Bellator Heads To Hawaii With Double-Main Event Of Action

Bellator MMA will put the finishing touches on 2019 in the U.S. with a double-main event in Hawaii this Friday and Saturday.

Up first will be a special event for the troops with heavyweight Josh Barnett taking on Ronny Markes. The card will air on both Paramount Network an DAZN from the Neal S. Blaisdell Arena.

Bellator USO Salute to the Troops will also include Joey Davis, as he battles Chris Cisneros, and Tywan Claxton, as he takes on Braydon Akeo.

Following that up on Saturday will be Bellator 236 with Ilima-Lei Macfarlane defending her flyweight title against Kate Jackson. That card airs entirely on DAZN from the same arena.

Along with Macfarlane competing in her home state vs. Jackson, A.J. McKee and Derek Campos square off in the Bellator Featherweight Grand Prix.

Bellator still has one more event left in 2019 – kind of – as they help host a card in conjunction with Rizin in Japan on New Year’s Eve. Fedor Emelianenko headlines the event against former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.

But first, we head to the islands of Hawaii this weekend.
