4 burning questions heading into Bellator 239

MMA Junkie’s Simon Head picks out four notable storylines to follow through fight night at Bellator 239.

Will the second time be a charm for Myles Jury?

After a 12-fight run in the UFC, [autotag]Myles Jury[/autotag] swapped the octagon for the Bellator cage, but “The Fury” wasn’t able to kick off life in his new promotion with a debut victory.

Jury (18-5 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) was edged out on the scorecards by former UFC and WEC lightweight champion Benson Henderson at Bellator 227 in Dublin in September 2019, and he returns to action in Thackerville looking to pick up a victory at the second time of asking.

Jury will take on [autotag]Brandon Girtz[/autotag], who returned from a one-year layoff to pick up a hard-earned victory over Saad Awad at Bellator 219 in March 2019. Now he’s looking to kick off his 2020 with a notable victory over the former UFC hot prospect.

Will Jury get things right second time around, or can Girtz (16-8 MMA, 8-6 BMMA) claim back-to-back victories and head toward the summer with real momentum?
