Here is how you can stream the upcoming Bellator 279: Cris Cyborg vs Arlene Blencowe 2 live without having to use Reddit streams, Buffstreams or Crackstreams
Bellator returns to action this Friday with a fresh card at Bellator 278, and an immediate event following the card at Bellator 279 on Saturday. The events are set to take place at Neal S. Blaisdell Arena in Honolulu, Hawaii. The main event features a rematch between Cris Cyborg and Arlene Blencowe, after their previous clash at Bellator 249, a bout that Cyborg won via submission in the second round. One of the most feared and decorated women’s fighter of all time, Cyborg has won multiple championships in various promotions.
She won the vacant UFC featherweight championship and defended it twice before eventually losing it to current champion Amanda Nunes. She made her Bellator debut at 238 against Julia Budd and won the fight by TKO. She is undefeated in the promotion with 4 straight victories, all by finishes. Her opponent Arlene has been on a resurgence after the loss to the Brazilian. She has won two straight fights and will be looking forward to making a statement by upsetting the world if she defeats Cyborg.
In the co-main event Juan Archuleta and Raufeon Stots will clash for the interim Bellator bantamweight title. An NCAA division two wrestler and two time gold medalist, Stots made his Bellator debut in Hawaii at 236, and won the fight by decision. He has an impressive career record of 17 wins and 1 loss, with five straight victories in Bellator.
Originally slated to fight Sergio Pettis for the undisputed championship, Stots had to settle for an interim opportunity after Pettis was injured. His opponent Juan won the vacant Bellator bantamweight championship against Patchy Mix at 246. He lost his title to Sergio Pettis at Bellator 258 via decision. The card also features the debut of former UFC fighter Yancy Madeiros, a Hawaiian fan favorite who is set to make Bellator his new home.
