Longtime pro MMA fighter and kickboxer Melvin Manhoef is headlining this week's Bellator 146 card against Hisaki Kato and sat down with Bloody Elbow to reflect on his career and talk about making one last title run.
Even I was a little shocked when I went to look over Melvin Manhoef's career and realized just how long and generally successful it has been. Starting way back in 1999, in the "free fight" days in Holland, Manhoef has racked up wins over Bob Schrijber, Evangelista Santos, Ian Freeman, Kazushi Sakuraba, Mark Hunt, and Kazuo Misaki, among many others.
