Description automatically generated with medium confidence — **PARIS, FRANCE –** Two iconic mixed martial artists with an undeniable track record of thrilling performances will square up as **Yoel Romero** (13-6) assume **Melvin Manhoef** (32-15-1, 2 NC) in the co-main event of BELLATOR MMA’s return to Paris’ Accor Arena on Friday, Maio 6. *BELLATOR PARIS: Bader vs. Kongo 2* will be televised live in America on SHOWTIME at 10 p.m. CEST/4 p.m. E.

With mixed martial arts becoming legalized in France in 2020, BELLATOR became the first promotion to hold a major MMA event with *Bellator 248* in October of that year. The success of that historic card propelled BELLATOR to make a return to “The City of Lights” in 2022 in a big way with a main event featuring undisputed BELLATOR MMA Heavyweight Champion, **Ryan Bader** (29-7, 1 NC) defending his crown in enemy territory against hometown favorite and No. 2-ranked heavyweight **Cheick Kongo** (31-11-2, 1 NC).

In addition to the main and co-main event, a lightweight tilt pitting the last man to defeat media darling Paddy Pimblett, **Søren Bak** (15-1) against England’s **Saul Rogers** (15-4) is also official. Bak has only tasted defeat once in his 16 professional fights and held both the featherweight and lightweight titles in Cage Warriors before joining the BELLATOR roster. Fighting out of Denmark, “The True Viking” is riding a seven-fight win streak into battle against the SBG Manchester product, Rogers. Known as “The Hangman,” Rogers also has amassed 15 victories on his resume including wins over Artem Lobov, Ryan Hall and Georgi Karakhanyan.

The preliminary card is guaranteed to feature a showcase of French talent and has begun to take shape with the return of **Yves Landu** (16-9), who takes on Liverpool’s **Gavin Hughes** (10-2) in a lightweight affair. Preliminary card action will stream live on the BELLATOR MMA YouTube channel, Canal SHOWTIME Sports no YouTube e Pluto TV começando em 6:30 p.m. CEST/12:30 p.m. E.

Lutando fora de Miami, Florida, Romero will be making his second BELLATOR appearance on May 6 em Paris. Após uma passagem de sete anos sob a direção do UFC, the American Top Team-product became one of the most sought-after free agents prior to signing with the Scott Coker-led promotion in 2020. Com 11 da sua 13 vitórias na carreira por nocaute, incluindo quatro da variedade da primeira rodada, “Soldier of God” possesses the type of knockout power that can force any opponent into submission. Três vezes campeão de luta livre da Copa do Mundo, pentacampeão Pan-Americano de Luta Livre Estilo Livre, e 2000 Olympics Freestling Wrestling Silver Medalist, o cubano Romero tem mostrado continuamente seus talentos de elite no mais alto nível de competição. O único troféu que falta para um legado quase perfeito é um título mundial BELLATOR.

Making his tenth appearance for BELLATOR MMA, Dutch superstar Melvin “No Mercy” Manhoef has put together an impressive resume throughout his illustrious career in multiple combat sports disciplines that has seen him finish 29 da sua 32 MMA victims via knockout, Incluindo 26 in the first round and eight in the opening minute of action. A native of Amsterdam, Holanda, the ageless wonder and No. 10-ranked BELLATOR light heavyweight will now look to add to a trio of impressive knockouts that he’s collected since joining the promotion back in 2014.

BELLATOR MMA SET FOR RETURN TO PARIS ON FRIDAY, MAIO 6 WITH MASSIVE HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BOUT

Description automatically generated with low confidence — **UNDISPUTED CHAMP RYAN BADER WILL DEFEND TITLE IN REMATCH AGAINST FRENCH MMA LEGEND CHEICK KONGO DURING MAIN EVENT AT ACCOR ARENA**

**PARIS, FRANCE –** Fresh off unifying the BELLATOR MMA Heavyweight Championship, **Ryan Bader** (29-7, 1 NC) will defend his crown in enemy territory against hometown favorite and No. 2-ranked heavyweight **Cheick Kongo** (31-11-2, 1 NC) na sexta-feira, Maio 6. Paris’ Accor Arena is set to play host to the world title fight, which will headline the *BELLATOR PARIS: Bader vs. Kongo* evento.

Os ingressos para *BELLATOR PARIS: Bader vs. Kongo 2* já estão à venda em accorarena.com e bellator.fr.

Broadcast details and additional fights, including a plethora of French talent, are set to be announced in the coming weeks. Follow Bellator France on Instagram @BellatorFrance and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/BellatorFrance/.

With mixed martial arts becoming legalized in France in 2020, BELLATOR became the first promotion to hold a major MMA event with *Bellator 248* in October of that year. The success of that historic card propelled BELLATOR to make a return to “The City of Lights.”

“Bringing BELLATOR to France in 2020 was one of the highlights of my career, and I knew that it was the start of a long run of big events in Paris,” BELLATOR President Scott Coker said. “Here we are ready for our second trip to France and this time we are bringing a heavyweight world title rematch featuring arguably the most recognizable French mixed martial artist in our sports history. It’s personally important to me to help grow the sport in France and give these athletes a chance to perform on a large stage.”

