The Bellator Nyc fight card's main event features former three-time UFC title challenger Chael Sonnen against former Pride champion Wanderlei Silva.
The Bellator Nyc Fight card also features a welterweight title fight between champion Douglas Lima and Lorenz Larkin; a lightweight title bout with Michael Chandler defending against Brent Primus; and the highly anticipated MMA debut of decorated wrestler Aaron Pico as he faces Zach Freeman.
Bader scored a takedown with 15 seconds left in the round but Davis reversed and had side control as the horn sounded.
Bader let his hands go a bit more than the opening sequence, popping the jab and landed a hard overhand right near the end of the round.
9:24: The headlining fight of the prelims is up next, for the Bellator light heavyweight title as Phil Davis defends against Ryan Bader.
