The voice of PRIDE, “Crazy Pride Lady” Lenne Hardt, is the new addition to the first Bellator: Dynamite event.
The promotion announced on Thursday that Hardt, the ring announcer for several MMA promotions around the world for over a decade, most notably PRIDE Fighting Championship in Japan, will make her debut on Sept. 19, when Bellator and Glory feature a 20-fight card in San Jose, Calif.
In the main event, Bellator light heavyweight champion Liam McGeary put his title on the line against former UFC champion Tito Ortiz, while Phil Davis, Emanuel Newton,
Linton Vassell and Muhammed Lawal battle in a one-night tournament for a shot at the 205-pound title.
The MMA portion of the card will also feature Josh Thomson’s Bellator debut, facing Mike Bronzoulis, while welterweight standout Paul Daley competes under Glory rules against Fernando Gonzalez.
