No co-main event, former Bellator MMA Featherweight Titlist Pat Curran (21-7) vai regressar à acção, pela primeira vez desde Junho, when he faces the always-dangerous Georgi Karakhanyan (24-5-1).

 

Os ingressos para "Bellator 155: Carvalho vs. Manhoef " começam em apenas $25 and go on sale next Sexta-feira, Março 4 em Bellator.com, the CenturyLink Arena Box Office, CenturyLinkArenaBoise.com or by phone at 208-331-TIXS.

Carvalho’s second-round body kick knockout of Brandon Halsey em "Bellator 144: Halsey vs. Carvalho” was the third biggest oddsmaker upset in 2015, and extended his current winning streak to 12. The 29-year-old will be making his fourth appearance under the Bellator MMA banner and has an impressive finishing rate of 83 por cento.

With a resume of knockouts as violent as Manhoef, it’s no surprise the Dutch competitor has been given the nickname of “No Mercy.” Known for his relentless striking style, the former K-1 and Strikeforce competitor is fresh off his emphatic knockout of Hisaki Kato em "Bellator 146: Manhoef vs. Kato” em Novembro. Now the 39-year-old is in position to lay claim to the Bellator 185-pound MMA title, before returning to kickboxing competition in the newly founded Bellator Kickboxing league.

 

It’s hard to find a Bellator MMA fighter with as many memorable moments for the Scott Coker-led promotion as Pat Curran. The former featherweight kingpin has been involved in wars with fighters the likes of: current champion Daniel Straus, Patricio Freire, Daniel Weichel, e Joe Warren. Now “Paddy Mike” sets his sights on “Insane,” in a bout that surely has future title implications at stake.

 

Karakhanyan made a splash in his return to Bellator MMA in 2015, sufocando Bubba Jenkins in his first fight for the Viacom-owned promotion since 2011. Agora, the Millenia MMA standout will put his knack for submitting opponents (14X) to the test against Curran, a fighter who has only been submitted once in 28-fights.
