Bellator and RIZIN are advertised as adversaries for their upcoming Dec. 31 event. But are they really?
In a move rare among major MMA promotions, the two organizations have agreed to a co-promotion that will feature five head-to-head main card matchups featuring Bellator and RIZIN fighters competing against one another.
Champions from both organizations are on the marquee, including a headlining bout between Roberto de Souza and A.J. McKee, as well as a co-main event between Patricio Freire and Kleber Koike Erbst.
