With Bellator Season Five Middleweight Tournament fighters Alexander ‘Storm’ Shlemenko (42-7) and Vitor Vianna (12-1-1) finishing their opponents in spectacular fashion Saturday night in New Jersey, both are set to meet in the tournament final at Bellator 58.
Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney made the announcement last night, Oct. 15th, after the Bellator 58 event in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Shlemenko earned a second round TKO victory against Brian Rogers, while Vianna stopped Bryan Baker at 54-seconds of the first round by TKO also.
With the addition of this bout, Bellator 58 is shaping up to be a fantastic card for fans of the Chicago based promotion.
