Bellator 147: "Thomson vs. Villaseca" takes place TONIGHT (Fri., Dec. 4, 2015) from inside Event Center Arena in San Jose, Calif., featuring a Lightweight main event with popular local favorite Josh Thomson facing tough competition in Pablo Villaseca.
Bellator MMA returns to San Jose following its epic "Dynamite 1" event in September, which coincidentally marked the promotional debut for Thomson. This time he moves up from a mid-card match with Mike Bronzoulis to the main event, but the 21-8 (1 NC) "Punk" can't afford to take the young and hungry Villaseca (10-1) lightly.
Other key match ups for the televised portion on Spike TV include a Featherweight contender battle between Daniel Weichel and Georgi Karakhanyan, a Lightweight rematch between Patricky Freire and Derek Anderson, and a Light Heavyweight slugfest between Virgil Zwicker and Brian Rogers.
