Derek Anderson vs. Adam Piccolotti announced for Bellator 189
“The Barbaric” is looking to close out 2017 with a bang.
Having missed out on an opportunity to fight Michael Page this past May after Page suffered a knee injury, Derek Anderson will get back in the cage when he fights Adam Piccolotti in a catchweight bout (160 pounds) at Bellator 189 on Dec. 1 at the WinStar World Casino in Thackerville, Okla.
Officials announced the matchup Thursday.
Anderson (14-3-1) saw a two-fight win streak snapped this past January when he dropped a unanimous decision to Derek Campos at Bellator 170. The 27-year-old has a 5-3 record in the Bellator cage which includes a pair of decision wins over Patricky “Pitbull” Freire.
