Since making his Bellator MMA debut in 2015, the California native has recorded wins in each of his four bouts, including three consecutive finishes via submission. Piccolotti opened his 2016 campaign with a nifty first round finish of ריי ווד ב "Bellator 154: דייוויס vs. המלך Mo," lifting his overall record to 8-0. The 27-year-old will look to protect his unblemished mark when he challenges Girtz on נובמבר 19 inside SAP Center.

One year removed from an impressive first round finish that left opponent דרק פילדס on the Bellator MMA canvas just 37 seconds into the bout, Girtz returns to the cage in an attempt to build off of his current three-fight winning streak. The Mankato, מ., native holds an impressive 6-2 promotional mark since joining Bellator MMA, including four finishes and a pair of first round knockouts. Since making his professional debut in 2008, the 31-year-old Girtz has recorded 10 מסיים, eight of which have come by way of submission. Having won five of his last six bouts, the powerful grappler will look to pick up right where he left off and further his case for a 155-pound title shot.

A seven-fight veteran of Bellator MMA, Vassell has recorded five wins since making his promotional debut in 2013. The 33-year-old British striker is known for ending fights early with his elite striking and a near-flawless ground game. בסך הכל, “The Swarm” has finished 13 שלו 16 מתנגדים, לְהָבִיא 10 first round finishes and six knockout blows.

The 34-year-old Carmont has stopped his opponent in 17 שלו 25 קריירה זוכה, לְהָבִיא 11 submission victories and six knockouts. ברכת מפריס, צרפת, “Limitless” credits much of his success to the top-notch trainers at Tristar Gym in Montreal, קנדה.

With more than half of his submission finishes coming in the opening round of action, we can expect the dynamic Carmont to attack his opponent right off the bat in hopes of adding to that remarkable total.
