Bellator will partner with one of the top international promotions this December for Bellator 169.
Along with putting “King Mo” Lawal vs. Satoshi Ishii, BAMMA will be holding a card alongside the action set for the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland.
Bellator 169 takes place October 14 with Lawal vs. Ishii in the main event on Spike. The BAMMA 27 card will be headlined by Tom Duquesnoy defending his bantamweight belt vs. Alan Philpott.
“When thinking of a country that respects, understands and yearns for quality mixed martial arts action, Ireland immediately comes to mind,” Bellator MMA President Scott Coker said. “I’m very excited for this event, with ‘King Mo’ versus Ishii in the main event, and I cannot wait to be inside the 3Arena when ‘The Strabanimal,’ James Gallagher takes center stage, it’s going to be a madhouse. With that being said, I’m pleased to be bringing this action to Dublin alongside a promotion like BAMMA and David Green, who has been a good friend for years.”
