During the second of two Bellator cards this weekend, we have a great one lined up at Bellator 228, going down in Inglewood, California. Headlining the event will be a Bellator Featherweight Championship bout between two-time Bellator Featherweight Champion and Bellator Lightweight Champion Patricio ‘Pitbull’ Freire and KOTC four-weight champion Juan Archuleta.
