Smith will be making his Bellator MMA debut against a fighter who is currently in the midst of a four-fight winning streak. "Nữa đêm Magic” is on a bit of a roll of his own, coming into the promotion riding a two-bout winning streak.

Gonzalez took a brief hiatus from MMA to compete in the kickboxing portion of the groundbreaking "Bellator MMA: Dynamite 1 " event in September, losing a tightly contest decision to world-renowned striker Paul "Semtex" Daley.
