Bellator 172 Live Stream: Watch Fedor Emelianenko vs Matt Mitrione Online

The return of Fedor Emelianenko is finally here, as he is set to take on UFC veteran Matt Mitrione in the main event of Bellator 172 Saturday night on Spike TV.
After suffering three straight defeats in Strikeforce, Emelianenko (36-4) temporarily “retired” before returning to action in his home country of Russia just months later. Since then, Emelianenko has hauled off five straight wins.
Mitrione (11-5), meanwhile, was cut from the UFC in 2016 after two straight defeats. He has since hauled off two consecutive knockout wins under the Bellator banner.
Also featured on tonight’s main card are notable UFC veterans Josh Koscheck, Cheick Kongo and Josh Thomson.
