Bellator 272 champion Sergio Pettis will defend his lease against former Bellator and RIZIN champion

This will be Pettis' first title defense after winning the Ballet 258 against Juan Archoletta. Tell your readers that while Horigochi had two prestigious 135-pound titles, he had to leave in 2019 due to injury. The injury and then the Code-19 epidemic gave Horiguchi plenty of time. It gave him plenty of time to recover his lost identity and return to action at RIZIN 26 at the end of 2020, taking a break from his career, where he avenged the defeat of his non-title fight with Kai Ascura. This will be his first fight with Blatter after Blatter won 222 titles at Madison Square Garden. Pats vs. Horigochi Pitts (21-5 MMA, 3-0 BMMA) won the first title of his career in May, defeating then-champion Juan Arculetta by a unanimous decision in the main contest of the Blatter 258. Ricky Bandeja, Alfred, Fateh Khashakian, and Tyson. Horiguchi (29-3 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) will be competing for the first time as a roster fighter on a multi-fight deal under the banner of this event. In June 2019, Horiguchi was credited by RIZIN with a one-sided fight against Darrion Caldwell - a contest Horiguchi won by a unanimous decision to become champion. He later relinquished the honor. information for Bellator 272 Fights. BELLATOR MMA 272: PETTIS VS.
