洛杉磯 - Bellator MMA is back in primetime on Thursday, 十一月. 5 with a card headlined by an exciting battle featuring one of the promotion’s newest free agent acquisitions in 科里·安德森 (13-5), who will make his highly anticipated Bellator debut against Dutch combat sports legend 梅爾文Manhoef (32-14-1, 2 NC) in the stacked light heavyweight division. The action emanates from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, 康涅狄格州, where Bellator has held all its domestic shows since the promotion’s return to live events.
CBS體育網 將播出 Bellator 251: Manhoef VS. 安德森 在全美國直播. 市場, 而初步比賽將在 CBSports.com 和 Bellator MMA 的 YouTube 頻道上播放. 其他比賽將在稍後公佈.
Legendary Dutch fighter Melvin Manhoef is one of the most feared and violent striking specialists in all of combat sports. 同 29 他 32 career victories coming by way of knockout, “No Mercy” boasts one of the highest knockout percentage rates of any MMA fighter with at least 15 勝利. Manhoef has collected victories over iconic names in the sport, including Mark Hunt and Kazushi Sakuraba, throughout an illustrious career dating back to 1995, when he earned the first of many knockout victories at only 18 years of old. After stacking together two consecutive victories, including a TKO over 雅尼克財富 in his last outing, Manhoef looks to spoil the much-hyped Bellator debut of Anderson in the main event of Bellator 251.
Rockford, Illinois’ Corey Anderson joined Bellator’s light heavyweight division this past August after opting to depart the UFC. The winner of 終極戰士 季節 19 was ranked fourth in the UFC’s 205-pound division at the time of his departure, having defeated top opponents, including current champion Jan Blachowicz, Johnny Walker, Ilir Latifi and Glover Teixeira. Prior to honing his MMA under world-renowned BJJ ace Ricardo Almeida, the 31-year-old became a two-time NCAA All-American wrestler and earned his degree in business administration from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. “Overtime” will look to ascend to the top of a crowded Bellator light heavyweight class that includes champion 瓦迪姆Nemkov, 菲爾·戴維斯, 瑞安貝德, 町田龍太, 新人 克里斯蒂安·愛德華茲 and former LFA champ 亞歷克斯·波利齊（Alex Polizzi）.
