Patricio Freire will finally get to compete in Israel on Nov. 15, as he puts his featherweight belt on the line in the main event of Bellator’s return to Tel Aviv, Israel, against Emmanuel Sanchez. Sources confirmed the booking after a report by MMA Junkie.
“Pitbull” (27-4) was originally slated to headline Bellator 188 in Israel last November, but was forced out o the card with an injury. Back to action with a decision win over Daniel Weichel in July, the Brazilian looks to extend his winning streak to three.
