Veteran Bellator featherweight Emmanuel Sanchez will get his chance to vie for the division’s crown when he takes on champ Patricio Freire this fall.
The featherweight title fight will headline Bellator’s third event in Israel on Nov. 15, a person close to Sanchez and a Bellator official today confirmed to MMAjunkie. The people requested anonymity because the booking has not yet been made official.
The Nov. 15 event will take place in Tel Aviv at Menora Mivtachim Arena, which previously hosted two successful events for the Viacom-owned promotion. The event has yet to be officially named, but main card fights will air on Paramount following prelims on MMAjunkie.
