CODY WALKER STEPS UP ON SHORT NOTICE TO CHALLENGE UNDEFEATED A.J. MCKEE, WHILE GEORGI KARAKHANYAN-BUBBA JENKINS MOVED TO SPIKE-TELEVISED CARD

Σάντα Μόνικα, CALIF (Αύγουστος 16, 2016) – Just nine days before the highly anticipated "Bellator 160: Henderson vs. Pitbull” εκδήλωση για Αύγουστος 26 at Honda Center in Anaheim, Καλιφόρνια., injuries sustained by main card fighters Henry Corrales και Λένα Ovchynnikova have shaken things up a bit. Αήττητη featherweight Α.Ι. McKee (4-0) τώρα θα αντιμετωπίσει Cody Walker (7-2), ενώ Bubba Jenkins (11-2) και Γκεόργκι Karakhanyan (24-6-1) find themselves in a featherweight feature fight during the SPIKE-televised main card.

The fights join a main card that spotlights a super fight at 155-pounds between Benson Henderson (23-6) και Ο Patricio "Pitbull" (25-3), as the two will duke it out for a shot at Michael Chandler’s championship belt. Εξάλλου, an explosive lightweight contest pitting Μπορείτε Αουάντ (19-7) κατά Ντέρεκ Άντερσον (13-2) will serve as the evening’s co-main event.

In preliminary action, welterweights Kevin “Baby Slice” Ferguson Jr. και Τζόι Ντέιβις will make their professional debuts, ενώ Chinzo Machida (3-2) will compete for the first time under the Bellator MMA banner.

Tickets for the event start at $30 and can be purchased now on Ticketmaster and at Honda Center Box Office. Οι πόρτες ανοίγουν στις 4:45 μ.μ. PT local time and the first preliminary bout – which streams live on Bellator.com και Η Bellator Mobile App — αρχίζει από 5:00 μ.μ. PT.

After beginning his career 7-1 ως ερασιτέχνης, the 21-year-old “Mercenary” has made a splash on the professional circuit, recording a perfect 4-0 mark through his first four bouts. McKee has fought under the Bellator MMA banner ever since he made his professional debut in 2015, finishing all of his contests in the opening frame, including three knockouts and a rear-naked choke submission. McKee’s most recent victory came at the expense of Italian Danilo Belluardo during the mixed martial arts portion of Bellator MMA’s first-ever event overseas, "Bellator 152: Freire vs. Souza.” The Long Beach, Καλιφόρνια. native will now take his flashy personality to the Honda Center, where he will have the chance to put his unique skill set on full display in front of his hometown fans.

Agreeing to take a professional mixed martial arts contest on short notice is no easy task, doing so against an undefeated fighter the caliber of McKee is even more daunting. But that’s exactly the scenario Walker finds himself in now ahead of next Friday’s συμβάν. A two-time competitor for Bellator, “The Crow” will look to move above .500 within the promotion when he enters the cage at Honda Center. The 28-year-old Texan has ended all seven of his professional victories via TKO or KO, including four in the first round.

A longtime veteran of Bellator MMA, Karakhanyan will look to get back on track after dropping two closely contested decision losses against Jenkins, who he handily defeated nearly two years ago via guillotine submission. Known to many mixed martial arts fans as “Insane,” the 31-year-old has finished 18 από του 24 κερδίζει ως επαγγελματίας, earning himself multiple titles in regional promotions along the way. Following multiple setbacks to his knee, the Russian fighter is finally healthy and now looks to climb the 145-pound ladder in a competitive division that he once sat atop as the No. 1 αντίπαλος.

Just a few years ago, Bubba Jenkins was widely regarded as the top MMA prospect in all of the sport, though the title became tainted following the aforementioned loss to Karakhanyan at “Bellator 132.” The former NCAA National Champion wrestler with Arizona State University now has three consecutive wins under his belt, and is looking for redemption. Heading into his 11th fight under the Scot Coker-led promotion, the 28-year-old “Highlight Kid” looks to put on a standout performance in Bellator’s incredibly deep featherweight division. Tune in Αύγουστος 26 to see if the Corona, Καλιφόρνια., native can return the favor and finish Karakhanyan in front of his local supporters.

All-Action Fan Favorite Boasts Historic Punch Stats Heading into Matchup At

Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn

BROOKLYN (Αύγουστος 16, 2016) – Undefeated featherweight contender Ερείκη “Η θερμότητα” Σκληραγωγημένος is ready to take center stage and she has garnered the praise of the sport’s top fighters as she prepares to take on longtime rival Κελυφώδης “Shelito Τρόπο” Vincent σε Premier Πυγμαχία Τσάμπιονς επί NBCSN δράση Κυριακή, Αύγουστος 21 from Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk in Brooklyn.

