Co-main Event Booked for Bellator 266
The co-main event for Bellator 266 will be a welterweight showdown as Newman Gracie looks to maintain his spot in the rankings when he faces streaking Mark Lemminger.
Gracie is number four in Bellator’s 170 lb. rankings. As is the family tendency Neiman had collected his last six win by submission. At Bellator 213 Gracie handed Ed Ruth his first loss by rear naked choke. And his last win was a second round heel hook of Jon Fitch. Lemminger comes into the fight after halting a two-fight skid, stopping Demarques Jackson with punches in the second round at Bellator 260.
Bellator 266 is set for September 18th at the SAP Center in San Jose, California. Prelims available on YouTube & main card on Showtime.
