LOUIS -- Heading into the final stretch of the season, the issues for the Chicago Bears banged-up defence only seem to be getting worse. Bellator light heavyweight champion?Liam McGeary?and challenger Phil Davis?couldnt have more opposing mindsets ahead of their title fight on Friday.Laughing and joking around, all those fun and games are over now, said McGeary during a recent?Bellator 163 media call. Ive had three, four months of getting ready for him, and the torture I put myself through in this gym, Im getting ready to take it out on him.Davis (16-3) immediately responded by saying,?The fun and games are not over. The fun and games have just begun. Youve been training for four months for this fight. Ive had over a full year I put into wearing your butt out and dragging your face across the mat.The time for talk will officially end when the two square off in Fridays main event at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut (Spike TV/ESPN Deportes, 9 p.m. ET). But leading up to the fight, Davis has used his silly and squirrelly side to playfully get under the skin of McGeary (11-0), which was apparent on last weeks call.Out of all the guys Ive fought, Im going to like punching him in the face the least, Davis said. Hes actually a pretty funny guy, but business is business and Im going to have to come at this man like a spider monkey.McGeary (11-0), a native of England, began to compare his opponents high-pitched voice to Michael Jackson or one of the Bee Gees, but after a few more belittling remarks, McGeary eventually got serious with his responses.My record is 11-0 for a reason, said McGeary. If I say Im going to knock them out, I knock them out. If I say Im getting a submit, I submit you. Im going to beat your f---ing face in.So, how did we get to this fight? After jumping over from the UFC, Davis made a splash in his Bellator debut in September 2015 by defeating Emanuel Newton and Francis Carmont in the same night at the promotions first Dynamite card. Winning the light heavyweight tournament gave Davis a shot at the champion in the future, whomever it would be. That was decided later that night, when McGeary defended his title by submitting Tito Ortiz with an inverted triangle choke.ddddddddddddBut McGeary has remained out of action since that fight due to a knee injury. The 34-year-old says he had a lot of damage inside the knee that prevented him from standing on it comfortably. After getting some repairs, McGeary has been able to go through a successful training camp in New York.Despite a perfect record and a title in hand, McGeary sits two spots lower than his challenger in the ESPN.com light heavyweight power rankings, and his?knees could potentially be an X factor in the bout. In his previous two title fights, McGeary has allowed takedowns to both Ortiz and Newton. He was able to overcome both takedowns going to his back against those two opponents, but going up against a former 197-pound NCAA national champion in Davis, who competed at Penn State, could be a whole other issue.You havent had a fight for a year and you think you can just jump off the bench, said Davis. The world dont work like that. Listen, Ive been beating people up while Ive been waiting to beat up you. Your picture is on a bag in my gym, and I just beat the picture off the bag for the second time.The person Davis beat in the meantime was Muhammed King Mo Lawal in May. It was a competitive yet unanimous decision in favor of Mr. Wonderful that solidified his status at the top contender at 205 pounds. Unbeaten within the promotion after becoming one of the first high-profile names to make the leap from the UFC, Davis can solidify his status as one of the top 205-pound fighters in the world with a victory, and thats the kind of pressure he claims he thrives under.I like the feeling of knowing that Im in the semis, or that Im in the finals, Davis said. That the pressures on, that moment of do or die, I love that moment. I thrive in that moment, and Im so glad to be back in that moment of do or die, all or nothing. Thats where I shine.
