BELLATOR MMA CHAMPION ILIMA-LEI MACFARLANE DEFENDS FLYWEIGHT WORLD TITLE AGAINST UNDEFEATED JULIANA VELASQUEZ ON THURSDAY, December. 10

Oktober 29, 2020 FNU47 Efterlad en kommentar

**LOS ANGELES** – On Thursday, December 10, Bellator MMA presents a long-awaited world title bout featuring a clash of undefeated flyweights, as champ **Ilima-Lei Macfarlane** (11-0) defends her 125-pound championship belt against Brazil’s **Juliana Velasquez** (10-0) på *Bellator 254.* The event airs live on CBS Sports Network from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

Returning to the Bellator cage for the first time since a victory over **Kate Jackson** in her hometown of Honolulu last December, Macfarlane will look to continue her dominance over Bellator’s elite woman’s flyweight division as she defends her title against Julianna Velasquez on December 10. The inaugural Bellator flyweight champion, Macfarlane enters the contest with a perfect professional record of 11-0, including eight coming by way of stoppage. Adding to her impressive resume, “The Ilimanator” has the most victories amongst women in the Bellator cage (10) and has no plans of slowing down, as she seeks to add to her legacy inside the cage with her fifth successful title defense at *Bellator 254.*

With a professional record of 10-0, Rio de Janeiro’s Juliana Velasquez looks to remain perfect in her first chance at Bellator gold. The black belt judoka will attempt to become the second women’s flyweight champion in Bellator history when she looks to extend her promotional winning streak to six. With prior stoppage wins over Rebecca Ruth and Kristina Williams, Velasquez also defeated former 125-pound title challenger **Alejandra Lara** en route to her upcoming title shot. Much like Macfarlane, the 34-year-old Team Nogueira-product will be competing for the first time in 2020, nearly a year removed from her *Bellator 236* enstemmig afgørelse sejr over **Bruna Ellen**.

**MERE, DARRION CALDWELL MEETS UNDEFEATED AJ MCKEE IN SEMIFINALS ON NOV. 19**

**LOS ANGELES** — The Bellator Featherweight World Grand Prix resumes Thursday, November. 12 with two quarterfinal matchups set to take place, as champ **Patricio “Pitbull”** (30-14) defends his title against **Pedro Carvalho** (11-3), mens **Daniel Weichel** (40-11) og **Emmanuel Sanchez** (19-4) square off in a battle of former title contenders.

In addition to the five-round championship headliner, a second Bellator Featherweight World Grand Prix quarterfinal will go down, as two former title challengers in Weichel and Sanchez meet again following a razor-thin split decision-victory for Weichel in 2016. The winners of these two bouts can expect to see each other in the next semifinal matchup.

Den *Bellator 253* headliner on Nov. 19 sees former bantamweight world champion Caldwell go toe-to-toe with rising prospect McKee on the other side of the bracket in the first semifinal. The winner earns a guaranteed spot in the finals and a shot at the Bellator world title and a chance to take home one million dollars.

All three Featherweight World Grand Prix bouts were initially slated to take place at the postponed *Bellator 241* og *Bellator 244* events prior to the COVID-19 pandemic effectively putting the yearlong tournament on hiatus.

**CBS Sports Network** vil luft *Bellator 252: Pitbull vs. Carvalho* og *Bellator 253: Caldwell vs. McKee* LIVE in all U.S. markets at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT, while preliminary matchups will stream on CBSSports.com and Bellator MMA’s YouTube channel. Additional bouts will be announced at a later date.

Hailing from Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasilien, two-time featherweight champ Patricio “Pitbull” will enter the Bellator cage for a promotional record 23rd time on Nov. 12. With impressive wins to his credit over Michael Chandler, **Daniel Straus** (x3), **Daniel Weichel** (x2) og **Pat Curran**, the 33-year old continues on in the Featherweight World Grand Prix not far removed from his lightweight championship victory in May of last year. Having earned a finish in 21 sin 30 vinder som en professionel, the simultaneous two-division champion most recently bested current bantamweight champion **John Archuleta** on the scorecards in an exciting opening round World Grand Prix matchup and fans can certainly expect more fireworks when he finally sets his sights on Carvalho.

