Bellator MMA returns to Dublin with home favourite Peter Queally taking on Patricky 'Pitbull' Freire in a hotly anticipated rematch for the vacant lightweight title. The pair previously met earlier this year in a high-octane clash at Bellator 258 which was won by Queally via doctor鈥檚 stoppage second-round knockout. Fighting out of SBG Ireland, Queally will be looking to extend his winning streak to three fights having also earned a second-round TKO win over Ryan Scope at Bellator 227. Meanwhile his opponent on the night, 鈥淧itbull鈥� will look to keep the lightweight title in the family after his brother Patricio vacated the belt to focus on regaining his featherweight title from AJ McKee. The Brazilian veteran has won 23 of his 33 professional fights and has established himself as one of the sport鈥檚 finest showmen with 15 of his wins coming by knockout. The fight will be the promotion鈥檚 first ever title bout held on Irish soil, with the winner taking home the coveted Bellator lightweight belt.
