When Omar Hussein found out that Logan Storley needed an opponent, he jumped right at the opportunity. Hussein (8-2 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) will make his promotional debut when he steps in to face Storley at Bellator 258, which takes place May 7 at Mohegan Sun Arena. The main card airs on Showtime after prelims on MMA Junkie. Born in Hebron, Palestine, Hussein has bounced around numerous high-level gyms throughout his MMA career. He spent a significant amount of time training at Team Alpha Male, where he competed for various different organizations in California, before signing with Middle East-based UAE Warriors. He’s won four of his past five, which led to the short-notice Bellator opportunity, and Hussein can’t wait to represent his country on the big stage.