The main event is a rematch from *Bellator 226* em 2019 that ended in a controversial no-contest following a disputed eye poke, creating heightened tension between the two fight camps that will surely boil over on May 6.

Successfully returning to the 265-pound division following an impressive run in the BELLATOR Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix, **Ryan Bader** (29-7) is fresh off a dominant BELLATOR MMA World Heavyweight Title defense over interim champion **Valentin Moldavsky** in front of a partisan Phoenix crowd on Jan. 29. A former two-division champion, Bader has defeated nine of his last 12 opponents at both heavyweight and light heavyweight. Lutando contra Chandler, Ariz., the former two-time NCAA Division I All-American wrestler from Arizona State University opened his professional career by winning season eight of “The Ultimate Fighter.” Never one to shy away from an opponent, Bader has had nothing but high-profile bouts since signing with BELLATOR MMA in 2017, defeating Fedor Emelianenko, King Mo, Matt Mitrione, Linton Vassell, Lyoto Machida, and Phil Davis. In his initial 265-pound title defense against Kongo, Bader controlled the action before referee Mike Beltran stopped the contest due to an accidental poke to Kongo’s left eye at 3:52 da rodada de abertura.

Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat at *BELLATOR MMA 265*, longtime BELLATOR veteran **Cheick Kongo** (31-11-2, 1 NC) was on the verge of being stopped by Sergei Kharitonov in the initial stanza during his last outing on Aug. 20, 2021. After hitting the canvas and becoming badly hurt, the exhausted Parisian rallied to secure a tap out via rear-naked choke with one second remaining in round two. Ten months prior to the dramatic triumph, the former UFC standout headlined the first major MMA event in his native France as he took on **Tim Johnson** in a rematch on Oct. 10, 2020. Since signing with the Scott Coker-led company in late August 2013, the promotional mainstay, who currently sports a 13-3 promotional record with one no contest, holds the records for most fights (17) e ganha (12) na história dos pesos pesados da BELLATOR. Just three years shy of 50, Kongo has proven that age is just a number as he continues to challenge the best that BELLATOR MMA has to offer.

O card também confirmou que os pesos-penas superiores não. 3 **Adam Borics** (17-1) e n. 4 **Jay-Jay Wilson** (8-0) se reunirão pelo direito de enfrentar o vencedor da final do Grande Prêmio Mundial dos Pesos Pena BELLATOR entre **Patrick "Pitbull"** (32-4) e **AJ McKee** (17-0), que acontece no sábado, Julho 31.

Os ingressos para o evento começam a ser vendidos nesta quinta-feira em 10 a.m. CT e estão disponíveis no Sanford Pentagon Box Office & Ticketmaster.

A parte preliminar de *BELLATOR MMA 265: Kongo vs. Kharitonov* atualmente apresenta uma luta de peso mosca com a classificação No.5 **Alejandra Lara** (9-4) contra **DeAnna Bennett** (10-7-1) e começará em 6:00 p.m. E / 3:00 p.m. PT e transmissão ao vivo no canal BELLATOR MMA no YouTube, Canal SHOWTIME Sports no YouTube e Pluto TV. Lutas preliminares adicionais serão anunciadas em um futuro próximo.

Detendo um impressionante recorde de MMA de 30-11-2, 1 NC, Não. 3-O classificado Cheick Kongo retorna à ação pela primeira vez desde que foi a atração principal do primeiro grande evento de MMA em sua França natal em outubro passado. O ex-kickboxer continua sendo uma força a ser reconhecida e detém recordes de mais lutas (16) e ganha (12) na história dos pesos pesados da BELLATOR. Com vitórias de alto nível sobre **Vitaly Minakov**, Mirko Cro Cop, Antoni Hardonk, e Matt Mitrione, o parisiense está ansioso para aumentar seus recordes promocionais atuais, definir novos, e ganhar sua chance de ouro BELLATOR.

O homem apelidado de “O Pára-quedista,”Kharitonov é dono de um currículo igualmente notável no MMA, com as vitórias russas marcando vitórias contra alguns dos nomes mais importantes do esporte, como Fabricio Werdum, Andrei Arlovski, Pedro Rizzo, Murilo “Ninja” Rua, Matt Mitrione, e Alistair Overeem. Agora, fresco de duas vitórias em campeonatos no circuito regional, Kharitonov retorna à jaula da BELLATOR com a intenção de subir no ranking dos pesos pesados e se afirmar como candidato ao título da BELLATOR.

Invicto em suas primeiras oito lutas como profissional, Wilson da Nova Zelândia venceu em grande estilo, acumulando seis finalizações nessas oito vitórias. Após uma vitória por decisão dividida contra Tywan Claxton, Wilson marcou um nocaute violento sobre Sergio DeBari, em seguida, seguiu-se aquela vitória com uma paralisação igualmente violenta com o punho giratório sobre Pedro Carvalho, da SBG, em abril. O lutador Kiwi tentará garantir uma vitória de alto risco sobre o Borics com uma chance pelo título mundial aguardando o vencedor.

