Bellator 80 goes down this Friday, in Hollywood, Florida, and Jiu-Jitsu looks to be well represented there.
A competitor with participations in the ADCC and holder of Gi-Jiu-Jitsu titles, Wagnney Fabiano is on the card for the show as a semifinalist in the featherweight GP—the heavyweight GP also features at the event.
Wagnney will be vying for a spot in the final, having mounted and caught the arm of Armenia’s Akop Stepanyan in his last match. Today he will be taking on Rad Martinez at a later date.
Now Vinícius Spartan, who also used an armbar to put him through to the next phase, will be taking on the dangerous Alexander Volkov, who beat former Strikeforce fighter Brett Rogers.
In the main event of the evening, Joe Warren, former champion of the featherweight division, will be dropping to bantamweight to square off with Owen Evinger, while Thai boxing world champion Cosmo Alexandre will take on Josh Quayhagen.
