Jake Hager has ‘no regrets’ from previous no-contest, predicts ‘big smile on my face’ at Bellator 250

Jake Hager goes from the squared circle to the Bellator cage for the fourth time in his career on Thursday night.

The former WWE and current AEW star returns to action for the first time in over one year when he meets fellow unbeaten heavyweight Brandon Calton in the featured preliminary bout of Bellator 250. The event takes place at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., and is headlined by a matchup for the vacant middleweight title between Gegard Mousasi and current 170-pound champion Douglas Lima.

After picking up back-to-back first-round submission wins to kick off his MMA career, Hager took on Anthony Garrett at Bellator 231.
