Slice vs. Shamrock: the unfinished business

Slice and Shamrock had first been scheduled to fight at EliteXC: Heat in 2008. Shamrock withdrew after suffering an accidental cut during warmups, and Slice instead fought Seth Petruzelli on short notice. Their Bellator meeting finally happened seven years later, with both men returning to MMA after their last appearances in 2010.

Shamrock scored an early takedown and threatened Slice with a rear-naked choke. Slice escaped, created space, and finished the fight with punches at 2:22 of the opening round. In the co-main event, Weichel appeared to have Freire hurt before Freire answered with a counter left hook that ended the fight 32 seconds into Round 2.
