Lorenz Larkin, Patrick Mix among five to compete in Bellator vs. RIZIN fights in December

Bellator MMA and RIZIN will produce a pair of year-end cards on Dec. 29 and Dec. 31 that will also include several crossover fights between the two promotions.

First up will be Bellator: Japan with Fedor Emelianenko vs. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson already announced as the main event.

That card will also feature top-ranked welterweight contender Lorenz Larkin back in action as he takes on RIZIN veteran Keita Nakamura.

Larkin is coming off a win over Andrey Koreschkov in his last outing with a potential title shot waiting in the wings against new champion Douglas Lima.
