Andrey Koreshkov vs. Lorenz Larkin headlines Bellator event on March 29

[TheEmperorRises]

Bellator is set to return to Temecula, Calif with a key welterweight bout.

On Thursday, the promotion announced that former champion Andrey Koreshkov will meet former title-challenger Lorenz Larkin in the headliner of a March 29 event at Pechanga Resort Casino. The show will air on Paramount and stream on DAZN.

Koreshkov (21-3 MMA, 12-3 BMMA) will look to get back on track after being bounced from the 170-pound grand prix in September at Bellator 206, where he lost by technical submission to Douglas Lima. Prior to that loss, Koreshkov had won back-to-back fights.

Larkin, meanwhile, is on the up-and-up following a rough start to his Bellator tenure. Larkin (20-7 MMA, 2-2 BMMA) has won back-to-back fights, most recently defeating Ion Pascu by unanimous-decision in October at Bellator 207, after kicking things off with two losses.

No other fights for the event have been announced at this time.

Larkin has to be pretty happy about this since he gets to sleep in his own bed the night before the fight. I'm pretty sure he lives in temecula.

@MMAHAWK is most certainly going to be there as well I'd imagine.

Have you ever watched a ONE card? They dropped the FC about 2 years ago.
If you can please give us an example of a main event you’d use to fill a 3,000 seat arena in Temecula CA

At least they won't have to sell many tickets to get paid.

Hopefully the fighters are compensated for not having as many tickets to sell
