MIDDLEWEIGHT BOUT PITTING JOHN SALTER AGAINST CLAUDIO ANNICCHIARICO ADDED TO MAIN CARD OF BELLATOR MMA’S RETURN TO ITALY

סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף (נאָוועמבער 1, 2016) – A light heavyweight bout pitting פיליפּע לינס (10-1) קעגן Pietro Cappelli (2-1) and a middleweight fight between יוחנן סאָלטער (12-3) און Claudio Annicchiarico (1-4) have been added to "בעללאַטאָר 168: קאַרוואַלהאָ ווס. Manhoef 2,” which will feature both Bellator MMA and Bellator Kickboxing brands emanating from the Mandela Forum in Florence on Dec. 10.

The evening is highlighted by a main event middleweight world title rematch pitting ראַפאַעל קאַרוואַלהאָ (13-1) קעגן מעלווין מאַנהאָעף (30-13-1, 2 נק). דערצו, Italy’s own אַלעססיאָ סאַקאַראַ (18-11, 2 נק) און Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 נק) will duke it out in a light heavyweight feature fight. "בעללאַטאָר 168: קאַרוואַלהאָ ווס. Manhoef 2” will air on SPIKE at 4pm עט/פּט.

A native of Florence, איטאליע, Cappelli has made an immediate splash in MMA, earning consecutive victories following his professional debut in 2015. Cappelli’s first career win came at the expense of Andrzej Kulik, when the 32-year-old delivered a brutal first round knockout. He then parlayed the emphatic victory with another first round finish, displaying his noteworthy ground game with a keylock submission just one minute and one second into the bout. With a noticeable message reading “unscarred” across his stomach, the Italian competitor prepares to dive in head first with a challenging matchup against the veteran Lins in his Bellator MMA debut.

The 31-year-old Lins will enter the cage for the 12th time in his career and fifth since making his Bellator MMA debut in 2014. האַילינג פון בראזיל, Lins began his professional career on a nine-fight winning streak, finishing opponents in seven of the victories. “Monstro” has recorded a trio of significant victories since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion, including two first round finishes and his most recent knockout win over fellow Brazilian competitor וויליאם וויאַנאַ בייַ "בעללאַטאָר 159: Caldwell vs. Taimanglo.” Lins hopes to build off of his big win and silence a crowd that will be heavily in favor of his Italian opponent Cappelli.

Fresh off of his first career victory, a first round knockout over Ilyrian Hoxhay, the 32-year-old Annicchiarico looks to continue his success when he enters the cage for the first time under the direction of Bellator MMA. The Italian middleweight will face a difficult first test in Salter, a 15-fight veteran that hasn’t been defeated since 2012. With a pair of submission defeats to Salter’s name, look for Annicchiarico to take the fight to the ground and grind it out there.

The former Strikeforce competitor Salter will make his third appearance under the Bellator MMA banner, after recording victories in his first two bouts with the promotion. He is riding a recent string of success, having won four consecutive contests and seven of his past eight. Over his seven-year career, the 31-year-old Nashville, Tenn., native has collected a dozen professional victories, recording finishes in all. With nine of his 12 career wins coming in the opening round of action, Salter is known to be one of the quickest strikers in the division and most recently finished former middleweight champion Brandon Halsey.

JOHN TEIXEIRA GETS NEW OPPONENT JUSTIN LAWRENCE WHILE TOP WRESTLING PROSPECT JAROD TRICE MAKES HIS DEBUT AGAINST BRANDON LEE ON STACKED PRELIMINARY CARD

סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף. (נאָוועמבער 1, 2016) – An undisclosed injury to פּאַט קורראַן, who was originally scheduled to fight יוחנן טעיקסעיראַ(20-1-2), has opened the door for a lightweight main event pitting פּאַטריקקי פּיטבולל (16-8) קעגן דערעק פיעלדס (17-6) on the second night of a special doubleheader inside WinStar World Casino & רעסאָרט אין טהאַקקערוויללע, קעשורע., אויף שבת, דעצעמבער 3.

 

In lieu of the injured former featherweight champion, Teixeira will now face דזשאַסטין לאָראַנס (9-3) in main card action. דערצו, Bellator MMA is pleased to announce the professional debut of three-time All American wrestling prospect Jarod Trice, who will challenge Brandon Lee (4-1) during the Bellator.com-streamed preliminary card.

