Além, uma batalha de peso pena Henry Corrales (18-6) contra Vladyslav Parubchenko (16-2) está definido para dar início à ação do card principal no SHOWTIME ao vivo no sábado, Outubro 16 em 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT.

Ambas as lutas semifinais para o BELLATOR Light Heavyweight Grande Prêmio Mundial encabeçará o cartão no Footprint Center, casa do Phoenix Suns e Phoenix Mercury.

Contundente Henry Corrales se reintroduz nas fileiras dos penas, assumindo o guru da submissão Vladyslav Parubchenko na luta de abertura do card principal. Com 13 da sua 18 vitórias profissionais vindos por meio de acabamento, “OK” Corrales entra na gaiola com outro finalizador conhecido, como Parubchenko terminou 14 da sua 16 vitórias com paralisações. Ambos os lutadores estão na mistura dentro de uma divisão de penas BELLATOR empilhada, e com uma vitória, qualquer lutador poderia causar um impacto imediato no ranking de 145 libras.

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

 

MEET MMA LEGENDS TITO ORTIZ AND ROYCE GRACIE ON Sexta-feira, Junho 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 Sexta-feira, Junho 23 começando no 8 p.m. E at the Dave & Buster’s Times Square location.

 

Dave & Buster de, 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. Utilizando sua experiência de 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. Sob a direção do 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.

 

O nome Gracie é sinônimo de MMA, and that is in large part to Royce Gracie, o homem que é considerado ter inventado o esporte como a conhecemos hoje. O vencedor das primeiras vários eventos do 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. Hoje, it’s difficult to find an MMA fighter who has not 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.
