Bellator 71 results and LIVE fight coverage for 'Wiuff vs Davis' TONIGHT (June 22) on Spike.com

Bellator Fighting Championships returns TONIGHT (June 22, 2012) as it heads to the Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack and Resort in Chester, West Virginia, for Bellator 71.

Headlining the main event of Bellator 71 will be the final light heavyweight quarterfinal bout of the 205-pound tournament between Travis Wiuff and Chris Davis. Wiuff is currently enjoying a four fight win streak and has won seven of his last eight. Davis, on the other hand looks to get back on track after losing to Christian M'Pumbu at Bellator 38.

Also on tap are the remainder of the Bellator 'Summer Series" light heavyweight tournament quarterfinals, which includes season five middleweight quarterfinalist Zelg Galesic, Slovakian Attila Vegh, part-time police officer Beau Tribolet, former MFC light heavyweight champion Emanuel Newton, and Renzo Gracie fighter Roy Boughton.

Former Strikeforce Heavyweight contender Brett Rogers makes his return to action as he makes his promotional debut to take on former friend and training partner Kevin Asplund. Though their rivalry isn't exactly Jon Jones vs. Rashad Evans like, the back story between the two is rather juicy and it will be interesting to see whether "Grim" can get back on track and put a halt to his two fight skid.
