Following its Tito Ortiz – Chael Sonnen led card earlier this month, Bellator has another big card right around the corner, as Fedor Emelianenko is returning to the U.S. to face Matt Mitrione.

The Russian legend hasn’t fought over here in North America since 2011, when he was stopped by Dan Henderson. Since then, Fedor’s fought in Russia and Japan.

Emelianenko’s scrap with Mitrione will headline Bellator 172, and it will go down in San Jose.

Recently Bellator released the video below, which features commentator / analyst Jimmy Smith breaking down the foundations of “The Last Emperor”.
