Entering the final fight on his Bellator MMA contract, Lorenz Larkin faces an opponent who seems to suit him perfectly.
The 38-year-old Californian will return to the cage after a one-off appearance in the Professional Fighters League when he takes on Levan Chokheli in a Bellator Champions Series 4 welterweight title eliminator on Saturday at Pechanga Arena in San Diego. As he grows with age and continues to improve his skills, Larkin admits he got into the sport because of the authenticity involved with being a martial artist—an authenticity he believes MMA now lacks in a lot of ways.
