Clear your calendars, ladies and gents. There's a full schedule of mixed martial arts on deck for the month of April.
Between single fight cards from Bellator, Invicta FC, ONE FC, World Series of Fighting and four cards from the biggest show in town, there's little reason you shouldn't spend every waking minute catching up on the latest happenings from inside the cage, no matter the shape.
Most of the April showdowns get underway this Saturday in Fairfax, Virginia, as Dana White and Co. bring Chad Mendes and Ricardo Lamas to the Patriot Center. Six days later, Scott Coker and the boys from Bellator bring their rising lightweight champ to please the crowd at the Bren Events Center in Irvine, California. The list goes on and on from here.
But fine, let's assume you don't have the luxury of dedicating a seemingly endless amount of time to your television set. Let's assume, for whatever reason, you can only pick five of the 60-plus bouts to watch. Scroll on through the slides to see which are poised to bring you the biggest bang for your buck.
