PHILIPE LINS-GUILHERME VIANA & THE PROMOTIONAL DEBUT OF BRUNA ELLEN COMPLETE STACKED MAIN CARD

סאַנטאַ מאָניקאַ, קאַליף. (יוני 29, 2016) – A gem of a featherweight contest pitting divisional standouts עממאַנועל סאַנטשעז (13-2) און Daniel “The Weasel” Weichel (36-9) has been added to the main card of "בעללאַטאָר 159: Caldwell vs. Taimanglo” אויף יולי 22 inside Kansas Star Arena in Mulvane, קאַנסאַס. Completing the televised card, פיליפּע לינס (9-1) וועט פּנים וויליאם וויאַנאַ (7-2) in light heavyweight action and Brazilian strawweight Bruna Ellen (2-0) will make her promotional debut against Jessica Middleton.

 

The fights join a main and co-main event that has the MMA world abuzz, featuring the undefeated דאַרריאָן קאָלדוועל (9-0), who will meet Joe Taimanglo (22-6) in a 135-pound main event to determine the No. 1 contender for Bellator MMA’s Bantamweight Championship. In support, Kansas’ own דייוו ריקקעלס (17-4) will return to Mulvane’s Kansas Star Arena to face the always-exciting מעלווין גויללאַרד (32-16-2). דערצו, multiple preliminary contests have also been confirmed, namely, the debut of recent strawweight signee Bruna Vargas (2-0) who will be facing Emily Ducote (2-1) and Uruguay’s favorite MMA superstar, גאַסטאָן ריינאָ (5-1), ווען ער נעמט אויף L.J. Hermeck (3-1). Both of these preliminary bouts will stream live on Bellator.com אוןדי בעללאַטאָר מאָביל אַפּ אָנהייב בייַ 7 פּ.ם. און.

 

"בעללאַטאָר 159: Caldwell vs. Taimanglo אַירס לעבן אויף ספּייק ביי 9 פּ.ם. און/8 פּ.ם. קאָרט. טיקקעץ פֿאַר די געשעעניש אָנהייבן בייַ נאָר $27 and can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com,KansasStarEventCenter.com or the Kansas Star Arena box office. דאָאָרס פֿאַר די געשעעניש עפענען בייַ 5:30 פּ.ם. קאָרט local time and the first preliminary bout will commence one hour later.

 

“The Weasel” has shown great consistency as of late, recording wins in eight of his last nine fights dating back to 2012 over fighters the likes of פּאַט קורראַן און געאָרגי קאַראַכאַניאַן. Since joining Bellator MMA in 2014, the German featherweight has posted a 5-1 רעקאָרד, proving time and time again that he belongs among the division’s elite. Of his 36 career wins, 21 האָבן קומען דורך וועג פון סאַבמישאַן, making Weichel one of the most skilled athletes on the ground. The 31-year-old submission specialist will look to build off his deserving unanimous decision win against Karakhanyan at"בעללאַטאָר 147: Thomson vs. Villaseca," as he prepares to take on “El Matador” inside Kansas Star Arena on יולי 22.

 

Sanchez also enters this contest having won five of his first six bouts under the Bellator MMA banner. Hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin and training at the world-renown Roufusport camp, “El Matadorhas recently put together an impressive run, claiming wins in nine of his last 10 פייץ. The 25-year-old most recently defeated דניאל פּינעדאַ via split decision at the record-shattering "בעללאַטאָר 149: Shamrock ווס. גראַסיע "event in Houston. Sanchez will enter the cage riding a three-fight winning streak, all of which subsequently ended in split decision victories.

 

אין בלויז 30 יאָרן פון עלטער, Viana has impressed only nine fights into his professional career. רובֿ לעצטנס, Viana put his unique skillset on full display against Houston Alexander at "בעללאַטאָר 146: קאַטאָ ווס. מאַנהאָעף," emerging victorious after a second-round knockout. The Brazilian light heavyweight now has seven career finishes to his name, including three in the first round, and will look to add to that total when he enters the cage with fellow Brazilian competitor Philipe Lins on יולי 22.

