Bellator 224 title challenger Olga Rubin predicting a second-round knockout of Julia Budd

After a near three-week hiatus, Bellator MMA return on Friday night from WinStar World Casino in Thackerville, Oklahoma with a card that is flying under the radar but is filled with a number of intriguing matchups. There is interest from a European perspective as SBG Ireland products Kiefer Crosbie, Sinead Kavanagh, and Will Fleury all look to add to their promotional resumes. However, the fighter on the card with links to the continent in the bout of highest consequence is women’s featherweight title contender, Olga Rubin (6-0), as she looks to take the belt from the grasp of current champion, Julia Budd (12-2).
