BELLATOR NATION INVITED TO EXCLUSIVE FAN FEST DURING BELLATOR NYC FIGHT WEEK

Lascia un commento

 

MEET MMA LEGENDS TITO ORTIZ AND ROYCE GRACIE ON VENERDI, Giugno 23 AT DAVE & BUSTER’S TIMES SQUARE

Los Angeles – Prior to the biggest event in Bellator history, Bellator NYC: Sonnen vs. Silva, fans have the opportunity to meet MMA legends Tito Ortiz e Royce Gracie during an exclusive Fan Fest on Venerdì, Giugno 23 con inizio alle 8 p.m. E at the Dave & Buster’s Times Square location.

 

Dave & Buster, a season-long partner of Bellator MMA, is offering Bellator Nation members the chance to meet two of the biggest names in the sport. Fan Fest is free for Bellator Nation Members with RSVP, who can sign up at www.Bellator.com/fan-fest.

 

Known as one of the toughest competitors in MMA, Tito Ortiz is a fan-favorite across the world. Utilizzando il suo background di wrestling, Ortiz was a punishing competitor who defended his title an impressive five times. Always with a flair for the dramatic, Ortiz engaged in several intense rivalries over his career with the likes of Ken Shamrock and Chuck Liddell. Under the direction of Bellator MMA, the 42-year-old Ortiz claimed a trio of victories that included a pair of first-round finishes over Alexander Shlemenko and Chael Sonnen.

 

Il nome Gracie è sinonimo di MMA, and that is in large part to Royce Gracie, l'uomo che è considerato di avere inventato questo sport come lo conosciamo oggi. Il vincitore della prima serie di eventi UFC, Gracie dismantled multiple opponents in a single night, many of which were much larger than him. For many years, there was no answer for the Gracie jiu-jitsu technique that he brought to the cage. Oggi, it’s difficult to find an MMA fighter who has not trained in the art of Brazilian jiu-jitsu that his father invented. Nel febbraio del 2016, Gracie headlined Bellator 149, an event that shattered company viewership records.

 

Headlined by the long-awaited bout between two of the biggest names in mixed martial arts history, Chael Sonnen (29-15-1) eWanderlei Silva (35-12-1, 1 NC), Bellator NYC: Sonnen vs. Silva airs live on pay-per-view beginning at 10 p.m. E/7 p.m. PT.