The second Bellator woman’s featherweight champion in the company’s history, Cris “Cyborg” is coming off of a dominant performance over Julia Budd in January to win the 145-pound world title. Already an MMA legend at 35-years-old, “Cyborg” will be looking to further her legacy as the greatest woman’s mixed martial artist of all-time when she meets Arlene Blencowe on Oct. 15. After winning the Bellator belt in her 12th career title fight, “Cyborg” made history by becoming a world champion in her fourth major promotion, previously holding belts in both the UFC and Strikeforce. Com um histórico profissional de 22-2, 1 NC, Incluindo 18 wins by way of finish, the Brazilian-born fighter holds victories over tough competition such as Budd, Holly Holm, Felicia Spencer and Gina Carano.

With wins in six of her last seven fights, including five knockouts, “Angerfist” has put herself in position to challenge for the women’s featherweight title.

***Tickets on sale Tuesday, Sete. 15!***

OS ANJOS - France has approved the practice of mixed martial arts and has placed the sport under the supervision of the French Boxing Federation (FFB). With these recent government approvals, Bellator is pleased to announce that it will become the first promotion to hold a major MMA event in France with a monumental show on Saturday, Outubro 10, 2020 at Accor Arena in Paris. Bellator Paris caracterizará 13 MMA bouts and three boxing matchups.

Among the athletes competing atBellator Paris, 10 French fighters will appear on the card, including the renownedCheick Kongo (30-10-2, 1 NC), who will face off againstTim Johnson (14-6) in a heavyweight clash. Adicionalmente, an exciting welterweight bout betweenMichael “Venom” Página (17-1), better known to fans as “MVP,” and the debuting undefeatedRoss Houston (8-0,1 NC) is also booked for the event.

A limited number of fans will be allowed in attendance for this historic event. Tickets will be available beginning at 10 a.m. CEST on Tuesday, Setembro 15 emaccorarena.com ebellator.fr.

Following the governmental decree, the French Boxing Federation is responsible for the implementation of MMA in France. “If I made the choice to initiate a delegation procedure for MMA, it was for its recognition; it is to liberate, supervise and develop its practice,” indicates the Minister of Sports, Roxana Maracineanu. This is a turning point in the history of French sport, as MMA is a discipline that is enjoying growing success, proven by these events capable of bringing together thousands of people and attracting millions of spectators.

“This is a monumental moment in the history of the sport, as well as our organization, and I am honored that Bellator will promote the very first MMA event in France by a major promotion,”Disse o Presidente Bellator Scott Coker. “Many people have worked tirelessly to bring this to fruition, and it would not have been possible without the support of the Minister of Sports, Roxana Maracineanu, as well as the French Kickboxing Federation sanctioning body. I would also like to thank Accor Arena, who have been an incredible venue partner, and I cannot wait for the French fans to be in attendance and join us live for what will be an unforgettable night of action in Paris on Oct 10.”

Detendo um impressionante recorde de MMA de 30-10-2, 1 NC, France’s Cheick Kongo returns to action following a title fight against heavyweight champion Ryan Bader last September. The former kickboxer remains unbeaten since 2015 and will enter the Bellator cage on home soil for a rematch against a familiar opponent in heavyweight contender, Tim Johnson. With the most fights (15) e ganha (12) in Bellator heavyweight history, as well as victories over Vitaly Minakov, Mirko Cro Cop, Antoni Hardonk and Matt Mitrione, the Parisian is planning for a successful homecoming on Oct. 10.

On the heels of a dominant TKO victory over veteran Matt Mitrione atBellator 243 em agosto, Tim Johnson is set to compete for the third time in 2020 seeking revenge in a rematch from 2018 against Cheick Kongo. Now training out of Las Vegas, Johnson has quickly earned his place near the top of the Bellator heavyweight division with his recent wins, including a viral knockout over top prospect Tyrell Fortune in February. Boasting a career record of 14-6, com 11 coming by way of finish, the Minnesota-born military veteran looks to carry his momentum into a fight that has future world title implications.

Currently riding a three-fight win streak, Michael Page "Venom", better known to fans as “MVP,” returns with the intention of spoiling the debut of European welterweight prospect, Ross Houston. Holding a career record of 17-1, com 14 wins coming by way of stoppage, the pride of London Shootfighters looks to remind people why he is one of the most exciting strikers in all of MMA. In addition to his MMA accolades, Page is a 10-time kickboxing world champion and also undefeated as a professional boxer.

After signing with Bellator in February, Scotland’s Ross Houston will make his promotional debut against one of Bellator’s biggest stars in Michael Page. “The Hitman” plans on keeping his 8-0, 1 NC undefeated record intact and moving one step closer to Bellator gold in the toughest test of his career to date. With three submission victories to his name, Houston’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills make him a viable threat if the fight goes to the ground against one of Bellator’s most feared strikers.
