Will Fleury: Competing at Bellator 224 is ‘a risk’ with Dublin event looming

SBG Ireland’s Will Fleury would rather roll the dice against Antonio Jones at Bellator 224 than sit out until Bellator returns to Dublin in late September.

The Tipperary native is riding high on the back of a second-round submission over Shaun Taylor at the promotion’s last Dublin event in February and admitted that Friday’s Thackerville card is a risk to a certain extent. However, the Irish middleweight insisted that he will have no regrets if he does leave his U.S. debut with an injury that rules him out of bout on home soil in two months time.
