Bellator Fighting Championship crowned their second of four champions last night when New York’s Lyman Good dismantled Omar De La Cruz for the Welterweight belt.  Afterward, I had a chance to talk with Good, Nick Pace, and Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney.   Here are some thoughts from a great night at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville CT.

* Remember the name: Nick Pace. He had the finish of the night with a flying knee to the head of Collin Tebo which ended that 135 pound contest instantly. Pace is from Team Tiger Schulman and is one to watch. Per his finish, think Jose Aldo or James Irvin. It will be a youtube hit.

* Lyman Good is better than good. He made his Bellator title bout look easy stopping Omar De La Cruz in the first round. He told me he is going to take a vacation and help out his family with the 175k he pocketed. Dude is a role model in and out of the cage.

* Bellator boss Bjorn Rebney has promised an english version outlet for Bellator for the next tournament. More to come on that here and in my video interview with him appearing on FoxFightGame.com soon.

* Bellator is clearly a TV product at the moment. Arena was 25% full.

* Rebney said there were 32 ESPN executives in the crowd last night. Hope they liked the action.

* All four Tiger Schulman fighters competing last night won.

* Rebney said he recruited Lyman Good to fight at 185 and was surprised he wanted to drop to 170. Good is enormous at 170 and if the cut did not bother him - he will dominate at this weight.

* Almost forgot. When asked in the presser who he would love to fight,  Good did not hesitate and said George St. Pierre.

* Anybody driving up I95 on a Friday afternoon - allow triple the time. And bring a good book for the traffic jam.

* Krispy Kreme at the Mohegan Sun was firing out fresh glazed donuts at 2am. I passed after much internal debate

* Jimmie Rivera won an exciting back and forth up and down battle over Nick Garcia from California. Kid fights with unrelenting speed. Gives opponent little time for composure.

* Rebney is totally committed to the tournament concept and likes the idea that the figthter controls his destiny and not an executive.

* Watch for video interviews with Lyman Good, Bjorn Rebney, and Nick Pace later next week on FoxFightGame.com.