The second night of entertainment – “Bellator 167” – features a flyweight bout pitting undefeated budding superstar Ilima-Lei MacFarlane (4-0) קעגן Emily Ducote (4-1), ווי געזונט ווי טשידי נדזשאָקואַני (15-4, 1 נק) קעגן Andre Fialho (7-0) in three rounds of welterweight action on the Spike-televised main card.

 

A bantamweight world title rematch pitting current champion Eduardo דאַנטאַס (18-4) קעגן דזשאָו וואָראַן (14-5) and a featherweight bout pitting undefeated prospect אַ.דזש. מאַקי (5-0) קעגן עממאַנועל סאַנטשעז (13-3) will highlight the first night of excitement at “Bellator 166.”Lastly, אַ באַנטאַמוועיגהט באַוט צווישן Marcos גאַלוואַאָ (17-7-1) און ק.ר.. דייוויס (23-7) will also be featured on the main card of the doubleheader’s opening night.

 

Tickets for the unique doubleheader event start at just $45 and can be purchased at the WinStar World Casino & Resort Box Office, as well as Ticketmaster and Bellator.com.

 

"בעללאַטאָר 167: פּיטבולל ווס. Campos 2” airs live and free on Saturday on SPIKE at 9 פּ.ם. און/8 פּ.ם. CT., ווייַלע "בעללאַטאָר 166: Dantas vs. Warren 2”airs live and free אויף פרייטאג on SPIKE at 9 פּ.ם. און/8 פּ.ם. קאָרט. Preliminary bouts for both events will stream live on Bellator.com און די בעללאַטאָר מאָביל אַפּ.

 

The 30-year-old Brazilian star originally caught the promotion’s attention following an electric start to his professional career, as he earned a victory in seven of his first eight fights. Now a 16-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Freire enters the contest having won six of his last nine bouts, including knockout finishes over division powerhouses ריאַן קאָוטורע, דוד ריקקעלס, and most notably Derek Campos in the pair’s first brawl two years ago. The second round victory over Campos marked only the second time in his career that an opponent was able to finish him via knockout. Freire has already put together a stellar 2016 קאַמפּיין, with wins over Couture and Kevin Souza, as well as a lightweight title shot against מיכאל טשאַנדלער. “Pitbull” will look to further cement his feet atop the division’s elite with a strong performance against the equally-tested veteran Campos.

 

Prior to an undisclosed injury, Campos was originally set for a rematch with “Pitbull” in Italy at “Bellator 152,” but now the 28-year-old Texan will have his shot at revenge even closer to home base. Hailing from Lubbock, טעקסאַס, “The Stallion” comes in having won eight of his last 11 ענדס, including knockout victories over Melvin Guillard and Estevan Payan. With a professional record of 3-1 אין טהאַקקערוויללע, including a KOTC Junior Welterweight Championship in 2012, Campos has clearly claimed WinStar World Casino & Resort his home away from home. Currently riding a recent string of success, Campos will look to add to his current two-fight winning streak and continue his dominance in OK.

 

The 29-year-old Teixeira continues to make a name for himself in Bellator MMA’s featherweight division, as he will make his fourth appearance under the promotion’s direction following three consecutive victories. Similar to his opponent, Teixeira also steps into the cage on a recent string of success, having won seven of his last eight bouts, including a trio of first round knockouts. Prior to his days with Bellator MMA, Teixeira began his professional career fighting exclusively in Brazil, posting an undefeated record of 12-0 with one draw. The upcoming bout marks only the fourth time in Teixeira’s nine year career that he will fight outside of his native Brazil. מיט 14 פון זיין 19 קאַריערע ווינס קומענדיק דורך וועג פון נאַקאַוט אָדער סאַבמישאַן, you can be sure to see “Macapa” go for the finishing blow early and often in this mouthwatering matchup.

 

Following the recent news of an undisclosed injury that forced Pat Curran to withdraw, Lawrence has agreed to fill in to face Teixeira. After beginning his professional career under the direction of Strikeforce, Lawrence has found a home in Bellator MMA’s formidable featherweight division. “The American Kid” has tallied a pair of highlight-reel knockouts since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion last year, including his most recent victory over יסאַאָ קאָבייַאַשי בייַ "בעללאַטאָר 157: Dynamite 2.” The emphatic finish was the fifth of his young career and fourth by way of knockout. Dating back to 2013, the 26-year-old striker has won five of his last six contests, three of which came by way of knockout. Hailing from Pacific, מאַזעראַ, the former UFC competitor will look to keep the ball rolling against another tough opponent in Teixeira.

