Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-06-17, disappointing fight between Marcos Galvao and Eduardo Dantas: it gets two stars.

The black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and current Bellator champion Marcos Galvao entered this fight with a record of 17-6-1 (29% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.14 bantamweight in the world. He suffered his last loss when he faced Eduardo Dantas in their first fight in 2013 (=Dantas vs Galvao I), since then he has won four bouts beating Joe Warren in his last one (=Warren vs Galvao 2).
His opponent, the former Bellator Bw champion Eduardo Dantas, has a mma record of 17-4-0 (59% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.8 in the same weight class (currently the #1 in this division is Dominick Cruz). ‘Dudu’ Dantas lost to Joe Warren in 2014 (=Dantas vs Warren) but he came back to win in 2015 against Mike Richman (=Dantas vs Richman). ‘Loro’ Galvao vs Dantas 2, main event of the Bellator 156, is valid for the Bellator bantamweight title (Galvao’s first defense).
