The two winningest fighters in Bellator history face off in the main event of Saturday’s Bellator 221. In that contest, lightweight champion Michael Chandler puts his title on the line against featherweight titleholder Patricio Freire . This is not just a champion vs. champion fight.

The most recent of those fights was at Bellator 157, where Chandler scored a first-round knockout victory to claim the vacant lightweight title.
