Kevin Ferguson Jr. will make his professional mixed martial arts debut inside the Scott Coker-led Bellator MMA organization on Oct. 21, when he meets Rick Bing at Bellator 162 in Memphis, Tennessee. Bellator officials on Monday announced the booking, along with several others.
Ferguson is the 24-year-old son of the late “Kimbo Slice” -- a Miami street-fighter who rose to prominence through a series of YouTube videos and later competed in EliteXC, the Ultimate Fighting Championship and Bellator. He died in June at the age of 42.
