A pair of notable match-ups have been set to headline a Bellator card this fall.
Former UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson will be taking on Patricky Freire in an 155-pound contest in the main event of Bellator 183. The news was announced on Saturday during the broadcast of Bellator 180.
Henderson will be looking to bounce back from a split-decision loss suffered in his title fight with current lightweight champ Michael Chandler. Henderson is 1-2 since joining the Bellator roster back in 2016. Meanwhile, Freire is coming off a technical knockout win over MMA veteran Josh Thomson back in February at Bellator 172.
