對抗萊頓, 南荷蘭省, 荷蘭, Gegard Mousasi will be looking to follow-up his decisive TKO victory over 羅裡·麥克唐納 在 Bellator 206 in what will be his second title defense since becoming champion earlier this year. “The Dreamcatcher” is currently in the midst of an impressive eight-fight win streak that dates back to 2016. The 33-year-old judo black belt has dominated the stacked middleweight class since signing with Bellator in 2017, collecting three victories in as many bouts, including a pair of knockouts against 拉斐爾·卡瓦略 and MacDonald in both of his world title fights. The former Strikeforce champion, who debuted in impressive fashion against 亞歷山大Shlemenko, now looks to extend his current win streak and defend the middleweight belt for the second time in just five months.
小拉斐爾·洛瓦托（Rafael Lovato）. will be making his sixth appearance for Bellator, a bout where not only will the 35-year-old’s unblemished mark of 9-0 be on the line, but also a world championship belt. Since signing with the Viacom-owned promotion in 2017, the Oklahoma City-based fighter has tallied five wins and four finishes, three of which came in the opening round, including his most recent submission win over top middleweight contender 約翰·索爾特 在 Bellator 205. A fourth-degree black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, the former Legacy FC middleweight champ will finally have his shot at Bellator gold when he takes on current 185-pound champion Mousasi in the co-main event of Bellator’s return to Los Angeles on Jan. 26.
