Frans Mlambo will look to avenge SBG teammate James Gallagher’s loss to Ricky Bandejas when the former amateur world champion meets the American at Bellator Dublin at the 3 Arena on Feb. 22.
Bellator confirmed the preliminary bantamweight clash to MMA Fighting on Thursday.
The former CFFC champion got off to an emphatic start with Bellator when he handed Gallagher his first professional loss when he stopped the Irishman in the first round of their clash at Bellator 204. Despite the spectacular start, Bendejas then suffered two straight defeats when he bumped into surging contenders Juan Archuleta and Patchy Mix.
