UNDEFEATED ILIMA-LEI MACFARLANE RETURNS HOME TO HAWAII ON DEC. 21 FOR FLYWEIGHT TITLE DEFENSE AGAINST KATE JACKSON EXCLUSIVELY ON DAZN

GEHIAGO, BELLATOR’S FEATHERWEIGHT WORLD GRAND PRIX CONTINUES AS UNDEFEATED A.J. MCKEE MEETS DEREK CAMPOS IN FIRST QUARTERFINAL MATCHUP

Tickets on sale next Friday, Oct. 11



LOS ANGELES – For the second time in as many years, Neal S. Blaisdell Arena Honolulun, Hawaii will host the homecoming of ILIMA-Lei Macfarlane (10-0), as she puts her undefeated record and Bellator women’s flyweight title on the line against No. 1 contender Kate Jackson (11-3-1) in the main event on Saturday, Abendu. 21, streamed exclusively on the DAZN app.



Horrez gain, Bellator Hawaii will feature the first quarterfinal matchup of Bellator’s Featherweight World Grand Prix, when the man with the longest winning streak in promotional history, A.J. McKee (15-0), takes on the always-exciting Derek eremuak (20-9) in the evening’s co-headliner.



Warrior: Macfarlane vs. Jackson – one of the star-powered, year-end highlights of fight season on DAZN – will stream live exclusively on DAZN at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT, while preliminary action will stream on Bellator.com, DAZN eta mundu mailan Bellator Mugikorretarako aplikazioa. Tickets go on sale next Friday, Oct. 11 and can be purchased through Bellator.com, as well as Ticketmaster.com or the Neal S. Blaisdell Arena box office. Additional bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.



Born and raised in Honolulu, current Bellator women’s flyweight champ Macfarlane made her pro debut in 2015 with a KO victory that went viral and has not looked back since, remaining undefeated in her career. With impressive victories over Valerie Letourneau eta Veta Arteaga, Macfarlane was the focal point of Bellator’s debut in Hawaii last year. A proud graduate of Honolulu’s Punahou High School in 2009, Macfarlane later attended San Diego State University, where she would go on to earn her Master’s degree in liberal arts and science with a focus on indigenous issues – a subject she remains passionate about, launching “The Ilimanator Scholarship” for indigenous girls last year. Now Ilima-Lei turns her focus to Kate Jackson, who will be looking to play the role of spoiler when she enters the Bellator cage on December 21.



A winner of seven of her last eight fights, Kate Jackson has earned her way to a title shot against the division’s inaugural champion. A competitor on the 23rd season of Ultimate Fighter, Jackson hails from Lostwithiel, Cornwall, Ingalaterra, and most recently defeated Lena Ovchynnikova Londresen. Jackson made her Bellator debut in 2017 with a first round-victory over of Colleen Schneider and would later go on to dominate Anastasia Yankova at historic Warrior 200 in front of her hometown crowd. Facing the biggest test of her career, Jackson looks to reign atop the flyweight division when she leaves Hawaii.



With an undefeated professional record of 15-0, including six knockouts and eight first round finishes, there doesn’t seem to be much more for the talent-oozing 24-year-old to prove to the MMA community before his name is routinely mentioned among the division’s elite. Fighting out of Long Beach, Kalifornia., “Mercenary” is fresh off of a jaw-dropping performance that saw him finish Georgi Karakhanyan in only eight seconds just moments after watching his father, Antonio McKee, collect a knockout victory in what was the first ever father-son duo to compete on the same card in the US. With all 15 of his career wins coming under the direction of the Scott Coker-led promotion, the Team BodyShop product has made it clear that he has his sights on Patricio “Pitbull” and his 145-pound belt, as he continues to build a strong argument as the new face of Bellator. Constantly looking for new records to break, McKee may have found the perfect match in Campos, as the two brawlers have combined for a remarkable 22 finishes over 36 karrera garaipenekin.



Fighting out of Lubbock, Texas, Campos will be competing in the first of the four quarterfinal matchups in Bellator’s Featherweight World Grand Prix, following a decisive victory over former featherweight world champion Daniel Straus at Warrior 226 this past September. The 31-year-old knockout artist is ready to build on his impressive professional record of 20-9, when he takes on undefeated superstar McKee on December 21. Always ready to trade blows, the heavy-handed veteran has spent much of his time competing in Bellator’s lightweight and welterweight divisions over the past six years of his career. Orain, “The Stallion” hopes to continue his impressive surge in the 145-pound class, as he prepares to go toe-to-toe with one of the most dangerous featherweights in the world. With a shot at one million dollars on the line, Campos will rely on his fearless fighting style and sound wrestling background if he wants to advance in what many have pinned as one of the most anticipated matchups in the second round.

Since signing with Bellator in 2014, the American Top Team-fighter has collected seven victories, highlighted by his middleweight championship win over Brandon Halsey, which he later followed with three successful title defenses. Standing opposite the Brazilian knockout artist will be fellow international powerhouse Vadim Nemkov, as the 27-year-old Russian will look to add to his current five-fight winning streak. Since making his professional debut in 2013, the former Sambo World Champion andFedor Emelianenko-protégé has strung together 10 victories over a dozen bouts, with eight knockouts and eight first round finishes highlighting his resume.

