Season 3 of Bellator Fighting Championships officially kicked off last night, as 185-pound champion Hector Lombard took on former pro football player Herbert “Whisper” Goodman in the card’s main event.
Although it was a non-title affair, Lombard needed only :38 seconds to put an end to Goodman’s evening.
