Bellator 157: Satoshi Ishii can thank Gegard Mousasi and Rico Verhoeven for his improved striking

Bellator 157 "Dynamite 2" comes to Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Mo., on Fri., June 24, 2016. The scheduled main event for the card starting at 8 p.m. ET is a 215-pound catchweight fight between Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Satoshi Ishii.

Jackson has a four fight win streak going which includes his recent (and brief) return to the Zuffa fold for UFC 186 in Montreal. Although it seemed unlikely at the time, Bellator and Jackson mended fences leading to his eventual return.

Ishii won't be a cakewalk for Jackson's re-debut with the promotion.
