Bellator 168: "Sakara vs. Beltran" takes place at Mandela Forum in Florence, Italy, this Saturday night (Dec. 10, 2016). Five bouts promise some local favorites and some up-and-coming stars of the multiple divisions, including a former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) veteran who won his promotional debut a few hours away in Torino.
Let's break it down:
205 lbs.: Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC) vs. Joey Beltran (17-13, 1 NC)
After an impressive showing against a "Professional Predator" in April, Alessio Sakara looks to repeat that feat in his second Bellator fight in Italy.
