Bellator MMA’s Jan. 26 tent-pole event just got a little bit bigger.
The California-based promotion announced on Monday that Gegard Mousasi will defend his middleweight crown against Rafael Lovato Jr. in the Bellator 214 co-feature. The card takes place at the Forum in Los Angeles and will see Fedor Emelianenko face Ryan Bader in the finals of the Bellator heavyweight grand prix in the evening’s headliner.
The main card will air on Paramount Network and DAZN at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT and also includes a featherweight tilt pitting Aaron Pico against Henry Corrales.
