Bellator 193 takes place at Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, California on Friday (Jan. 26, 2017) at 9pm (ET) live on Paramount Network. UFC veteran Lorenz Larkin searches for his first Bellator victory when he battles Fernando Gonzalez.
Larkin (18-7) has lost three of his last five fights, most recently suffering a knockout loss to Paul Daley at Bellator 193. The 31-year-old looks for his first win since August 2016. Gonzalez (27-14) has won seven of his last eight fights, including a third-round submission victory over Brennan Ward at Bellator 182. The 34-year-old hasn’t been finished in a fight since Feb. 2014 and is coming off back-to-back wins.
In the co-main event, Saad Awad looks for his third win in a row when he faces JJ Ambrose. Awad (21-9) has won back-to-back fights after losing three of his last four fights prior to that. The “Assassin” is coming off a first-round knockout victory over Zach Freeman at Bellator 188 in November. Ambrose (29-7) returns to Bellator for the first time since Oct. 2013 and has competed overseas in his last seven fights. The 30-year-old has won five-fights in a row, including a unanimous decision victory over UFC veteran Ben Wall at Hex Fight Series 9 back in June 2016.
