ТАКОЂЕ, SBG’S SINEAD ‘KO’ KAVANAGH AND KEVIN ‘BABY SLICE’ FERGUSON JR. BOTH SET TO COMPETE ON THE CARD

JEREMIAH LABIANO NOW TAKES ON ISRAEL’S NOAD LAHAT IN BELLATOR’S RETURN TO TEL AVIV AT Беллатор 188

ЛОС АНГЕЛЕС – Bellator MMA is set for its return to Dublin, Ирска, as undefeated sensation А.Ј. МцКее (9-0) will look to play the role of spoiler against Бриан Мооре (10-5), a teammate of James Gallagher at Dublin’s SBG, in the featherweight main event of Беллатор 187: McKee vs. Мур at 3Arena on Нов. 10.

 

In addition to the new main event, Ирска је Синеад Каванагх (4-2) ће се борити Maria Casanova (2-4-1) in a women’s featherweight main card bout, док Kevin “Baby Slice” Ferguson Jr. (1-1) will compete against Fred Freeman (1-0) у 165 pound-catchweight contest.

 

Јамес Галлагхер was initially slated to headline against Јеремија Монаган, but was forced to withdraw from the card after suffering an injury during training, leaving room for his divisional rival to headline an event in hostile territory. Moore’s previously scheduled opponent, Andre Goncalves (3-1), will now face Northern Ireland’s Decky Dalton (7-3) у Беллатор 187 featherweight matchup.

 

Беллатор 187: McKee vs. Мур will be broadcast free on SPIKE at 9 п.м. И/ 8 п.м. ЦТ. Tickets for the event are on sale now and currently available at Ticketmaster.ie.

 

Labiano will now move to Беллатор 188: Питбулл вс. Weichel 2 one week later in Tel Aviv, where he is set to take on Israel-born Noad Lahat (11-3) in a main card featherweight bout. Беллатор 188 takes place inside Menora Mivtachim Arena and airs on SPIKE at 9 п.м. И/ 8 п.м. ЦТ о Нов. 17.

 

The son of respected MMA veteran Antonio McKee, А.Ј. МцКее spent his entire childhood in the gym soaking up every bit of knowledge and experience available to him. The 22-year-old prodigy has applied that knowledge inside the Bellator cage and has made quite a statement in his first nine fights as an MMA professional, racking up seven finishes in nine outings. The Long Beach, Calif.-native now heads to Ireland, a country that is all too familiar with “Mercenary” due to his feud with Gallagher.

 

Known around “The Emerald Isle” as “Pikeman,” Brian Moore will be making his third appearance in the Bellator cage and his first main event. Having previously competed against top-rated competition the likes of Данијел Веицхел and Mike Wilkinson, the 30-year-old SBG Ireland standout most recently stopped Michal Horejsi via punches at Беллатор 177 this past April. Moore grew up 90 minutes from 3Arena and will undoubtedly have home field advantage against McKee on Нов. 10.

 

Fresh off his first-round TKO finish of D.J. Griffin, у Беллатор 179 у Лондону, the son of the legendary Kimbo Slice will return to Europe in search of his second victory as professional. Also training under the tutelage of Antonio McKee at Team Bodyshop in Long Beach, Цалиф., Slice is one of the main sparring partners for A.J. МцКее, Арон Пицо и Joey Davis. Fighting out of St. Луис, Fred Freeman made his professional debut in March, finishing his opponent with punches in the second round of their regional matchup. Before turning pro, Freeman laced up the gloves nine times as an amateur.

 

Set for her fourth Bellator appearance, Sinead Kavanagh returns to the site of her promotional debut, a venue that saw her defeat Elina Kallionidou with a decisive victory at Беллатор 169. A three-time veteran of BAMMA, “KO” most recently took on Арлин Бленцове, who now fights Јулија Корист for the women’s featherweight title. A native of France, Maria Casanova has competed professionally since 2015. With two submission victories on her resume, the KTP Scola-product will look to hand Kavanagh the first submission loss of her career.

The son of respected MMA veteran Antonio McKee, А.Ј. МцКее spent his entire childhood in the gym soaking up every bit of knowledge and experience available to him. The 22-year-old prodigy has applied that knowledge inside the Bellator cage and has made quite a splash in his first eight fights as an MMA professional, racking up six finishes in eight outings. The Long Beach, Калиф. native heads to the East Coast looking to stay undefeated with another impressive finish.

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 Рајан Цоутуре, Дејвид рицкелс, 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 кампања, with wins over Couture and Kevin Souza, as well as a lightweight title shot against Мајкл Чендлер. “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, Тексас, “The Stallion” comes in having won eight of his last 11 крајеви, including knockout victories over Melvin Guillard and Estevan Payan. Са професионалном евиденцијом од 3-1 у Тхацкервилле, 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.

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 Исао Кобаиасхи у "Беллатор 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, Мисури, 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 Арон Пицо, И Рут и Тирелл Фортуне 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.

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 каријера освојити долази путем нокаутом или подношења, Reiter hopes to add to that total with another finish in the first of a two-night special doubleheader in Thackerville, У реду.
