I know that Chris still has a lot of fight left in him and I’m excited to see him fight We are hoping to see his Bellator debut this Spring.”

 

“Focusing on just coaching at Victory MMA has been amazing, but recently, I started to get the itch to compete again,” Leben said. “So I extended an olive branch to the people at Bellator and here I am.

Τα εισιτήρια για αυτήν την μικτές πολεμικές τέχνες υπερβολή ξεκινούν από μόλις $50 και είναι στην πώληση τώρα στο Bellator.com, καθώς HoustonToyotaCenter.com, τα ταμεία του Toyota Center και οι τοποθεσίες του Randall στην περιοχή του Χιούστον.

 

"Bellator 149: Shamrock vs. Gracie " βγήκε στον αέρα ζωντανά και δωρεάν στο Spike 9 μ.μ. ET / 8 μ.μ.. CT, ενώ η προκαταρκτική περιόδους θα καταγράψει ζωντανή στο Bellator.com και Η Bellator Mobile App.

 

Ο Guillard έπαθε α φρικτό σπασμένο χέρι κατά το ντεμπούτο του στο Bellator MMA εναντίον Brandon Girtz νωρίτερα αυτό το έτος. Το "The Young Assassin" έχει ξεκαθαρίσει ότι σκοπεύει να αγωνιστεί τελικά για τον τίτλο των 155 λιβρών, και ο δρόμος του προς το χρυσό ξεκινά τον Φεβ. 19 against a tough Texas native with plenty to prove. Του Guillard's 32 κερδίζει ως επαγγελματίας, 23 οι νίκες έχουν έρθει πριν φτάσουν στο σκορ των κριτών.

 

Known as “The Stallion” to those familiar with his mixed martial arts career, Campos will come into his meeting with Guillard riding a two-fight skid. During his eight-fight tenure with Bellator MMA, the 27-year-old Texan has faced a plethora of top lightweight talent, going up against names the likes of: Michael Chandler, Patricky Freire, Brandon Girtz (2x), and Estevan Payan.

 

You would be hard-pressed to find a better story in all of MMA than the one that Wren can tell. The two-time National High School Wrestling Champion generated massive amounts of media attention on the road to his promotional debut at "Bellator 141: Guillard vs. Girt,” where he defeated Josh Burns. His story begins several years earlier, σε 2010, when Wren confronted an opponent tougher than any he could face in combat sports: addiction.

 

With an opportunity to continue fighting on the table, Wren left the sport and began his recovery process. A chance meeting with a friend led Wren on a trip to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where he came across and developed a deep connection with the Mbuti Pygmies, many of whom were enslaved, living on only the scraps the slave masters would pay them with. Wren found his calling there and wanted to do everything in his power to help the Pygmies. With multiple visits to the Congo, including a stint that lasted a year, Wren started a foundation called “Fight for the Forgotten.” Through his efforts, Wren and his staff of 17 have systematically bought the land of the slave owners, and have thus far legally given 2,740 acres of rainforest to the Pygmies, effectively freeing them from slavery.

 

Partnering with other groups like Shalom University and joining forces with Water4.org, Wren and his charity are responsible for drilling 26 water wells to help provide both the Pygmies and the former slave masters with clean water, and have plans to drill hundreds more. Εξάλλου, the team has begun a sustainable farming project to benefit and provide food to both the Pygmies and non-Pygmies of the community.
