САНТА МОНИКА, Калиф. (Април 22, 2016) – The recently announced international tentpole event, "Беллатор 158: Лондон," now features two additional mouth-watering matchups during the event’s main card, са данашњим додатак Мајкл "Веном" Страница (10-0) наспрам Фернандо Гонзалес (25-13) in a welterweight bout at The O2 in London. “MVP” is fresh off a first-round submission during the main card of "Беллатор 153: Корешков против. хендерсон " вечерас and now sets his sights on impressing in his home country.

The two new contests join an event that already features Кимбо Слице (6-2) преузимајући Јамес Тхомпсон (20-16) и Јосх Косцхецк (17-10) против Павле "Семтекс" Дејли (38-13-2).

As was showcased вечерас у "Беллатор 153: Корешков против. Хендерсон," mixed martial arts fans and pundits alike would be hard-pressed to find a striker — or submission specialistas dynamic as Page. Other than his win against Јеремие Холловаи, look no further than his previous outings against Charlie Ontiveros, or his 65-second knockout of Rudy Bears for explosive examples. Али, now “Venom” looks to strike against Gonzalez, who is no stranger to being the underdog when he enters the Bellator MMA fray. A proud son of London, Енглеска, the 29-year-old Page has only reached the judges’ scorecards once in his nine professional outings. “MVP” will enter the cage at The O2 in London with an unblemished record, hometown support and momentum, all on his side.

Гонзалез, a 32-year-old Menifee, Калиф. is looking to build upon his split decision victory over Гилберт Смит у "Беллатор 151: Ворен вс. Цалдвелл” and add to his impressive five-fight winning streak. A veteran of the Scott Coker-founded Strikeforce promotion, as well as World Extreme Cagefighting, Gonzalez has been competing professionally since 2003 and was originally slated to fight “MVP” in March, but the fight fell through when the Englishman withdrew due to injury. Сада, Gonzalez looks to solidify himself as the No. 1 contender to the crown at 170-pounds and prove that he truly is the stiffest test Page has faced in his 10-fight career.

Vassell is fresh off of a victory over Bellator’s Емануел Њутон in a bout that went the distance at the record-shattering event that was"Беллатор 149: Шамрок против. Грејси. " Vassell has now won 11 од његова последња 13 fights and will be chomping at the bit to get back in the cage in front of his hometown fans. Vassell joins Thompson, Daley and Page on a card that features a strong contingent of British talent as the card continues to grow.

Hailing from Paris, Француска, the 34-year-old Carmont will enter the cage for the first time in 2016 and fourth under the Bellator MMA umbrella. In his most recent appearance, at the tournament-style "Беллатор ММА: Динамите 1, " Carmont replaced an injured Мухаммед "Кинг Мо" Лауал, who was forced to drop out after suffering a rib injury earlier in the event. After winning his first bout of the evening, “Limitless” surrendered a loss to Пхил Давис in the final round of the tournament-style contest. Сада, “Limitless” looks to upset the hometown faithful during the main card of "Беллатор 158: London.”

Fresh off his performance in the main event of "Беллатор 149: Шамрок против. Грацие," the record-shattering card that generated 3.5 милион гледалаца, Slice returns to action against the man he previously defeated back in 2008. It’s without question that Slice, a member of American Top Team in his home state of Florida, is one of the most must-see competitors in the sport of mixed martial arts, as it’s become increasingly clear fans can never truly expect what will happen when the brawler enters the Bellator cage.

 

“The Colossus” will likely have a sold-out O2 Arena strongly in his corner, being that he hails from Bristol, England and hasn’t fought on home turf since 2010. Томпсон, 37, has been calling for a rematch with Slice since their infamous meeting nearly eight years ago and would like nothing more than to bounce back from a recent string of bad luck with a win against a name the likes of the former YouTube sensation. Thompson’s resume already features wins against Dan Severn, Don Frye and Бобби Ласхлеи, између осталог.

 

In the card’s co-main event, Koscheck will make his promotional debut a little over a year after signing with Bellator MMA. Its pained the Fresno native to be out of action for so long, especially after being forced to withdraw from a headlining spot in his hometown against Мет Сецор у “Bellator 148,” a card that “Semtex” went on to main event. It was there that the seeds for a rematch were cemented even further, as Daley trashed “Kos” in front of his partisan fans, pushing the 38-year-old to return.

 

While Daley may have the results as of late to upstage his foe, Koscheck owns a victory over the Brit in their first meeting, which Daley followed with an infamous punch after the bell that changed the trajectory of his career. Сада, with nine wins in his last ten fights, Daley returns home to put an end to a moment in his profession that has cast a shadow over most of his success, while Koscheck looks to prove that their first meeting was no fluke.

 

These two momentous matchups are set to take place on Јул 16 at the legendary 20,000-seat O2 Arena, as Kimbo Slice-James Thompson II and Josh Koscheck-Paul Daley II emanate from the United Kingdom, and there’s no other place to watch the action unfold than FREE on Spike.

Few fighters can inspire a nation the way that Rome’s Алессио Сакара (18-11) had his Italian countrymen rooting for him tonight.

Donaldson at "Беллатор 147: Thomson vs. Villaseca," McKee was cut above the eye, the sight of his own blood seemed to cause the 20-year-old to hit the turbo button. Similarly tonight, McKee was on the wrong side of an accidental low blow and after a short resting period, “Mercenary” came out swinging with a torrid pace, ultimately connecting with a left kick to the ribs of Belluardo that sent him falling to the mat. The referee gave him a moment to defend himself but McKee rained down an efficient flurry of ground and pound, earning the TKO at 2:44 of the very first frame. Sending a message to Scott Coker and the врло deep Bellator featherweight division that he means business, McKee said in his post-fight interview: “If you ain’t got the belt, I ain’t got my eye on you.”
