Eddie Alvarez defeats Eric Reynolds at "Bellator V"

“Bellator V” is in the books after a stacked card entertained fans at Hara Arena in Dayton, Ohio tonight. It was the semi-final round of Bellator Fighting Championshiips’ Lightweight Tournament and Eddie Alvarez and Toby Imada both won by submission in round three, not only collecting a cool $50,000 in the process, but now they go to the finals for a chance to earn the $100,000 grand prize.

In non-tournament bouts, Nashville MMA’s resident top heavyweight prospect Dave Herman destroyed his opponent Eric Reynolds via a flying knee that put him on the canvas and finished it up with punches causing the referee to stop the action at 4:46 of round 1.

UFC heavyweight veteran Dan Evensen got back on the winning track in his first post-UFC fight. Evensen stuffed a take-down attempt early in round two, reversed it, got full mount, and landed sufficient ground and pound for the referee to halt the action and give “The Viking” the victory.
