The American organization MMA Bellator anchors in Atlantic City, New Jersey, this Saturday, with two title disputes.
For the heavyweight GP, Brazilian Thiago Big Monster comes from four victories in a row and faces the dangerous Eric Prindle, friend of the bodybuilder Lou Ferrigno (TV’s Hulk) who has seven in a row. Eric comes from a fast knockout over Ron Sparks in the GP’s semifinals (see below).
In the bantamweight GP, Eduardo Dantas, one of the great revelations of MMA in Brazil, faces the Cuban Alexis Vila.
In the other fights, the Jiu-Jitsu black belt Kurt Pellegrino, former UFC, is the rival of Patricky Pitbull, a promise of a great fight. Also a former employee of Dana White, the fighter Phillipe Naver fights against Marcin Held.
