Bellator 120 saw the return of Rampage Jackson. In his way was a popular commodity in the form of Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal.
The fight was a heated rivalry between the two big personalities. When the fight actually happened, Jackson took a unanimous decision in a closely contested bout.
Here is what we learned from the fight.
King Mo Lawal
The fight was close. Many people thought that Rampage Jackson won, but it was seriously close.
The feud is legitimate. This fight had some drama, though it failed to live up to expectations. It was hard with the build up though.
A second bout with King Mo would be big time. They failed to finish each other, but if they were to throw down again, I am sure a few fans would turn in for it.
Emanuel Newton
This fight is obvious. That is because the winner of Rampage Jackson-King Mo Lawal was supposed to fight Emaunuel Newton for the Bellator Light Heavyweight Championship.
Newton is an interesting fighter with some dynamic techniques. He has the wrestling and athleticism to make Rampage uncomfortable and make this a fight.
Newton has the chance to be a star. Rampage has the name to make him a star. That's why this fight is interesting.
Newton wins, he is a champion that the UFC pursues. Rampage wins, he proves he is not done in this crazy sport.
