Bellator Adds Second Title Fight To February CBS Event

Bellator MMA is bringing the big guns for the February CBS event.

Along with Fedor Emelianenko challenging Ryan Bader, Johnny Eblen will put his middleweight belt on the line.

In the main event on February 4 from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, Bader defends vs. Fedor in a rematch. The event airs live on CBS and streams on Paramount+.

Eblen will meet Anatoly Tokov, a member of Team Fedor, in the co-main event. Vadim Nemkov was to defend his light heavyweight title vs. Yoel Romero, but that bout is no longer scheduled.
