The former Bellator MMA light heavyweight champion will enter the cage for the 10thtime under the Scott Coker-led promotion, tempat dia memposting 8-1 rekor dengan tujuh selesai. Mengikuti 11 kemenangan beruntun untuk memulai karir profesionalnya, McGeary akhirnya merasakan kekalahan yang pahit, pada saat Phil Davis memperebutkan gelar darinya di Bellator 163.

Melakukan debut Bellator di London Juli lalu di London, Gallagher menindaklanjuti pada bulan Desember dengan kemenangan kuncian atas Anthony Taylor di depan penonton tuan rumah yang riuh di 3Arena di Dublin.

SIAPA: Royce Gracie

Kazushi Sakuraba

Wanderlei Silva

Raja Mo

John McCarthy

Matt Mitrione

Royce Gracie

Nama Gracie ini identik dengan MMA, and that is largely in part to Royce Gracie, a man who is considered to have invented the sport as we know it today. Pemenang pertama beberapa acara UFC, Gracie akan membongkar beberapa lawan dalam satu malam, banyak di antaranya yang jauh lebih besar daripada dia. For many years there was no answer for the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu technique that he brought into a fight. Hari Ini, it’s hard to find an MMA fighter who hasn’t trained in the art of Brazilian jiu-jitsu that his father invented. In February of 2016, Gracie headlined “Bellator 149,” an event that shattered company viewership records that remain intact to this day.

 

Kazushi Sakuraba

With an incredible resume highlighted by wins over four members of the legendary Gracie family, including Royler, Renzo, Ryan, and Royce Gracie, Sakuraba has inherited the nickname “The Gracie Hunter.” The Japanese mixed martial artist is especially remembered for his first clash with Royce, a ninety-minute marathon that ended in a TKO (penghentian pojok) victory for Sakuraba nearly 17 bertahun-tahun lalu. Gracie would later avenge his loss, earning a unanimous decision win over Sakuraba at “K-1 Dynamite USA!!" inside the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Saat Ini, almost a decade later, the two legends meet again and Bellator MMA is giving you the chance to be there when it happens!

 

Matt Mitrione

Matt Mitrione originally took his talents to the football gridiron, signing as an undrafted free agent with the New York Giants in 2002. After brief stints with the San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings, Mitrione entered the MMA cage and hasn’t looked back since. The 14-time UFC veteran began his professional career with victories in his first five fights, four of which came by way of knockout. Known as one of the top finishers in the sport, the 37-year-old Indianapolis native recently finished his run with his former employer, making the decision to test free agency. Mitrione will now look to duplicate the success that he found throughout his career, ketika ia bertemu Fedor Emelianenko in San Jose this February.

 

Wanderlei Silva

Former UFC superstar Wanderlei Silva will also be in attendance on Bulan Januari 20, as “The Axe Murderer” prepares for his Bellator MMA debut in the highly anticipated year of 2017.