 

Three-time All American wrestling prospect Jarod Trice will be making his highly anticipated professional debut, following his recent signing with the promotion earlier this year. Trice joins אהרן פּיקאָ, און רות און Tyrell Fortune as a few of the recent signees that make up the new wave of incredibly talented wrestling prospects to flock to Bellator MMA. The Detroit, Michigan native competed at Central Michigan University, where he has also earned a National Title at 120 kg and two Greco Roman National Titles, with one at 120 kg and another at 98 kg.The 27-year-old also saw a great deal of success following an impressive 50-pound weight-loss transformation, something that will surely come in handy in a sport that demands severe weight discipline.

 

Fighting out of Clinton, קעשורע., Lee will not have to travel far when he makes his Bellator MMA debut inside WinStar World Casino & רעסאָרט אין טהאַקקערוויללע, אויף דעצעמבער 3. The 41-year-old heavyweight has had a great deal of success to date, recording four wins over his five career bouts under the direction of regional promotions. “The Undertaker” has finished his opponent in the opening round of each of his four professional victories, including a brutal knockout in his most recent win earlier this year. Lee will drop down to the 205-pound division for his promotional debut, looking to crash the party that is top prospect Jarod Trice and his widely followed professional debut.

CHRIS HONEYCUTT-BEN REITER MIDDLEWEIGHT BOUT PUTS STAMP ON STACKED MAIN CARD

The first night of entertainment – "בעללאַטאָר 166: Dantas vs. Warren 2” — will feature a bantamweight world title rematch between current champion Eduardo דאַנטאַס (18-4) and former belt holder דזשאָו וואָראַן (14-5). דערצו, a featherweight clash pitting undefeated prospect אַ.דזש. מאַקי (5-0) קעגן עממאַנועל סאַנטשעז (13-3) will also air live and free on the SPIKE-televised card.

Preliminary bouts for both events will stream live on Bellator.com און די בעללאַטאָר מאָביל אַפּ. Additional bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.

Brazilian superstar Marcos Galvao returns to action having won seven of his last nine and is ready for another push at the division’s belt. Hailing from Amazonas, Brazil, the illusive “Loro” has only been finished once in the past seven years, while conversely finishing his opponent in five of his 11 wins over that same period. Now Galvao returns to WinStar World Casino & רעסאָרט, the same venue where he fought and defeated Joe Warren for bantamweight gold at “Bellator 135.” Subsequently, Warren will also prepare to compete at "בעללאַטאָר 166: Dantas vs. Warren 2,” as he and Eduardo Dantas will face off in the main event. Needless to say, the 34-year-old Galvao will have tremendous motivation to win, as the division he once championed dominates a stacked main card in Thackerville.

Davis enters the contest for the fifth time under the Bellator MMA banner, earning victories in three of his first four bouts with the promotion. The 35-year-old bantamweight has finished his opponent in 15 פון זיין 23 career wins, אַרייַנגערעכנט 11 אין די עפן קייַלעכיק. A winner in seven of his last nine contests, the Kansas City, Missouri native consistently finds himself amid conversation with the division’s top contenders. Davis hopes to replicate the same success that he had in his most recent victory over Hideo Tokoro at "בעללאַטאָר 135," where his split decision win was labeled Yahoo! Sports’ “Best Fight of the Half-Year.” The former Pratt Community College wrestling coach now faces an opportunity to climb the ranks in a tasty matchup against one of the game’s best.

A six-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Honeycutt made a lasting impression in his first two appearances under the promotion, recording back-to-back knockouts. Fighting out of Fresno, קאַליף., the 28-year-old knockout artist began his professional career with an impressive streak of six consecutive victories, including five finishes and four knockouts. “The Cutt” made a successful transition to the welterweight division in his Bellator MMA debut in 2014, before returning to the middleweight class in his most recent win over Mikkel Parlo בייַ “Bellator 156.”

After making his professional debut in 2011, Reiter collected sixteen wins before surrendering his first career loss. The 29-year-old New Yorker competed mainly in Peru early in his career, fighting under the direction of Inka Fighting Championship, before joining the Bellator MMA fray in 2014. Since making his promotional debut for the Scott Coker-led organization, “The Hunter” has added three more victories to his already impressive résumé, as he quickly finds himself among the division’s elite. With nine of his 17 קאַריערע ווינס קומענדיק דורך וועג פון נאַקאַוט אָדער סאַבמישאַן, Reiter hopes to add to that total with another finish in the first of a two-night special doubleheader in Thackerville, גוט. Standing at six feet three inches, Reiter will look to expose his opponent Honeycutt with a significant advantage in both height and reach.

סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף. — (אָקטאָבער 26, 2016) - בעללאַטאָר ממאַ איז שטאָלץ צו מעלדן די סיינינג פון Ralek Gracie (3-0) to an exclusive multi-fight, multi-year contract.

Ralek is the third son of Rorion, the nephew of Royce, Rickson, and Royler Gracie and received his black belt from Grand Master Helio Gracie. The Gracie Family is famous for putting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu on the map around the globe.

אין בלויז 22, Ralek made his MMA debut in Japan, where he defeated his opponent, Kastuyori Shibata with a devastating armbar. Nearly a year later, Ralek returned to Japan for his second MMA fight and again was victorious, this time defeating Gahdzhiev Alavutdin with an armbar from the mount. These two bouts led to a highly anticipated matchup with Kazushi Sakuraba, where again the Los Angeles native left “The Land of the Rising Sun” with the victory. That was the last time Ralek would fight under MMA rules, until now.

“I was bred for hand-to-hand combat over generations and I simply can’t ignore that during my physical prime. My destiny is calling me and my opponent is irrelevant, עס ס גיין צייַט,” Gracie said. “It’s crazy to see where fighting has come since my childhood of seeing everything unfold from behind the scenes. Bellator is really stepping up the opportunities fighters have to compete more often and in different countries and I’m excited to join that movement and test my style in this modern MMA era.”

It has yet to be determined which weight class the 31-year-old will participate in, but expect to see him lace up the gloves for Bellator MMA in early 2017.

סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף. (אקטאבער. 25, 2016) - Hey America! As we near the 2016 Presidential Election, Bellator MMA is headed to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn on פרייַטיק, נאָוועמבער 4 with one of the most intriguing cards of the year. Headlining the event, Phil “Mr. Wonderful” Davis is on the campaign trail as he prepares for one of the biggest fights of his career vs current Light Heavyweight Champion, ליאַם מקגעאַרי.

 

In advance of the card’s main event, Bellator’s digital team collaborated with Davis and stand-up comedian, Adam Hunter, to produce a collection of six original digital campaign videos with a clear message that there is a better choice! Complementing the digital shorts, fans can actually vote for Davis at the touch of a button at www.VoteForPhilDavis.com up until fight night on נאָוועמבער 4. In the meantime, watch these “wonderful” clips below and see why Davis’ stance outside the cage will make MMA great again!

 

One of the more outspoken athletes in MMA, Davis comes in having won three consecutive contests and seven of his last nine. דערצו, the 31-year-old has finished his opponent in half of his 16 career wins, including five submission victories. Davis earned his shot at McGeary and the highly coveted 205-pound belt with a key win over “King Mo” בייַ "בעללאַטאָר 154: דייוויס ווס. King Mo” פריער דעם יאָר. A 13-fight veteran of the UFC, Davis will likely not be fazed by the bright lights of the Mohegan Sun Arena, in what is possibly the biggest challenge of his illustrious career. Look for the former NCAA National Champion wrestler to take this contest to the canvas and display his impeccable ground game in front of a packed Connecticut crowd.

Alexander Shlemenko returns with a patented livershot TKO over Kendall Grove

 

Memphis (אקטאבער. 21, 2016) – The most decorated middleweight in Bellator history, אלכסנדר שלעמענקאָ (54-9, 1נק) returned to the cageהייַנט בייַ נאַכט in a big way against קענדאַלל גראָווע (23-16). The first round saw aggressive back and forth action with each fighter getting rocked. Shlemenko successfully utilized powerful spinning backfists and heelkicks to close the distance on the 6’6 Hawaiian. “The Storm” stalked Grove throughout the cage before ultimately connecting with a nasty combo that saw a left hand to the liver, followed by a right hand to the chin, sending his towering opponent to the mat. Shlemenko followed up with a barrage of strikes to “Da Spyda” before “Big John” McCarthy waved the fight off at 1:43 פון די רגע ראַם.

 

 

Lashley sinks in a rear-naked choke to end Appelt’s night in round two

 

באַבי לאַשלי (15-2) continued to live up to his nickname of “The Dominator” as he tossed his opponent, Josh Appelt (12-6) to the mat at will. Throughout the first round, Lashley jockeyed for position as he rained down punches while trying to lock in a submission in front of his friend from his days as a WWE Superstar, Jerry “The King” Lawler, who watched from his cage side seat. Appelt landed a couple strikes to start the second frame before being slammed to the mat and ultimately submitted with a one-armed rear-naked choke at 1:43 of Round 2.