With three wins and a pair of impressive knockouts since joining Bellator, “No Mercy” hopes to find his way back into title contention with a win over the recently signed Bahati. “Black Mamba” enters the Bellator cage for the second time of his career, hoping to duplicate the success he had in May when he finished Amir Dadovic in the opening round ofBellator Birmingham. The 29-year-old middleweight will be making the jump up in weight class to challenge what will undoubtedly be the toughest task of his eight-year career in Manhoef.

 

Gabriel Varga is fresh off an emphatic win in his mixed martial arts debut, a fight he finished with a jumping knee and punches atWarrior 224. Orain, the Toronto-native returns to the sport where he made his name and became the inaugural Bellator Kickboxing 145-pound champion. The 34-year-old Canadian has tallied three knockout wins over a four-fight run, which includes championship victories overKevin Ross and Shan Cangelosi.

Hailing from Pattaya, Tailandiako, the 32-year-old Sudsakorn Sor Klinmee will make his Bellator Kickboxing debut on Oct. 12. The reigning Thailand and World Kickboxing Network Muay Thai welterweight world champion also hopes to add to his extensive professional resume, which includes 289 garaipen eta 74 knockouts.

 

Born in Rome, Sakara will return to his home country for the sixth time since signing with Bellator in 2016. When fighting in Italy under the promotion, “Legionarius” has amassed three victories, all of which ended in a knockout. The 37-year-old former world title contender has earned 20 karrera garaipenekin, Barne 16 finishes and 14 knockouts, making him one of the most dangerous 205-pound athletes on the roster. Tasked with the opportunity to spoil Sakara’s homecoming is 39-year-old Oklahoman Canaan Grigsby, who is also known for his ability to put his adversaries away early in the fight. With seven of his eight career victories coming by way of knockout, including four first round-finishes, “Super Beast” will be looking for the biggest win of his seven-year professional career when he steps inside the Bellator cage for the first time.

BELLATOR-ek FEDOR EMELIANENKO KONDAIRA HEAVYWEIGHT BERRIZTEA SINATU DU AGUR BURUAREN AURREKO BORROKA ANITZEKO KONTRATUA ESKlusIBOA EGITEKO

LOS ANGELES — Bellator harro dago MMA errusiar bikaina dela iragarri duelako Fedor Emelianenko (38-6, 1 NC) borroka anitzeko kontratu luzapen esklusiboa sinatu du bere ibilbidea Bellator kaiolan amaitzeko.



Emelianenkoren agurreko birak Bellatorren pisu astuneko dibisioan jarraitzen du promozioko zortzi gizonezkoen pisu astuneko Munduko Sari Nagusian burututako final baten harira. Stary Oskoletik, Belgorod oblasta, Errusiak, "Azken Enperadoreak" duela gutxi lehen itzuliko kanporaketak lortu zituen Chael Sonnen eta Frank Mir torneoko finalerdietan eta hasierako txandan, hurrenez hurren.



«Pozik nago Fedor fitxatu ahal izan dugulako, garai guztietako pisu astun handiena, kontratu luzapen berri batera,"Bellator presidente Scott Coker-ek esan zuen. "Negozio honetako lagun bat dela uste dudan norbait da eta are pozik nago Bellatorrekin bere ibilbide historikoa amaitzea erabaki duelako.. Badira berarentzako jokaldi zirraragarriak Bellator-en, iraganeko zaleei erakarriko dietela, baita txapelketan azkenaldian egindako zale berriak ere. Kirol garaian behera egin ahala, Pozik nago bere ibilbidea bere baldintzekin ixten ikustean ".



“Scott Cokerrekiko nire adiskidetasun eta errespetu sendoak kontratuaren luzapenera iristea prozesu sinplea bihurtu zuen,”Esan du Fedor Emelianenkok. "Bellator nire etxea da. Espero dut Bellatorri hazten eta bere potentzial osoa lortzen laguntzea munduko MMA promozio goren gisa.”





PRIDE pisu handiko txapelduna izandakoa eta PRIDE 2004 Pisu astunen Munduko Sari Nagusiko txapelduna, Emelianenko mundu osoko zaleek "AHUNTZA" deitu ohi dute. Antônio Rodrigo Nogueiraren aurkako garaipenak biltzen dituen kirolaren historiako ikusgarrienetakoa den karreraren curriculuma., Mirko Cro Cop, Mark Hunt, Mark Coleman eta Andrei Arlovski, batzuk aipatzearren. With 29 karrerako garaipenak helmugan amaitu arte, botere zulatzailea eta mundu mailako klase errusiar estoikoaren Sambo-k beti izan dezakete beste aitorpen bat bere ibilbide ospetsuan.



Emelianenko Bellator kaiolara itzultzea oraindik zehazteke dago, baina aurten ekintzetara itzultzea espero da.
