Les deux premiers combats, de ce qui promet d'être l'un des événements les plus passionnants de l'histoire de l'entreprise, comprend un champion des poids moyens Rafael Carvalho (15-1) défendre sa couronne contre Gegard Mousasi (43-6-2) et le retour du propre de Londres Michael "Venom" la page (12-0), qui prend David "The Caveman" Rickels (19-4, 2 Caroline du Nord).

Une pré-vente spéciale SSE aura lieu Mercredi, Février 28, tandis que toutes les autres préventes, y compris la Nation Bellator, va commencer Jeudi, Mars 1.

«Bellator continue de mettre fortement l'accent sur son expansion sur les marchés du monde entier et sur la création d'une forte présence au Royaume-Uni.. est une partie très importante de cela,» Bellator Président Scott Coker a déclaré. «Nos fans vont être enthousiasmés par la carte que nous avons créée pour cet événement monumental, comme Bellator 200 sera l’une de nos meilleures à ce jour. »

Voler tranquillement sous le radar en tant que champion actuel du Bellator en titre, Rafael Carvalho reçoit son défi le plus difficile à ce jour lorsqu'il rencontre Mousasi à Londres. Un produit de Rio de Janeiro, Brésil, Carvalho a rejoint la liste des Bellator en 2014, attirer l'attention des fans qui se sont mis à l'écoute Bellator 125 en terminant catégoriquement Brian Rogers au premier tour. La course ne s’est pas arrêtée là, alors que le joueur de 31 ans est vaincu Joe Schilling, Alessio Sakara, Melvin Manhoef (2x) et Brandon Halsey, égaler le record de la plupart des défenses de titre dans l'histoire de la division dans le processus.

Gegard Mousasi impressionné lors de ses débuts promotionnels sur l'ancien champion des poids moyens du Bellator Alexander Shlemenko, une victoire qui a poussé sa séquence sans défaite actuelle à six combats. «Le capteur de rêves,»Qui s'entraîne actuellement depuis les Pays-Bas, détient l'un des CV les plus impressionnants de tout le sport, à un moment donné le titre des poids lourds légers STRIKEFORCE, ainsi que les titres DREAM des poids lourds légers et moyens. Avec des victoires contre certains des meilleurs du sport, dont Chris Weidman, Vitor Belfort, Uriah salle, dan Henderson, «Jacare» Souza, Mark Hunt et Ovince Saint-Preux, la ceinture noire de judo jettera désormais son dévolu sur l'or du Bellator lorsqu'il entrera dans la cage en mai 25.

Il y a peu de combattants qui, en si peu de temps, ont fourni le type de divertissement sur bobine que Michael Page a. Maintenant, «MVP» revient dans la cage du Bellator pour la première fois depuis 2016, une année qui a vu Page devenir virale pour son genou volant parfaitement chronométré contre le vétéran de 40 combats «Cyborg» Santos et la célébration bien orchestrée qui comprenait le tirage au sort d'un Pokéball. 2017 a vu Page entrer avec succès dans le domaine de la boxe, où il a remporté ses débuts via TKO. À Bellator 200, le natif de Londres fera sa neuvième apparition pour Bellator, être invaincu et terminer son adversaire dans le cadre d'ouverture à cinq reprises.

David Rickels a concouru sous la bannière Bellator plus de fois que quiconque dans l'histoire de la promotion avec 19 et prolongera le record quand il reviendra à 170 livres pour la première fois depuis le tournoi Bellator des poids welter de la saison six en 2012. La fierté combative de Derby, Le Kansas vient de remporter une victoire par décision unanime contre Adam Piccolot ce passé Décembre, améliorant sa séquence de victoires actuelle à deux. Jamais du genre à craindre une ferraille, cette confrontation devrait produire des feux d’artifice lorsque le style de «The Caveman’s» se heurte au fanfaron peu orthodoxe de «MVP».

“The King of Kansas” will once again compete on the Spike-televised main card of Bellator MMA’s return to Kansas Star Arena. A 17-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Rickels will return to action for the first time since competing against Melvin Guillard this past summer. “The Caveman” has strung together an impressive career, soit un total de 11 wins over his seven years with the promotion, including four of his five career knockouts. A native of Derby, Kansas, Rickles recently delivered a brutal first round knockout in his co-main clash with Bobby Cooper at "Bellator 150: Kongo vs. Spartan.” The 27-year-old Rickels now prepares for Aaron Derrow, who enters the bout undefeated since joining Bellator MMA in 2014.

A native of Blue Springs, Missouri, Derrow has made an immediate impact on the promotion, collecting victories in each of his first two fights under the Bellator MMA umbrella. Following his hot start, “Daddy Long Legs” will now be tasked with one of the lightweight divisions most proven veterans in David Rickels.

With an unblemished mark of 7-0, Harris enters the cage riding an impressive string of success to begin his professional career. Fighting out of Wichita, Kansas, Harris will have the luxury of competing in front of his home crowd as he prepares to make his third appearance under the Bellator MMA banner. Harris has a knack for finishing his opponents early and often, recording six wins by way of knockout or submission, including four in the first round. The 26-year-old knockout artist will look to build off of a commendable 2016 campaign that saw him emerge victorious in each of his three contests, including a pair of wins with the Scott Coker-led promotion.

Also boasting an undefeated record through five career bouts, the 22-year-old Young will make his promotional debut against the equally impressive Harris. Of his five career wins, four have come by way of submission, with each of the four finishes occurring in the opening round of action. Prior to making his professional debut in 2014, the submission specialist had similar success on the amateur circuit, where he collected four submission victories over a five-fight span. Fighting out of Urbandale, Iowa, the 6’4’’ Young will also hold a significant height advantage over the 5’11’’ Harris as he prepares to challenge one of the most aggressive opponents of his career.
