Six of Page’s seven career wins have come via first-round finish.
A 36-year-old Missouri native, Bears began his combat sports training in high school. Fighting professionally since 2007, Bears has appeared seven times previously under the Bellator MMA banner and now returns to the promotion after racking up back-to-back victories on the regional stage. Bears has competed against MMA notables the likes of Zak Cummings, Paul Daley, Jason Ard, Ryan Jensen, Isaac Vallie-Flagg and Tyron Woodley, i measc daoine eile.
