On Saturday, October 12th, Bellator return to Italy for the seventh time as their expansion across Europe continues. The event is expected to be headlined by a light heavyweight bout between Alessio Sakara (20-13, 2NC) and Bellator newcomer, Canaan Grigsby (8-7), and marks the debut of the promotion in Milan. This will be the fourth time that Bellator have called upon Sakara to headline in his home country and they will be hoping that he can help draw a big crowd to the Allianz Cloud.
Since signing with Bellator in 2016, Sakara has competed exclusively in Italy and has gone 3-2 in the promotion.
