Ройс Грейсі

Назва Грейсі є синонімом MMA, and that is largely in part to Royce Gracie, a man who is considered to have invented the sport as we know it today. The winner of the first several UFC events, Грейсі б демонтувати кілька супротивників протягом однієї ночі, багато з яких були набагато більше, ніж він. For many years there was no answer for the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu technique that he brought into a fight. Сьогодні, it’s hard to find an MMA fighter who hasn’t trained in the art of Brazilian jiu-jitsu that his father invented. У лютому 2016, Gracie headlined “Bellator 149,” an event that shattered company viewership records that remain intact to this day.

 

Сакураба

With an incredible resume highlighted by wins over four members of the legendary Gracie family, including Royler, Renzo, Райан, and Royce Gracie, Sakuraba has inherited the nickname “The Gracie Hunter.” The Japanese mixed martial artist is especially remembered for his first clash with Royce, a ninety-minute marathon that ended in a TKO (corner stoppage) victory for Sakuraba nearly 17 багато років тому. Gracie would later avenge his loss, earning a unanimous decision win over Sakuraba at “K-1 Dynamite USA!!" inside the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Зараз, almost a decade later, the two legends meet again and Bellator MMA is giving you the chance to be there when it happens!

 

Мітріон

Matt Mitrione originally took his talents to the football gridiron, signing as an undrafted free agent with the New York Giants in 2002. After brief stints with the San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings, Mitrione entered the MMA cage and hasn’t looked back since. The 14-time UFC veteran began his professional career with victories in his first five fights, four of which came by way of knockout. Known as one of the top finishers in the sport, the 37-year-old Indianapolis native recently finished his run with his former employer, making the decision to test free agency. Mitrione will now look to duplicate the success that he found throughout his career, коли він зустрічає Федір Ємельяненко in San Jose this February.

 

Вандерлей Сілва

Former UFC superstar Wanderlei Silva will also be in attendance on Січень 20, as “The Axe Murderer” prepares for his Bellator MMA debut in the highly anticipated year of 2017. The man who has consistently called him out since joining the Scott Coker-led promotion, Соннен, will be competing in the main event of ‘Bellator 170’ just one day after the “Fan Fest.” A 48-fight veteran, Silva joined the Bellator MMA fray following an illustrious career with UFC, sifting through middleweight powerhouses Cung Le, Brian Stann, and current division champion Michael Bisping. З 25 з його 35 career victories coming by way of knockout, the 40-year-old Brazilian hotshot is eager to make his presence felt inside the Bellator MMA cage. Join us for ‘Bellator 170’ “Fan Fest” in Los Angeles and meet the legend himself before he makes his promotional debut.

This will be Lawal’s second appearance at Bellator MMA’s “Fan Fest” event, giving fans another opportunity to meet the explosive striker outside of the cage. After his recent main event victory over Сатоши Ишии, “Mo” now sets his sights on other “Moneyweight” bouts to satiate his thirst.
