Bellator Betting Online: Henderson vs. Pitbull is yet another of the great Bellator events on the docket for MMA betting fans. The event will take place on Friday, August 26 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, and all of the action can be seen live on Spike TV.
Bellator 160 Fight Card
Lightweight: Benson Henderson vs. Patricio Freire
Featherweight: Georgi Karakhanyan vs. Bubba Jenkins
Featherweight: A.J. McKee vs. Henry Corrales
Lightweight: Saad Awad vs. Derek Anderson
The showcase fight of the night at Bellator 160 will pit Benson Henderson up against Patricio "Pitbull" Freire in the lightweight division. These two men are both former champions in their own right. Henderson, who is now 32 years old, was once a champion in UFC, while Freire held the Bellator featherweight title for three fights.
Freire is actually coming up in weight class for this fight, and that could end up playing a role for a man who hasn't fought in a lightweight fight in his career. Of course, Henderson is also fighting against his weight, as he has been fighting in the welterweight division for his last few fights.
Freire, who is 25-3 is coming off of a win over Henry Corrales at Bellator 153. Henderson, who is 23-6 in his professional career, lost his first fight in this promotion at Bellator 153. As a part of his agreement to come to Bellator, Henderson had a shot to fight for the welterweight title right away, but he was beaten by Andrey Koreshkov.
Featherweights will have their say in Bellator 160 as well. Georgi Karakhanyan is going to fight against Bubba Jenkins in what could be construed as the second main event of this card, while A.J. McKee will look to continue the skid which the aforementioned Corrales is on. Saad Awad will duke it out with Derek Anderson in the lightweight division as well.
Highly touted prospect, Kevin Ferguson Jr. is also expected to be on the card at Bellator 160, though his opponent had not been announced yet as of the publication of this article.
