Rodolfo “Trator” Bellato vs Marcos Matos - Future FC 10
While his bid on the DWCS ended in him getting finished, 27 year old Rodolfo “Trator” Bellato (9-2) is probably on his way to a big organization soon. Such is the nature of 205 and Trator is an entertaining fighter who basically never goes to decision.
Trator will be fighting for the vacant LFA Light Heavyweight title this Saturday (May 27) in the co-main event of LFA 159. He’ll face off with Acácio dos Santos (15-5).
Matheus Nicolau (19-2-1) has made the best out of his return to the UFC. He’s won 4 straight to put himself into the top 5 in the division. While his counterstriking style hasn’t won over everyone, Nicolau has shown some undeniable skills. And when matched up with the right opponents, he’s been able to turn in banger performances.
Following the Schnell fight, I’m happy to see the UFC match him up with another hyper aggressive swarming type of fighter in Brandon Royval (14-6). Nicolau and Royval will face off this Saturday (April 15) as part of the prelims for UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Allen.
