The Bellator Fighting Championships Summer series comes to an end in Tunica Mississippi which was held in the Harrah's resort. Bellator 73 showcased 3 sponsored fighters in Ryan Martinez, Marcos Galvoa, and Travis Wiuff.
Ryan Martinez was the first fight of the night on the main card and also his debut on Bellator wearing the new Future Legend verbiage shirt "Haters Fuel Me". Ryan looked good against Mike Wessel both trading huge shots back and forth but couldn't close out the fight the way he wanted to and lost the fight by split decision (29-28, 30-27, 29-28) Ryan will be back next season ready to get back in the ring to do damage.
Marcos "Loro" Galvoa was up next in the bantamweight tournament Championship vs Luis Nogueira which started off with both fighters letting the punches fly which resulted in Marcos landing some head shots that stunned Nogueira that led to a TKO. The victory puts Galvao in a title fight against Bellator bantamweight champion Eduardo Dantas.
Travis "Diesel" Wiuff who was the light heavy weight favorite for the Bellator tournament was stopped short in the first round by Atilla Vegh with a KO. We will see Travis back in the Fall tournament better than ever continuing his road to the belt.