CHIDI NJOKUANI-ANDRE FIALHO ALSO ADDED TO MAIN CARD OF ‘BELLATOR 167’ ON דעצעמבער 3

סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף. (אָקטאָבער 21, 2016) – A flyweight clash pitting Ilima-Lei MacFarlane (4-0) קעגן Emily Ducote (4-1) and a welterweight bout pitting טשידי נדזשאָקואַני (15-4, 1 נק) קעגן Andre Fialho (7-0) האָבן שוין צוגעלייגט צו די הויפּט קאָרט פון "בעללאַטאָר 167: קורראַן ווס. טעיקסעיראַ," which will take place inside WinStar World Casino & רעסאָרט אין טהאַקקערוויללע, קעשורע., אויף שבת, דעצעמבער 3.

"בעללאַטאָר 167: קורראַן ווס. Teixeira” airs live and free אויף שבת on SPIKE at 9 פּ.ם. און/8 פּ.ם. CT., ווייַלע "בעללאַטאָר 166: Dantas vs. Warren 2” also airs live and free on Friday on SPIKE at 9 פּ.ם. און/8 פּ.ם. קאָרט. Preliminary bouts for both events will stream live on Bellator.com און די בעללאַטאָר מאָביל אַפּ. Additional bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.

Possibly no name is growing faster in the MMA community than Ilima-Lei MacFarlane’s, as the 26-year-old flyweight has rapidly climbed the ranks with four consecutive victories and three finishes. The undefeated submission specialist has emerged victorious in her first three bouts under the Scott Coker-led promotion, and finishing both Amber Tackett and Rebecca Ruth דורך סאַבמישאַן. Hailing from Honolulu, האַוואַיי, “The Ilimanator” has secured one career knockout victory, which came just 10 seconds into her first professional bout and spread virally around the internet. MacFarlane will now direct her attention to another one of Bellator MMA’s top young female competitors, Emily Ducote.

The 23-year-old Ducote will look to add to an already impressive 2016 קאַמפּיין, having earned victories in each of her four fights this year. Ducote’s most recent pair of wins have come under the Bellator MMA umbrella, recording back-to-back second round submission finishes over Brazilian flyweights Bruna Vargas און Kenya Miranda. Ducote will now look to add to her current four-fight winning streak, as she prepares for what is undoubtedly the toughest opponent of her young career. A native of Oklahoma City, “Gordinha” returns home to fight in her back yard, where she anticipates a sold out WinStar World Casino & Resort chock full of close friends and family.

Njokuani made his presence felt early in his career, recording finishes in each of his first seven career victories, including six knockouts and six first round finishes. “Chidi Bang Bang” continued to see success with his knockout power, ווי 10 פון זיין 15 career wins came by way of knockout or submission. You’d be hard pressed to find a more consistent fighter than Njokuani right now, the 27-year-old Las Vegas native enters the cage in search of his seventh consecutive victory and 11 פון זיין לעצטע 12, dating back to 2012. Njokuani has won both of his first two bouts under the direction of Bellator MMA since joining the promotion in 2015, with key victories over the likes of ריקי ראַיניי and Thiago Jambo Goncalves. He hopes to add to that list when he joins his opponent Andre Fialho on דעצעמבער 3.

With an unblemished mark of 7-0, Fialho joins his opponent Njokuani as one of the most feared knockout artists in the game. The 22-year-old welterweight has finished each of his seven opponents and tacked on six knockouts. Possibly even more impressive is the manner in which the young Portuguese prospect has defeated his opponents, with six of the seven victories coming in the first round and three in the first minute of action. Since joining the Bellator MMA fray earlier this year, Fialho has recorded first round knockout wins over Manuel Meraz and Rick Reger, proving early in his career that he belongs with the top dogs. We can be sure to see some fireworks fly when Fialho enters the cage inside WinStar World Casino & Resort in Thackerville this December.

דערצו, a lightweight bout pitting Carrington Banks (5-0) קעגן Jake Roberts (7-0) has been added to the Bellator.com-streamed preliminary card.

