On Friday, June 19, Bellator MMA hosted its 138th event, dubbed Unfinished Business,Ā from theĀ Scottrade Center in St. Louis.

The main event featured a fight seven years in the making as Kevin ā€œKimbo Sliceā€ Ferguson locked horns with Ken Shamrock. The pair were expected to meet in 2008, but Shamrock suffered a cut in training and was forced out of the bout at the last minute. The 41-year-old Slice had not fought in MMA since falling via TKO at UFC 113 to Matt Mitrione in 2010. Like his opponent, the 51-year-old Shamrock had been out of action since 2010.

In the co-main event of the evening, the promotionā€™s featherweight kingpin,Ā Patricio ā€œPitbullā€ Freire, put his title on the line against submission specialistĀ Daniel Weichel. Pitbull stretched his winning streak to six with a fourth-round finish of Daniel Straus in January. Weichel, meanwhile, had won seven straight, including a decision win over former champion Pat Curran in February.
