Following what many considered to be 2016’s “Fight of the Year” against Michael Chandler, Henderson took time off to deal with nagging injuries. Зараз, the 33-year-old is back to 100-percent and ready to take on the other “Pitbull” brother, following a victory against Bellator’s current featherweight champion Patricio “Pitbull”at Bellator 160 у жніўні мінулага года. With wins against Nate Diaz, Donald Cerrone, Фрэнкі Эдгар, Gilbert Melendez and Jorge Masvidal already in his nearly 11 years as a professional, “Smooth” is healthy again and looking for another championship run in his already-impressive career.

Patricky “Pitbull” comes into this bout seeking revenge against Henderson following his TKO win over younger brother, Патрык. The Rio Grande Do Norte, Brazil product steps inside the Bellator cage for the18th time in his professional career and will be looking to build on an impressive start to his 2017 кампанія.

The inaugural Bellator welterweight kickboxing champion, Ghajji, traded victories with Zoltan Laszak on his road to meeting Daniels on September 23. 36-гадовы, known to many by the nickname “Gadjetboy,” will be making his fifth appearance under the Bellator Kickboxing umbrella, and will look to successfully defend his title for the first time since reclaiming the belt in April at Bellator Kickboxing 6 у Венгрыі.

Hailing from Los Angeles, Daniels will bring his aggressive, one-of-a-kind karate style to Northern California for the first time since debuting with Bellator last year. Undefeated with the promotion — earning three stoppages in four outings — “The Real Deal” will look to punish the body of Ghajji when Daniels competes to claim his first world kickboxing title.

Барацьба з Лас-Вегаса, Nelson makes his Bellator debut following an eight-year, 19-fight run with UFC that saw him earn wins over Mirko Cro Cop, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, “Bigfoot” Silva and Cheick Kongo. З 19 з яго 22 кар'ера перамог бліжэйшага шляхам накаўту або прадстаўлення, “Big Country” is ready to make his return to Spike, where he memorably defeated the late Kimbo Slice and later went on to win season 10 of The Ultimate Fighter.

Ayala will enter the Bellator cage against Nelson looking for another shocking upset following his last outing against Sergei Kharitonov at Bellator 163, where Ayala stole the show against Kharitonov by stopping the Russian heavyweight with a powerful punch a mere 16-seconds into the first round. Зараз, given the opportunity to formally welcome Nelson to the Bellator fray, “Eye Candy” is looking to stun the crowd once again and firmly establish himself as a threat to the entire heavyweight division. With all five of Ayala’s wins in Bellator coming by way of stoppage, the matchup with Nelson is sure to produce fireworks.

MEET MMA LEGENDS TITO ORTIZ AND ROYCE GRACIE ON Пятніца, Чэрвеня 23 AT DAVE & BUSTER’S TIMES SQUARE

Лос-Анджэлес – Prior to the biggest event in Bellator history, Bellator NYC: Sonnen vs. Сільва, fans have the opportunity to meet MMA legends Ціта Ортиз і Ройс Грэйс during an exclusive Fan Fest on Пятніца, Чэрвеня 23 пачынаючы з 8 p.m. І at the Dave & Buster’s Times Square location.

Дэйв & Бастера, a season-long partner of Bellator MMA, is offering Bellator Nation members the chance to meet two of the biggest names in the sport. Fan Fest is free for Bellator Nation Members with RSVP, who can sign up at www.Bellator.com/fan-fest.

Known as one of the toughest competitors in MMA, Ціта Ортиз is a fan-favorite across the world. Utilizing his wrestling background, Ortiz was a punishing competitor who defended his title an impressive five times. Always with a flair for the dramatic, Ortiz engaged in several intense rivalries over his career with the likes of Ken Shamrock and Chuck Liddell. Under the direction of Bellator MMA, the 42-year-old Ortiz claimed a trio of victories that included a pair of first-round finishes over Alexander Shlemenko and Chael Sonnen.

Назва Грэйс з'яўляецца сінонімам MMA, and that is in large part to Ройс Грэйс, Чалавек, які, як лічыцца, вынайшаў спорту, як мы яго ведаем сёння. The winner of the first several UFC events, Gracie dismantled multiple opponents in a single night, many of which were much larger than him. For many years, there was no answer for the Gracie jiu-jitsu technique that he brought to the cage. Сёння, it’s difficult to find an MMA fighter who has not trained in the art of Brazilian jiu-jitsu that his father invented. In February of 2016, Gracie headlined Bellator 149, an event that shattered company viewership records.

Headlined by the long-awaited bout between two of the biggest names in mixed martial arts history, Соннен (29-15-1) іВандерлей Сілва (35-12-1, 1 Паўночная Караліна), Bellator NYC: Sonnen vs. Сільва airs live on pay-per-view beginning at 10 p.m. І/7 p.m. PT. Emanating from Madison Square in New York City, the mecca of combat sports, this blockbuster event includes a heavyweight bout between MMA legend Фёдар Емяльяненка і бесстаронні Митрион, along with two championship bouts, у тым ліку Дуглас Ліма (28-6) defending his 170-pound strap against Lorenz Larkin(18-5, 1 Паўночная Караліна) and current lightweight champion Майкл Чандлер (16-3) putting his world title on the line against the undefeated Брент прымус (7-0).
