PARIZ, FRANCE – Two iconic mixed martial artists with an undeniable track record of thrilling performances will square up as Yoel romero (13-6) poprima Melvin Manhoef (32-15-1, 2 NC) in the co-main event of BELLATOR MMA’s return to Paris’ Accor Arena on Friday, Svibanj 6. BELLATOR PARIS: Bader vs. Kongo 2 will be televised live in America on SHOWTIME at 10 poslije podne. CEST/4 p.m. I.

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, SHOWTIME Sports YouTube channel and Pluto TV beginning at 6:30 poslije podne. CEST/12:30 poslije podne. I.
Tickets for the fight are on sale now at accorarena.com a bellator.fr. Follow Bellator France on Instagram @BellatorFrance and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/BellatorFrance/

Borba iz Miamija, Florida, Romero will be making his second BELLATOR appearance on May 6 u Parizu. Following a seven-year stint under the direction of the 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. S 11 njegov 13 pobjede u karijeri dolaze nokautom, uključujući četiri vrste prvog kruga, “Soldier of God” possesses the type of knockout power that can force any opponent into submission. A three-time World Cup Freestyle Wrestling Champion, five-time Pan-American Freestyle Wrestling Champion, a 2000 Olympics Freestyle Wrestling Silver Medalist, the Cuban-born Romero has continuously showcased his elite talents at the highest level of competition. The only missing trophy to a near-flawless legacy is a BELLATOR world title.

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 njegov 32 MMA victims via knockout, uključujući 26 u prvom kolu i osam u uvodnoj minuti akcije. Rodom iz Amsterdama, Holandija, 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.

MASIVNI DOGAĐAJI ZRAK UŽIVO NA CBS SPORTSKOJ MREŽI ČETVRTAK, Studeni. 5

ANĐELI - Bellator MMA se u četvrtak vratio u udarne termine, Studeni. 5 s karticom naslovljenom uzbudljivom bitkom koja prikazuje jednu od najnovijih akvizicija slobodnih agenata u promociji u Corey Anderson (13-5), koji će svoj dugo očekivani Bellator debitirati protiv nizozemske legende borbenog sporta Melvin Manhoef (32-14-1, 2 NC) u naslaganom poluteškoj kategoriji. Akcija proizlazi iz Mohegan Sun Arene u Uncasvilleu, Konektikat, gdje je Bellator održao sve svoje domaće emisije od povratka promocije na događaje uživo.

Legendarni nizozemski borac Melvin Manhoef jedan je od najstrašnijih i najnasilnijih štrajkajućih stručnjaka u svim borbenim sportovima. S 29 njegov 32 pobjede u karijeri dolaze nokautom, “No Mercy” se može pohvaliti jednim od najviših postotaka postotaka bilo kojeg MMA borca ​​s najmanje 15 pobjede. Manhoef je skupio pobjede nad ikonskim imenima u ovom sportu, uključujući Mark Hunt i Kazushi Sakuraba, tijekom slavne karijere koja datira od 1995, kad je zaradio prvu od mnogih pobjeda u nokautu 18 godine. Nakon slaganja dvije uzastopne pobjede, including a TKO over Yannick Fortune u svom posljednjem izlasku, Manhoef izgleda pokvariti toliko hvaljeni Bellatorov debi Andersona u glavnom događaju Bellator 251.

Rockford, Corey Anderson iz Illinoisa pridružio se Bellatorovoj teškoj kategoriji prošlog kolovoza nakon što je odlučio napustiti UFC. Pobjednik Ultimate Fighter sezona 19 bio je četvrti u UFC-ovoj diviziji od 205 kilograma u trenutku njegovog odlaska, pobijedivši vrhunske protivnike, uključujući aktualnog prvaka Jana Blachowicza, Johnny Walker, Ilir Latifi i Glover Teixeira. Prije nego što je brusio MMA pod svjetski poznatim BJJ asom Ricardom Almeidom, 31-godišnjak je postao dvostruki sveamerički hrvač NCAA i stekao diplomu iz poslovne administracije na Sveučilištu Wisconsin-Whitewater. "Prekovremeni rad" činit će se usponom na vrh prepune Bellatorove poluteške kategorije koja uključuje prvaka Vadim Nemkov, Phil Davis, Ryan Bader, Lyoto Machida, pridošlica Christian Edwards i bivši prvak LFA Alex Polizzi.

I’m used to Muay-Thai, which I’ve been practicing my whole life. I’ve done a few fights without elbows even though it’s still Muay-Thai so it’s a bit different from what I just did tonight. I just came from an MMA fight so I had to switch up my whole camp but this is what I want to do and this is the opportunity that Bellator has provided for me, so I’m going to take it and stay as busy as possible,” Bolanos said. “I want to thank Bellator, Scott Coker, my coach Kirian Fitzgibbons and my team at CSA Gym for helping me and giving me all the opportunities that I’ve been given in my career. I’m hoping to get another MMA fight in here soon and develop a rhythm there. I want to become the biggest star in both sports and I know that I’ve got the opportunity and the talent to do just that.”

SANTA MONICA, CALIF (Prosinca. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, I Ruth (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Emanuele Palombi (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place ovaj petak na "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Beltran," na Prosinca. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4PM ET/PT.

 

U samo 26 godina star, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Joey Davis (1-0), Tyrell Fortune (1-0), Jarod Trice (1-0) kao i Aron Pico a Romero Cotton – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, PA, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Kalifornija, where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Josh Koscheck a Chris Honeycutt, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on Studeni. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 u prvom krugu.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, uključujući John Salter (12-3), Yamauchi se (31-9) a Philipe Lins(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Denise Kielholtz (45-3) a Gloria Peritore (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Giorgio Petrosyan (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Jordan Watson (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Joe Schilling (19-9) protiv Victorio Lermano (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Luca Novello (22-4-2) s Karim Ghajji (96-13-1), a Kevin Ross(31-9) će zadovoljiti Alessio Arduini (26-14-2) u laganom borbi.