Portuguese submission specialist Pedro Carvalho will be entering the Bellator cage for just the fifth time in his eight-year professional career, looking for his seventh consecutive victory and his first world title victory. With victories in nine of his last 11 konkurrencer, including against Derek Campos, Daniel Crawfordand a face crank-submission over Sam Sicilia in the opening round, the 25-year-old SBG Ireland-product is on the cusp of greatness – and winning the Bellator Featherweight World Grand Prix would be the perfect way to solidify it.

Med over 50 professional fights to his name, Germany’s Daniel Weichel is ready to make his 2020 debut in a highly anticipated World Grand Prix quarterfinal bout with Sanchez, a fighter Weichel got the better of four years ago at *Bellator 159*. Following his Bellator debut in 2014, “Drake” has enjoyed an impressive promotional mark of 9-3, including pivotal victories over Sanchez, Pat Curran, **Georgi Karakhanyan** og **Saul Rogers**.

On the heels of yet another masterful performance that ended in a submission victory over **Tywan Claxton** in the opening round of the World Grand Prix, “El Matador” is ready for another title run as he prepares for the 50-fight veteran and the man who beat him once before, Daniel Weichel. Since joining forces with Bellator in 2014, the Milwaukee, Wisc.-resident has collected 11 victories over a 14-fight stint, including key wins over the likes of Claxton, Daniel Straus, Marcos Galvao and Georgi Karakhanyan (2x).

Having needed just one round to put away his last opponent via submission in the quarterfinals of the World Grand Prix, Darrion Caldwell is on a mission to regain Bellator gold. “The Wolf,” a former North Carolina State University NCAA National Champion wrestler, has looked unstoppable since moving up to the featherweight division, having defeated **Adam Borics,** samt **Henry Corrales** in the opening round of the tournament. Nu, the former bantamweight champ sits only two victories away from holding a title in his second division – a feat very few athletes can claim.

Touted by ESPN as the best fighter in MMA under the age of 25, **AJ McKee** looks to back up the lofty expectations often held by the public for second generations-athletes. Undefeated in his career, “The Mercenary” has made himself known to the world through his flashy persona and trash talk, men vigtigst, his work inside the Bellator cage. With every one of his pro bouts taking place with Bellator, the Long Beach-native can achieve what he set out to do beginning at *Bellator 146* i 2015 and become world champion with just two more wins.

Also announced for *Bellator 252*…is a third main card bout featuring the always-exciting **Aaron Pico** (6-3) of Jackson-Wink MMA Academy in Albuquerque, N.M., who returns for his second appearance inside Bellator’s “FightSphere, having previously defeated Solo Hatley Jr. in impressive fashion at *Bellator 242.* He will take on Pittsburgh’s **Johannes af Jesus** (13-8), who was most recently victorious at *Bellator 244* against Vladyslav Parubchenko, in what promises to an explosive featherweight contest.

The winner of *The Ultimate Fighter* årstid 19 was ranked fourth in the UFC’s 205-pound division at the time of his departure, having defeated top opponents, including current champion Jan Blachowicz, Johnny Walker, Ilir Latifi and Glover Teixeira. Prior to honing his MMA under world-renowned BJJ ace Ricardo Almeida, the 31-year-old became a two-time NCAA All-American wrestler and earned his degree in business administration from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. “Overtime” will look to ascend to the top of a crowded Bellator light heavyweight class that includes champion **Vadim Nemkov**, **Phil Davis**, **Ryan Bader**, **Lyoto Machida**, nybegynder **Christian Edwards** and former LFA champ **Alex Polizzi**.

ENGLERNE -Bellator MMA has today confirmed the full fight card forBellator 247: Daley vs. Anderson, which takes place Thursday, Oktober. 1 at Allianz Cloud in Milan, Italien.