 

The bouts join action-packed fights highlighted by a lightweight world title main event featuring מיכאל טשאַנדלער (15-3) קעגן בענסאָן הענדערסאָן (24-6). דערצו, a welterweight clash between undefeated British striker מיכאל "ווענאָם" Page (11-0) and California’s own פערנאַנדאָ גאָנזאַלעז (25-13) will also be the card’s co-main event. Rounding out the televised action, a lightweight showdown pitting אד"ם פּיקקאָלאָט (8-0) קעגן בראַנדאָן גירטז (14-4) and a light heavyweight matchup pitting Linton “The Swarm” Vassell (16-5) קעגן פראַנסיס קאַרמאָנט (14-4) were added earlier this week.

The queen of the infamous Skrap Pack in Northern California, Melendez made her first appearance in a victory during the kickboxing portion of "בעללאַטאָר: דיינאַמייט 1, " and followed up with another win at “Dynamite 2.” Melendez tallied a 4-1 amateur mark before taking her talents to the professional circuit, ווו זי איצט האלט אַ 4-1 קיקקבאָקסינג רעקאָרד. The 32-year-old flyweight will now make the transition to MMA, an iteration of combat sports that her husband, Gilbert Melendez has plenty of success in. Living up to her promise of making her debut in 2016, Melendez will compete on the main card of "בעללאַטאָר 165: טשאַנדלער ווס. הענדערסאָן " אין די זאַפט צענטער אין סאַן דזשאָסע, קאַליף. אויף נאוועמבער. 19.

Fighting out of Visalia, קאַליף., Padilla will enter the Bellator MMA fray following two successful wins on the regional scene, both coming in 2016. Training under Bellator MMA veteran Doug Marshall at Team Elite, this will be Padilla’s opportunity to truly make a name for herself against Melendez, when she competes LIVE on SPIKE.

 

Just like his opponent, Banks enters the cage undefeated and ready to make another splash in his second fight since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion. The Peoria, Illinois native has finished two of his five victims and dominated all three of his decision victories, earning each by unanimous variety. “Jetsetter” will look to use Roberts as his runway for success as the Blackzilian product hopes to couple his Bellator MMA debut triumph with yet another feat and continue his climb up the lightweight ranks. After competing professionally in Kansas, טעקסאַס, and Iowa, the trip to Connecticut will mark Banks’ first on the East Coast.

Having won all five amateur bouts and each of his first four professional fights by way of first round submission, it is Roberts’ ground game that keeps his opponents up at night. אָבער, Roberts’ 2016 campaign has been all about power, after recording back-to-back knockout finishes, highlighted by an emphatic first round knockout in his Bellator MMA debut at "בעללאַטאָר 160: הענדערסאָן ווס. Pitbull.” Roberts hopes to haunt Banks’ dreams when the two clash in the bright lights of SAP Center in San Jose, קאַליף.

The event will be broadcast live and free on SPIKE at 9 פּ.ם. און/8 פּ.ם. קאָרט, while preliminary action will stream on Bellator.com and the Bellator Mobile App. Additional main and preliminary card bouts will be announcing in the coming weeks.

 

Since shocking the world with his surprise signing with Bellator MMA last month, Sonnen has made it clear he wants to fight anyone and everyone – regardless of weight class, or anything else that could stand in his way. Sitting atop that list, is a name that has sat atop the sport of MMA practically since its inception, טיטאָ אָרטיז.

 

Not one to shy away from any sort of challenge, “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” wasted zero time welcoming “The American Gangster” to the fray as only he can, דורך responding to Sonnen’s call-out with open arms on his social media account.

 

Sonnen spent a vast majority of his 43-fight career with the UFC, a run where he competed against names the likes of Jon Jones, אַנדערסאָן סילוואַ (2רענטגענ), Rashad Evans, “Shogun” Rua, Demian Maia, Brian Stann, and current middleweight champion Michael Bisping. In addition to his exploits inside the cage, the West Linn, שעה., native has mastered the art of being in front of the camera, doing major broadcasting work for both ESPN and Fox Sports. איצט, after a three-year hiatus from active MMA competition, Sonnen looks to add to his impressive resume by defeating Ortiz.

 

Known to the masses as “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” or “The People’s Champion” טיטאָ אָרטיז is a fan-favorite all over the world. The former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion has always been one of the toughest competitors in the cage, utilizing his wrestling background; Ortiz is a grinder who defended his title an impressive five times. Always with a flair for the dramatic, אָרטיז האט טיף ריוואַלריעס אין די שטייַג מיט גייז ווי קען Shamrock, Chuck Liddell, וואַנדערלעי סילוואַ, and Randy Couture. רובֿ לעצטנס, Ortiz challenged current Bellator MMA 205-pound champion ליאַם מקגעאַרי בייַ "בעללאַטאָר: דיינאַמייט 1.