 

Hailing from Natal, Lins has consistently impressed through his first 10 פאַכמאַן באָוץ, recording nine wins, with four victories coming by way of knockout. After winning his first four professional fights, Lins decided to take an extended break from MMA from 2007 ביז 2011. After the hiatus, Lins rallied off five wins, including his first two bouts under the Bellator MMA umbrella. איצט, “Monstro” will look to return to the cage for the first time since a brutal knee injury that he suffered against Kelly Anundson at “Bellator 122” back in 2014.

 

Undefeated to start her professional career, Bruna Ellen, 20, competed twice in 2015, winning both of her bouts. A member of Team Nogueira Campinas in Sao Paulo, Ellen recently did a stint of training at the world-renown Blackzilians gym in Florida, where she continued to hone her budding striking and skills on the mat. It’s also worth noting that Ellen’s listed on this year’s “Top-Ten Brazilian Prospects” compiled by MMAFighting.com.

 

Eight years the elder of Ellen, Middleton will be making her professional debut after a stellar 4-1 amateur record on the regional scene. If unfamiliar with her work, look no further than her spectacular finish of Holly Torrez via spinning-backfist דאָ.

The loss is just the third of Kielholtz’s career and left the Dutch powerhouse completely speechless in the center of the ring. For the 27-year-old Peritore, the win gives her 11 since making her professional debut only two years ago.

The fight adds to a main card that features a welterweight fight between דאָוגלאַס לימאַ (26-6) and British superstar פאולוס דיילי (38-13-2). דערצו, British Phenom מיכאל "ווענאָם" Page (10-0) will look to remain unbeaten in a welterweight slugfest when he takes on MMA veteran “Cyborg” Santos (21-17) and a light heavyweight bout pitting לינטאָן וואַססעלל (16-5) קעגן פראַנסיס קאַרמאָנט(24-11) round up the main card of what amounts to a stacked Bellator MMA international event.

 

In the United Kingdom, "בעללאַטאָר 158: London” will be broadcast on SPIKE UK from 9 – 10 פּ.ם. BST and Channel 5 פון 10 פּ.ם. – midnight BST. Meanwhile in America, the card will air לעבן און פֿרייַ on SPIKE at 9 פּ.ם. און/פּט.

 

Tickets start at only £40.00 and are on sale now at TheO2.co.uk or The O2 Box Office. Additional bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.

 

יולי 16 marks the Bellator MMA debut of Gallagher, a 19-year-old featherweight prospect, who recently joined the promotion in April. A native of Northern Ireland, the undefeated Gallagher is a teammate of Conor McGregor and has received consistent praise from many top athletes in his highly acclaimed gym of SBG Ireland. Gallagher has begun his professional career with three consecutive victories, all of which have concluded by way of submission in the opening frame. He will look to build on his budding young career when he challenges “Gip” next month at The O2 in London.

 

A native of Hampshire, ענגלאַנד, Cutting will have a unique opportunity to put on a show in front of his fellow countrymen while also making his Bellator MMA debut on יולי 16. “Gip” began his career under the direction of a local promotion in 2010, emerging victorious with a first round rear-naked choke submission over Mike Taylor. A submission specialist, Cutting has since gone on to collect six professional wins, all of which have come by way of submission and three have ended in the opening frame. The British featherweight has his eyes set on putting an end to his opponent’s unblemished mark when the two square off at this highly anticipated event at The O2 this summer.

גאַלוואַאָ, 33, walked into the arena with the belt in tow, riding high on his memorable victory at the expense of דזשאָו וואָראַן אין 2015. But over the course of 25 מינוט, Dantas put a halt to any momentumLorohad, peppering his former training partner’s left-eye with punches, until it swelled shut. Galvao tried valiantly to slow the pace of “דודו” through grappling, but the 27-year-old did enough to earn the nod from the California State Athletic Commission judges and take back the belt that he claimed was his all along.