PBC on NBCSN coverage begins at 9 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/6 μ.μ. PT and features exciting contender Claudio “The Matrix” Marrero παίρνοντας αήττητο Derrick Murray. PBC on NBC is headlined by undefeated rising star Errol “Η Αλήθεια” Spence Jr. facing once-beaten contender Leonard “το ΛΙΟΝΤΑΡΙ” Bundu in a welterweight world title eliminator that begins at 5 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ/2 μ.μ. PT.

Always in entertaining battles, Hardy’s punches per round stats far exceed the average for her weight class and prove why everyone believes her matchup with Vincent will be all-action. In six CompuBox-tracked fights, Hardy has averaged 83.4 punches per two-minute round, which projects to a staggering 111.2 if fought over three minutes. This number would far exceed the two men’s leaders Ρομάν Γκονζάλες και Λέων Σάντα Κρουζ. Her two-minute output of 83.4 punches per round would rank her fourth among the men over three minutes, ahead of hard-hitters Gennady Golovkin (68.6), Andrzej Fonfara (75.1), Ορλάντο Salido (71) και Abner Mares (69.4) amongst others in the top ten.

“I think that if there is a female boxer out there that should and deserves to be seen, it’s Heather Hardy,” said former world champion Shawn Porter. “She has put tons of work in. I have seen her fight and train and she is a top competitor and a true athlete in this sport. Some people think it’s taking a chance to put women’s boxing on television, but I think Heather Hardy is the best person to take that chance on. I don’t know anyone that is more worthy of this shot.”

“Heather Hardy is always in fan friendly and entertaining fights,” said former world champion Paulie Malignaggi. “Off the top of my head, I cannot think of a dull Heather Hardy fight. Περισσότερο, she brings a big following and that always makes for a fun, noisy crowd and atmosphere.”

A fan-favorite in Brooklyn, Hardy has been helping to fill local venues for years including Barclays Center, where she has fought seven times as a pro. Τώρα, her long awaited matchup with the unbeaten New Englander Vincent has given her the opportunity to show her talents on a bigger stage.

“I couldn’t be happier for my fellow Brooklynite Heather Hardy,” said middleweight world champion Ντάνιελ Jacobs. “This is a tremendous opportunity to showcase her talents on TV, and one that she has rightfully earned. This is huge, not only for her, bur for women’s boxing in general.”

“I think it’s a great for Heather to get this opportunity,” είπε Spence Jr. “It’s not common that we see women’s boxing on television but there are a lot of women who deserve it. This is great for them and it’s great for the sport.”

“Heather has been working incredibly hard and grinding for years,” said former world champion Κρις Algieri. “It’s great to see her get the exposure she deserves after the time and commitment she has put in to get to this point. She’s one of the most consistent performers in the local area and it’s time for the rest of the world to see her hard work and skills.”

Alfredo Angulo

“I’ve been training hard since the beginning of the year. I’m ready to get back in the ring and put on a show for the fans.

“I love entertaining the fans. I want to keep going out there and fighting for the fans. I want to be in big fights that fans remember.

“I know that this will be a very entertaining fight. My opponent and I both have a lot of pride. We fight like true Mexican warriors and will leave it all in the ring. I don’t expect this to go the decision but I am ready to battle for every round.

“Fans don’t question fights between two Mexican fighters. Everyone loves those kinds of matchups, like Morales-Barrera. Those fights are must watch. The Mexican style is to go head-to-head and toe-to-toe.

“Fighting a guy like this is always dangerous. I don’t like to beat up my countrymen but this is a business and I want to have the crowd chant my name, just like he does.

“I feel better when I have rest in between fights. Νιώθω πιο δυνατή. The rest has helped my body and I’m going to be stronger and sharper when I get back in the ring.

“I’m very comfortable with my style and my team. I’ve known Romulo Quirarte for many many years and we’ve worked very well together.

“I got married and we have a child on the way so I have a lot of emotions that I put into this training camp. It’s hard for me to explain in words, but I hope that I can show everyone when I get into the ring on Αύγουστος 27.”

TERRELL Gausha

“Each fight I feel like I’ve been growing. I’ve been learning and taking something from every experience in the ring. I’m a student of the game. I’m always training and I feel like I’m getting sharper and better.

“I know my opponent is an aggressive fighter. He’ll come forward and he comes to win. I know him from the amateurs where he has a great background like myself. I’m looking to pick him apart and prove myself.

“It’s hard for me to describe my style, but I make adjustments to opponents. I fight differently depending on my opponent. I’m a thinking fighter. He’s an aggressive fighter and I think it will bring the best out of me. I’m going to exploit his weaknesses and use his aggression against him.

“I just have to be myself. Angulo and Robert Guerrero have a lot of heart, just like I do. My style is my own. I’m smart and I’m sharp. I like to hit and not get hit.

“I’ve been watching the Olympics games and catching as much boxing as I can. We already have a medal guaranteed. I love watching all of the Olympics sports.”
