At Bellator 172 back in Feb. 18, Patricky Freire faced veteran fighter and former UFC lightweight contender Josh Thomson in the main event of the card. That night, the Brazilian put away Thomson with a second-round knockout, thus improving his professional MMA record to 17-8.
Now, seven months later, Freire is scheduled to take on former UFC lightweight champion Ben Henderson in the main event of Bellator 183. This card is set to take place on Saturday at the the SAP Center in San Jose, Calif.