Bellator 247: Daley vs. Andersonkicks off the new partnership between Bellator MMA and CBS Sports Network, which will air the event LIVE Thursday, Oktober. 1 (4 p.m. OG) from Italy’s fashion capital. Beginning with this event, CBS Sports Network will televise Bellator MMA events, both domestic and international, LIVE in all U.S. markeder, while preliminary matchups will stream on CBSSports.com and Bellator MMA’s YouTube channel.

In addition to the exciting welterweight main event between veteranPaul Daley (42-17-2) ogDerek Anderson (16-3, 1 NC), three other main card bouts are now confirmed, with the additions ofNorbert Novenyi Jr. (5-0) at tage påLaid Zerhouni(7-5) ved mellemvægt, a flyweight matchup between former title challengerKate Jackson (11-4-1) and current Bellator Kickboxing flyweight championDenise Kielholtz (5-2), as well as a lightweight contest pittingIlias Bulaid (2-0) mod Ivan Naccari(Pro Debut) in an explosive opening bout.

På den foreløbige kort, IrlandsBrian Moore (12-7) will make his return to the Bellator cage following injury against Italy’sSimone D’anna(7-2) at 145-pounds. Også, four welterweight bouts are official, når ubesejretJustin Burlinson (5-0) faces fellow unbeaten foeBobby Pallett(5-0), Lewis Long (17-6) meets former Bellator headlinerGianni Melillo(13-5), Walter Gahadza (18-5) returns against the undefeatedUros Jurisic(10-0) ogKywan Gracie (1-0) continues his young MMA career against Moldova’sConstantin Gnusariev (3-0-1).

Originally slated to face Liz Carmouche prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, flyvevægtMandy Bohm (6-0, 1 NC) gets a new assignment and welcomesGriet Eeckhout(5-3-1) to the Bellator cage in the first of two women’s preliminary bouts atBellator 247: Daley vs. Anderson.The second pitsJade Jorand modMonika Tochlikovain an atomweight contest that will serve as both fighters’ professional debuts.

Derudover, two Bellator veterans welcome two new athletes to the Bellator cage, nårLee Chadwick (25-15-1) goes to battle with London Shootfighters-productEderson Cristian Macedo(10-5) at light heavyweight and SBG Ireland’sBlaine O’Driscoll(8-3) tests his skills against France’sSalah Elkas(6-6) in a flyweight affair. Til sidst, a 160-pound contract weight bout has been booked, as undefeatedChris Duncan (6-0) opfylderIamik Furtado (6-3).

A proud Hungarian, Norbert Novenyi Jr. enters the Oct. 1 contest boasting a perfect professional mark of 5-0, including a trio of submissions and two first-round finishes. The middleweight will be making his fourth appearance for Bellator MMA, collecting decisive wins in each of the previous three contests. Another decisive finish atBellator 247 could place the London Shootfighters-product into the mix at the top of the 185-pound division. Hailing from Montpellier, Frankrig, Zerhouni will be making his first appearance of 2020 and first fight on a Bellator card, where he will be searching for his fourth win over his last five fights. With each of his five career victories coming by way of knockout or submission, including four in the opening round, the 24-year-old finisher will look for yet another early stoppage in the co-main event ofBellator 247.

Fighting out of Amsterdam, 31-year-old Denise Kielholtz will be making her second MMA appearance of her 2020 campaign and seventh since joining Bellator MMA in 2017. Med 47 career kickboxing wins, including a Bellator Kickboxing women’s flyweight championship, the multi-dimensional Dutch Muay Thai fighter hopes to extend her current three-fight winning streak when she enters the cage in Milan. “Miss Dynamite” also enters the contest riding a successful streak that includes five victories in six contests, highlighted by a trio of first-round finishes. With victories in four of her past six contests and nine of her last 12, Kate Jackson comes into the bout riding one of the hottest streaks in the women’s flyweight division. Hailing from Cornwall, England, the former Bellator flyweight No. 1-contender will be looking to add to her six career knockouts, a total that includes five in the first round. The 34-year-old Jackson is hoping a win over Kielholtz puts her right back into the 125-pound world title conversation.