With the defeat, Galvao’s four-fight winning streak was snapped, while Dantas has now pieced together two consecutive victories. The Nova Uniao product will now set his sights on the winner of דאַרריאָן קאָלדוועל קעגן Joe Taimanglo בייַ “בעללאַטאָר 159,a bout that will determine the new No. 1 contender for Dantasfreshly won title.

The co-main event of the evening featured contrasting styles, מיט טשידי נדזשאָקואַני (15-4) looking to keep the fight at length and utilize his height and reach advantage, ווייַלע Thiago Jambo (18-5) worked hard to close the distance and compete on the inside. “Chidi Bang Bangwon out, cracking the gut of Jambo with a kick that folded the Brazilian to the mat.

After the scrap, the 28-year-old made his interview concise, telling the welterweight division: “anyone can get it.

John Salter Taps Brandon Halsey via Triangle Choke

Throughout the lead up to פרייטיק ס event in Fresno, בראַנדאָן כאַלסי (9-2) made it clear that fans watching would see a new and improved “ביק,” and while the former Fresno State Bulldog did demonstrate a new array of striking, עס איז געווען יוחנן סאָלטער (12-3) who stole the show. The 31-year-old Wilmington, נ.ק. resident caught Halsey on the mat with a triangle choke submission, forcing him to tap out after 4:03 אין דער ערשטער קייַלעכיק. Keeping with the trend of his career thus far, every fight Salter has won has been via submission, furthering his claim for a shot at the promotion’s 185-pound belt.

Honeycutt Impresses Hometown Crowd in Middleweight Debut

In the opening main card contest of “בעללאַטאָר 156: גאַלוואַאָ ווס. דאַנטאַס,” Fresno’s own קריס האָנייקוטט (8-1) welcomed Mikkel Parlo (13-3) back to the Bellator MMA cage with a complete 15-minute performance, building upon the wrestling pedigree he’s known for with a newfound dynamic striking arsenal. Usually Parlo, a Danish fighter who had not competed for the Scott Coker-led promotion since 2014, gets the better of his opponents when the fight stays upright, אָבער אויף פרייטאג, עס איז געווען “די קוטט” who got the better of the punching exchanges. אין די סוף, it was the 27-year-old Honeycutt who walked away with a unanimous decision, pushing out his current winning streak to two bouts and improving to 4-1 under the Bellator umbrella.

וואס: Widely considered the greatest kickboxing champion of all time, Don “The Dragon” Wilson is the only person to win 11 world kickboxing titles in three separate weight divisions. צוזאמען די וועג, he defeated 11 other world champions, 12 number one contenders, 15 champions on four continents and was the first kung-fu practitioner to become a kickboxing world champion. With a professional record of 72 ווינס, 5 losses and 2 draws — 48 coming by way of knockout — “The Dragon” parlayed his success in the ring to multiple high profile roles on the silver screen, notably the legendaryBloodfist” סעריע. קוילעלדיק, Wilson has starred in 29 motion pictures and gained fans all across the globe with his tangible charisma. If you’re not familiar with some of the 5th-degree kickboxing black belt’s combat sports work, look no furtherthan this exciting highlight reel.

 

One of the most recognizable MMA fighters of all time, האַלל פון פאַמער ראַנדי קאָוטורע transitioned nicely into the entertainment world after his fighting career, starring in several television shows and movies, most notably the Expendables franchise and Dancing with the Stars. Inside the cage, Couture was a fearless underdog, often defeating men with great size advantages. “The Natural” was a multi-time heavyweight and multi-time light heavyweight champion in the UFC.

 

“King Mo” has been a mainstay with Bellator MMA since 2013, fighting everyone both the light heavyweight and heavyweight division has to offer. This will be Lawal’s first appearance at one of Bellator MMA’s “Fan Fest” events, giving fans the opportunity to meet the explosive striker for the first time. After his recent main event bout with פיל דייוויס, “Mo” now sets his sights on other “Moneyweight” fights to satiate his thirst.

