On Friday, May 25, Bellator MMA will host its 200th event from the SSE Arena in London, England.
In the night’s main event, the promotion’s middleweight champion, Rafael Carvalho, clashes with UFC veteran and former Strikeforce titleholder Gegard Mousasi. Carvalho will look to make his fourth straight title defense, having most recently defeated Alessio Sakara in December. Mousasi, meanwhile, made his promotional debut in October and defeated former champion Alexander Shlemenko by decision.
The card also features striking specialist Michael Page, who faces David Rickels, and former light heavyweight champion Phil Davis, who takes on two-time title challenger Linton Vassell.
The night’s preliminary card streams live on the promotion’s website and mobile app beginning at 12:30 p.m. ET. The main card airs via tape-delay at 9 p.m. ET on the Paramount Network.
