MMA Combat - Bellator 47 Heads to Casino Rama, Ontario, Canada
Tuesday, June 7, 2011, Officials from Casino Rama in Orillia, Ontario, Canada, announced today that the venue will host Bellator 47 - Warren vs. Freire, this summer, July 23, which will mark the promotion's first event outside of U.S. territory.
The card will feature the semifinal match-ups for Bellator's eight-man "Summer Series" Featherweight Tournament, and will also be headlined by 145lbs champion Joe Warren (7-1-0) when he takes on dangerous Team Nogueira representative Patricio Freire (17-1-0) in a rematch of their Season Two Featherweight Tournament Final. Warren represents the only loss on "Pitbull's" record, and the talented Brazilian earned his rematch with a victory last month in the Season Four 145lbs Tournament Final.
Joe Warren last competed in April of this year, defeating Marcos Galvao by unanimous decision in his first title defense; the Team Quest wrestling ace utilizes his relentless pace and top control style to stifle and outlast opponents as five of his seven career victories have come by way of decision.
Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney had the following to say regarding the promotion's first Canadian show: "Our fans have been asking us to come to Canada since our very first season... Casino Rama is an unbelievable venue and should make for a magical night of fights at Bellator 47."
