader over Emelianenko would make him a simultaneous two-division champion, just like Daniel Cormier is right now in the UFC.

The light heavyweight semifinal served as the main event of Saturday’s PFL 9 event, which aired on NBCSN from Long Beach Arena in Long Beach, Calif. Magalhaes wasted little time moving forward, throwing a punch and kick before reaching down to grab the legs, moving into the clinch. Magalhaes then willingly went to the floor, looking to lock up a triangle choke. Ataev was able to pull free, driving a few nasty hammerfists into his opponent’s head, but Magalhaes rolled and turned, scrambling to top position and looking to work from the dominant spot. With his position established, Magalhaes slipped around to side control and then north-south, then turning to the kimura, stepping over the head and cranking on the right arm until Ataev was forced to tap in rapid fashion at the 1:58 mark of the first.

Whoever beats the other will move on to the semifinals later that night. The roads taken by them to get here, however, were quite different. A 26-year-old American Top Team product, Brazil’s Schulte – nicknamed “Russian” because of his blonde beard – came into PFL’s inaugural season as a mostly unknown fighter. He was a heavy underdog heading into PFL 2 against Chris Wade but edged him out before going on to beat yet another UFC vet, Jason High, at PFL 5 .
