Oklahoma Gets Bellator 166, Bellator 167 on Back-to-Back Days in December

Bellator MMA on Monday unveiled plans to hold events on back-to-back days at the Winstar World Casino in Thackerville, Oklahoma.

Eduardo Dantas will defend his bantamweight championship in a rematch against Joe Warren in the Bellator 166 main event on Dec. 2. Dantas has rattled off two straight wins since losing a unanimous decision to Warren in October 2014. The 27-year-old Nova Uniao standout last appeared at Bellator 156 on June 17, when he captured the 135-pound title with a lopsided five-round unanimous decision over former teammate Marcos Galvao.
