Un finisher nato naturale, Il successo di Shlemenko in MMA si è tradotto anche in coaching, poiché ha svolto un ruolo fondamentale nell'ascesa dell'attuale boss dei pesi welter Bellator MMA Andrey Koreshkov.

Anche da notare, a causa della recente sospensione di Shlemenko, I funzionari di Bellator hanno arruolato i servizi del Dipartimento di regolamentazione atletica di Mohegan per somministrare test antidroga prima e dopo la lotta di Shlemenko contro Grove. L'ex campione dei pesi medi è attualmente autorizzato con la commissione Mohegan.

Fissato per ottenere un altro colpo per il titolo dei pesi medi di Bellator, Grove ha messo insieme due enfatiche vittorie di arresto da quando ha perso la sua offerta per ottenere l'oro"Bellator 137: Halsey vs. Grove.

"The Dominator" cercherà di eseguire la sua attuale serie di vittorie a otto incontri, e cinque finiture di fila. Con la cintura dei pesi massimi recentemente liberata, c'è un argomento che può essere fatto che l'Aurora, Colo., native è il grande uomo da battere nella classe dei pesi massimi di Bellator MMA.

Appelt doveva fare la sua quinta apparizione sotto la direzione di Bellator MMA contro Sergei Kharitonov a "Bellator 154: Davis vs. Re Mo," ma dopo il 35enne russo si è ritirato per malattia, Appelt fu costretto ad aspettare. Ora, "The Juggernaut" tornerà ancora una volta, e di nuovo, il 33enne nativo della California avrà le mani piene. Con dieci interruzioni 12 vittorie, Appelt cercherà di usare la sua straordinaria abilità per annullare il forte pedigree di wrestling di Lashley.

“There’s no denying that Rory MacDonald was the cream of the crop when it comes to free agents in MMA,"Ha detto il presidente Bellator Scott Coker. “As I say all the time, if there is a free agent out there, we’re going to talk to them, if they fit our model we’re going to make a hard push to bring them over here. I’m very happy that we were able to work out a deal with Rory, and I can’t wait to see him bring his menacing style to the Bellator cage.”

MacDonald is clearly the most popular active Canadian mixed martial artist since the former UFC welterweight Champion and teammate Georges St. Pierre, whom MacDonald has trained under for years at the world renowned TriStar Gym in Montreal.

There are multiple reasons why I choose to fight for Bellator MMA and Scott Coker,” Rory MacDonald said. “One, they have given me the opportunity to develop and grow a business together.

At only 27-years-old, MacDonald joins the fray with an impressive professional record of 18-4 and enters a stacked welterweight division of fighters already signed with Bellator, that currently has a world-class champion in Andrey Koreshkov.
