Former King of the Cage heavyweight champ Tony Johnson Jr. is Bellator Fighting Championships’ latest acquisition.
The former Iowa State wrestler and four-time NCAA Division I
All-American makes his debut for the promotion at Bellator 41 against an
opponent yet to be named.
“Tony is a fighter we have had our eye on for quite some time,” Bellator
chairman and CEO Bjorn Rebney stated in today’s release. “He’s one of
the top heavyweight prospects in the world right now, and will make a
great addition to our already impressive heavyweight lineup.”
