Like-minded pursuits have brought them together.
Bellator MMA featherweight contenders Adam Borics and Mads Burnell will toe the line against one another in the Bellator 276 headliner on March 12 at The Family Arena in St. Louis. The winner could conceivably emerge as the promotion’s next No. 1 contender at 145 pounds. Borics has rattled off three consecutive victories. The Sanford MMA rep last fought at Bellator 256, where he took a unanimous decision from Jeremy Kennedy on April 9. Burnell, meanwhile, enters the cage with the wind of a seven-fight winning streak in his sails.
