Interview: Bellator 145's Bobby Lashley ready for James Thompson ... and Fedor Emelianenko

It has been nearly one year in the making, but come Nov. 6, 2015, Bobby Lashley will finally get his long-awaited chance to avenge a loss to James Thompson. He's even looking to pick a fight on New Year's Eve, too.

Bellator 145: "Vengeance" takes place in less than one week (Fri., Nov. 6, 2015) inside Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri. The five-bout main card set for Spike TV includes two world title fights and three different grudge matches.

One of those big bouts (literally) is Bobby Lashley vs. James Thompson. The two Heavyweight veterans initially clashed under the Super Fight League banner in India.
