Bellator 155: "Carvalho vs. Manhoef" takes place TONIGHT (Fri., May 20, 2016) from inside CenturyLink Arena in Boise, Idaho, featuring a Middleweight title match between champion Rafael Carvalho and the ferocious, hard-hitting Melvin Manhoef.
Manhoef rocketed into title contention with a sterling first round knockout of Hisaki Kato at Bellator 146 in Nov. 2015. Just one month earlier, Carvalho finished off Brandon Halsey via liver kick to capture the vacant title belt.
In addition, two earlier fights on the Spike TV-televised card could determine future contenders in their respective weight classes. Pat Curran and Georgi Karakhanyan clash in the co-main event, while Marloes Coenen and Alexis Dufresne will have a key women's fight also in the Featherweight division.