 

בענסאָן הענדערסאָן has accomplished a great deal over the course of his 10-year professional career as a mixed martial artist. A former WEC and UFC lightweight titlist, “Smooth” holds black belts in both Taekwondo and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and also earned NAIA All-American honors in both 2005 און 2006. Multiple media outlets named Henderson the fighter of the year in 2012, and has been a part of several epic battles that have received “פייט פון די יאר” accolades: Donald Cerrone (2009), Anthony Pettis (2010), Frankie עדגאַר (2012), and Brandon Thatch (2015).

 

Having first fought in the sport almost twenty years ago, very few men have a more legendary resume than וואַנדערלעי סילוואַ. “The Axe Murderer” is a Pride and UFC veteran, who brings an intimidating and imposing presence with him every time he steps into the cage. Currently one of the biggest free agents in the sport, Silva may soon return to action in hopes of adding to an already-impressive list of wins that include: Guy Mezger, Dan Henderson, קאַזושי סאַקוראַבאַ, Ricardo Arona, Kazuyuki Fujita, מיכאל ביספּינג, Cung Le, Brian Stann and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson twice

 

When watching any combat sports event, it’s odd not to see Jacob “Stitch” Duran as the professional cutman on duty. לעצטנס, Bellator MMA was pleased to exclusively secure his services as cutman for the foreseeable future, after “Stitch” signed a multi-year contract with the Scott Coker-led promotion. “Stitch” is seen everywhere combat sports events take place, and played a vital role in the recent smash blockbuster, “Creed.”

 

קאַמף אינפֿאָרמאַציע: "בעללאַטאָר: Dynamite 2” נעמט אָרט אויף פרייַטיק, יוני 24, and airs LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 8 פּ.ם. און/7 פּ.ם.

The fights join a main event that features a middleweight rematch between דזשאָו שילינג (27-8) און היסאַקי קאַטאָ (6-2), who initially competed against one another in a mixed martial arts contest that saw Kato get the better of the kickboxing ace with a “Knockout of the Year” winning superman punch.

A native of California, Daniels is one of the most widely known kickboxers in America, having made a splash as both and amateur and professional. “The Real Deal” went 17-0 ווי אַ ליבהאָבער, מיט נייַן קנאָקקאָוץ, finishing all 17 bouts in the first round. Daniels made his professional debut in 2007, winning each of his first four fights, three of which ended in knockouts for the 36-year-old welterweight. Daniels was also a competitor at Bellator’s inaugural "בעללאַטאָר קיקקבאָקסינג: טאָרינאָ " event in Italy this year, earning his first career victory with the Scott Coker-led promotion. The win was the eighth of his professional career and it came spectacularly 30 סעקונדעס אין די ערשטער קייַלעכיק, giving him five first-round knockouts in total.

 

With a stellar record of 23-2-1, Italian kickboxer Stefano Bruno will have his hands full when he steps into the ring with Daniels on the 24טה of June. One half of what many kickboxing pundits considered the fight of the year in 2015 against Hosam Radwan, Bruno has competed all around the globe and has truly made a name for himself in the welterweight division.

 

The queen of the infamous Skrap Pack in Northern California, Melendez made her first appearance with Bellator during the kickboxing portion of "בעללאַטאָר: דיינאַמייט 1, " recording a unanimous decision victory over Hadley Griffith in front of her home town faithful. Melendez tallied a 4-1 amateur mark before taking her talents to the professional circuit, ווו זי איצט האלט אַ 3-1 קיקקבאָקסינג רעקאָרד. The 32-year-old flyweight will look to build off her impressive debut last year, when she takes on Sarah Howell in the kickboxing portion of Bellator’s “Dynamite 2” אויף יוני 24 at Scottrade Center in St. לוי.

 

Making your professional debut in anything is an arduous task, but making your debut against Melendez will be tougher than usual for Howell, who comes into the fight with no pro experience. Hailing from Washington – which coincidentally was the homestate of Melendez’s last opponentthe proud mother has been documenting her road to “דינאַמיטע 2” through her blog, which can be found דאָ.
