The official weigh-in event for Bellator 59's Saturday evening fight card took place today (November 25, 2011) at Palladium Ballroom of Caesars Atlantic City in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
For once, all 18 fighters who stepped on the scale successfully made weight.
Bellator 59 features two tournament finals on the same card. In heavyweight action, "Big Monster" Thiago Santos takes on "The American Soldier" Eric Prindle in a bout where both men are expected to step on the scales at the 265 pound limit.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, two of the best bantamweight prospects in the world, Eduardo Dantas and Alexis Vila square off in 135-pound action.
Opening up the main card will be a pair of lightweight bouts as two Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) veterans Kurt Pellegrino and Phillipe Nover do battle with two Bellator season four lightweight tournament fighters Patricky Freire and Marcin Held, respectively.
