Bellator dubbed Melvin Guillard’s promotional debut at Bellator 141 as his “return to the big stage.” Guillard faltered in that spotlight, because the former UFC lightweight contender suffered a split decision loss to Brandon Girtz.
After an exit from the UFC and rough stint in WSOF, Guillard (34-14-2 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) said Bellator would be a shining chapter in his career. It got off to a bad start in the main event contest, because Girtz (12-4 MMA, 5-2 BMMA) for the better of the action through three rounds despite one judge that scored the fight for Guillard in a questionable manner.
