This event will mark the rising promotion&#8217;s second effort on pay-per-view.<\/p>\n<p>To commemorate this debut in New York City and return to pay-per-view, Bellator has stacked the Bellator NYC lineup with big names. The pay-per-view card will begin with a lightweight clash between Aaron Pico and Zach Freeman. Next up will be a welterweight title fight between champ Douglas Lima and challenger Lorenz Larkin \u2013 a recent UFC outcast. Then, we&#8217;ll see a lightweight title fight between champ Michael Chandler and unheralded challenger Brent Primus. And finally, the card will be topped by <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/fedor-emelianenko\/fedor-emelianenko-vs-matt-mitrione-set-co-headliner-bellator-180\/\">a heavyweight fight <\/a>between UFC veteran Matt Mitrione and MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko, and a light heavyweight scrap between legendary trash talker Chael Sonnen and Pride legend Wanderlei Silva.<\/p>\n<p>As this card draws ever closer, Bellator has released a short but awesome promo for it&#8217;s Matt Mitrione vs. Fedor Emelianenko main event. This video, which shines the spotlight on these two dangerous competitors, can be viewed at the top of this post.<\/p>\n<p>This Fedor vs. Mitrione battle was originally expected to occur back in January. Unfortunately, this planned meeting was scrapped at the last minute when Mitrione was<a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/matt-mitrione\/matt-mitrione-responds-to-claims-that-he-was-scared-to-fight-fedor\/\"> forced out of the fight with a case of kidney stones<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Emelianenko was last seen in the cage almost a year ago, when he battled former UFC light heavyweight Fabio Maldonado to a controversial decision win. Prior to this fight, he made his anticipated return to the ring under the Rizin banner, trashing an outmatched Jaideep Singh to a first round stoppage.<\/p>\n<p>Mitrione, meanwhile, has gone 2-0 since joining the Bellator heavyweight roster. These wins have occurred against\u00a0Carl Seumanutafa and Oli Thompson.<\/p>\n<p>Who do you think wins this Fedor Emelianenko vs. Matt Mitrione fight at Bellator NYC?<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><i>This article first appeared on\u00a0<\/i><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>BJPenn.com<\/i><\/span><\/a><i>\u00a0on 5\/16\/2017.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 24, Bellator MMA will take over New York City&#8217;s hallowed Madison Square Garden with the aptly titled Bellator NYC card.
