After earning victories in each of his first seven professional contests, the 38-year-old Thomson joined forces with the UFC and Strikeforce, stringing together an impressive resume that included notable wins over Nate Diaz and Gilbert Melendez. Now under the direction of Bellator MMA, “The Punk” has recorded back-to-back finishes in his first two bouts with the Scott Coker-led promotion. Avec 16 de son 22 victoires de carrière à venir par voie d'élimination directe ou de la soumission, Thomson is always a threat to end his opponent’s night early.

Hailing from Rio Grande Do Norte, Brésil, Freire has notched 10 knockouts over his professional career, with five of the finishes coming in the opening round of action.
