“Estou animado que fomos capaces de reprogramar a Dantas-Richman loitar tan axiña,” dixo bellator Presidente Scott Coker. “O pasado venres, Bellator viu dous concursos galo incribles que produciu un novo campión e unha 'Loita do Ano’ candidato. Both Dantas and Richman are extremely exciting fighters who are undeniable standouts in a bantamweight division with a lot of depth.”

Membro clave da famosa equipo Nova Unión do Brasil, Dantas foi competir profesionalmente desde 2007, loitando en Xapón eo seu Brasil natal, antes de facer o seu camiño cara a bellator MMA. O loitador completo atopou o éxito inmediato, Downing Wilson Reis, Ed Oeste e Alexis Vila para reivindicar unha vitoria no torneo que gañou Dantas un tiro no bellator MMA Bantamweight World Title. Dantas fixo boa sobre a oportunidade, sufocando Zach Makovsky para reivindicar o cinto.

A 25-year-old Dantas defendeu con éxito o cinto dúas veces cun nocaute do actual campión Marcos Galvão e unha vitoria por finalización sobre Anthony Leone, antes de perder unha decisión outubro árdua para o ex-campión Joe Warren nun “Loita do Ano” candidato.

Entrementes, United States Marine Corps veterano Richman comezou a súa carreira profesional en 2008, gañando un impresionante 11-1 rexistro loitando exclusivamente no seu estado natal, Minnesota. Esa carreira valeulle unha chamada do bellator MMA, onde pronto gañou vitorias KO sobre Chris Horodecki e Jeremy Culler nun tempo combinado de só 106 segundos. Resultados mixtos seguiría, como el marcou vitorias sobre Mitch Jackson, Alexandre Bezerra e Akop Stepanyan pero quedou lonxe contra moito mellores loitadores do peso pena en Goiti Yamauchi, Desmond Verde, Magomedrasul Khasbulaev e Shahbulat Shamhalaev.

As perdas solicitado Richman para facer un movemento para abaixo para 135 libras, ea elección pagou dividendos inmediatos. A 29-year-old Richman mirou imbatible no galo, rexistrar devastador KO no primeiro round gaña sobre Nam Phan e Ed Oeste.

O Zwicker man pesada loita na súa cidade natal, ao facer a súa quinta aparición bellator MMA. A 32-year-old loitador Team Quest apareceu máis recentemente en xaneiro, gañando unha vitoria por decisión dividida suada sobre Houston Alexander. Un atacante por natureza, nove de Zwicker de 13 vitorias de carreira viñeron por KO.

Al Hassan fai o seu debut no bellator MMA. Tamén 32 anos, o loitador Roufusport vén competindo profesionalmente desde 2007 e gañou 11 da súa 12 carreira gañou por paralización. Con todo, en contraste co seu adversario, Al Hasan posúe oito desas vitorias por finalización. Al Hasan retorna dunha dispensa de dous anos da competición.

Gonzalez está esperando para gañar o seu camiño para un tiro no bellator MMA Welterweight título mundial cunha vitoria impresionante. Un nativo de MENIFEE, Calif., a 31-year-old ten parecía absolutamente imparable nunha loita de tres bellator MMA run, marcando vitorias consecutivas sobre MMA notables Marius Zaromskis, Houston e Karl Amoussou.

Millender vén de San Bernadino, Califa. A 27-year-old abriu a súa carreira profesional en 2013 con sete vitorias consecutivas, o que lle valeu un lugar no equipo bellator MMA. Con todo, no seu estreo promocional, el foi forzado a someterse a un mata-león contra top contender Brennan “O Bad Boy Irish” Enfermería. Millender mira agora para recuperar desa perda e gañar a súa primeira vitoria bellator MMA.
