One of the most decorated strikers in fighting history, Manhoef is returning for the first time in over a year. After losing two consecutive competitions, Manhoef has lost the victories against Kent Kauppinen and Yannick Bahati, whom he defeated in October 2019 at Bellator 230 via TKO in the second round. Of his 32 career wins, 29 have come to the US from distance.
Anderson makes his Bellator debut after winning four of his last five bouts in the UFC. In his last break in February he lost to Jan Blachowicz in the round of 16. During the summer, Anderson requested and eventually received his release from the organization. Bellator immediately reached out to Anderson and they reached a deal in August.
A win for Anderson puts him right in the middle of the action in a competitive light heavyweight division. If Manhoef wins, he’ll also get into the conversation.
