Tonight's weigh-in event for Bellator 127 will take place at Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, Calif., with a start time of 8 p.m. ET.
This week's show features the return of former featherweight champion Daniel Straus, who lost the belt back to Pat Curran at Bellator 112. Coincidentally, Curran himself lost the title in a rematch with Patricio "Pitbull" Freire at Bellator 123, putting both fighters on a quest to get back a title they once held.
"The Silverback" Justin Wilcox has a golden opportunity to play the spoiler in this scenario, as a decisive win over a former champion could put the Strikeforce and Bellator veteran at the head of the line to challenge Freire. If on the other hand Straus emerges victorious, it could lead to a rubber match between Straus and Curran to crown a new contender.
The co-main event sees long-time MMA fighter and Bellator standout Karo "The Heat" Parisyan in a welterweight scrap with Fernando "The Menifee Maniac" Gonzalez, a late replacement for the injured Marius Zaromskis, owner of an impressive decision win over Bellator fighter "Psycho" Karl Amoussou.
That's not all.
