BELLATOR 84: Heavyweight Championship, Lightweight Tournament Final and Farewell MTV2, Hello SPIKE!

A title fight and a tournament final is on the bill for Friday Night's Season 7 finale of BELLATOR Fighting Championships.

The vacant heavyweight title-formerly held by Cole Konrad, who just recently announced his retirement-is now on the line between Rich Hale and Alex Volkov. Also, the lightweight tournament final with Dave Jansen and Marcin Held is scheduled for the night. Michael Chandler and his belt awaits both in a future date.

The featherweight tournament final has now been pushed to early 2013. It was supposed to be on last Friday, but Shahbulat Shamhalaev had food poisoning. The New Jersey State Athletic Commission cancelled the fight on behalf of Shamhalaev since they (not the promoter) has the right to do so. It was supposed to be on Friday night, but Rad Martinez had family issues, so it's now a go for early 2013.

Also this is the last BELLATOR event on MTV2 as the promotion upgrades to SPIKE next month. MMA is Coming Home to Spike.

Live on MTV2 and epixHD for the last time. UFC on FX is on as well at 8pm Central.
