First Round Fights Announced For Bellator Featherweight Tournament

From the official Bellator press release comes the first round fights for the featherweight tournament:

April 8th
Joe Warren (2-1) vs. Eric Marriott (17-2)
Georgi Karakhanyan (12-1-1) vs. Bao Quach (17-9-1)

April 15th
Wilson Reis (9-1) vs. Shad Lierley (5-2)
Patricio Pitbull (12-0) vs. William Romero (5-0)

Each of the fights will be broadcast live in prime time on FOX Sports Net. Highlights will be shown the following Saturday night in special action-packed shows on NBC and Telemundo.

If you put a gun to my head and had me pick the winners here I’d have to take Warren, Karakhanyan, Reis and Pitbull. Those four men would make for tremendous fights for the semi-finals.
