Страна, a highlight reel king before and after the bell rings, was at it again earlier this year, when Bellator MMA invaded the United Kingdom at "Беллатор 158: London.” During his bout, “MVP” took care of business the only way he knows how, with an early stoppage and unforgettable celebration that was heard and seen around the world. Page’s impressive flying knee knockout од Евангелиста "Циборг" Сантос was his ninth stoppage in the opening frame. Сада, the seven-fight Bellator MMA veteran looks to put to rest the opinion that he cannot defeat the always game “Menifee Maniac.”

 

Gonzalez enters the cage currently riding a string of five consecutive victories, all of which have come under the direction of the Scott Coker-led promotion. The 32-year-old Menifee, Цалиф., native has been competing professionally since 2003, са 25 wins under his belt, укључујући 16 of the KO/submission variety. After a brief pause from MMA action to challenge Павле "Семтекс" Дејли in the kickboxing portion of the groundbreaking "Беллатор ММА: Динамите 1 " event in 2015, Gonzalez returned to the sport of MMA, where he recently defeated Гилберт Смит in a split decision win at"Беллатор 151: Ворен вс. Caldwell.” The win improves his overall record under the Bellator MMA banner to 5-0 and now puts him in a position to officially proclaim himself as the only man to beat “Venom,” and further his case for a 170-pound title shot.
