Back on the winning track, Ed Ruth’s next assignment sees him welcoming Jason Jackson back to Bellator.
Ruth (7-1) meets Jackson (10-3) in a welterweight bout at Bellator 231 on Oct. 25 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. MMA Fighting confirmed the matchup with officials following an initial report by MMA Junkie.
A highly touted prospect who was a three-time national wrestling champion at Penn State, Ruth bounced back from his first-ever loss by finishing veteran Kiichi Kunimoto with strikes in the second round of their contest at Bellator 224 this past July.
