Saturday may prove to be the biggest and best day in the MMA calendar year. It could also be the biggest joke. But that's what fans sign up for when they tune in for Bellator events. You just never know when you could see some of the best knockout artists in the game, like Michael Page knocking out his foe with a flying knee, or the circus show of Kimbo Slice vs. Dada 5000.
Bellator 180 and the PPV that follows appears to lean toward being great, with some of the best young fighters on Bellator's roster in action this weekend. It also features a pair of those sideshow elements atop the PPV with Chael Sonnen against Wanderlei Silva and Matt Mitrione against Fedor Eemelianenko. Here's how the full fight card for both Bellator 180 and Bellator PPV shake out with the latest odds from Bovada.
