Bellator 281 MVP vs Storley: Live Stream Date, Fight Time, TV Channel, TV Schedule, And round by round updates, Odds, Records, Prediction

Bellator’s return to London, England on Friday night afforded Michael “Venom” Page the opportunity to capture gold at home.

It wasn’t the undisputed title on the line at Bellator 281, however. With champ Yaroslav Amosov defending his native Ukraine against invading Russian forces, an interim belt was set to be awarded to the winner of MVP vs. Logan Storley — the latter of whom had jumped at the opportunity after Amosov was forced out of the fight.

In the evening’s co-main event, Lyoto Machida returned to the middleweight division to take on #4-ranked Fabian Edwards. Also of note, Paul Daley was set to compete for the final time, wrapping up his lengthy career against Brazil’s Wendell Giacomo.

Bellator 281 takes place Friday, February 13, 2022 at the SSE Arena at Wembley in London, England. Full results from the event can be found below; the preliminary card streams above. Where available, the main card live stream can be viewed in the embed below.

Prediction

Michael Page vs. Logan Storley: Candidly, this is a tough fight to predict. Page and Storley each have such vast advantages in their preferred arts that it may boil down to who has the greater deficiencies in their opponent's area of expertise. MVP has a serious six-inch height and 8.5-inch reach advantage that greatly benefits his rangy striking game. Conversely, Storley's lower center of gravity invites single leg and double leg takedowns if he can get on the inside. It has been three years since Page was outwrestled by Paul Daley, so we will somewhat excuse that performance. Storley must find a way to crowd Page immediately, either against the fence or with takedowns. Storley's near-blunder against Schiro inspires some hesitancy. It takes just one takedown to completely change a fight's setting. Let's side with Storley this
