Patricio “Pitbull” Freire nabbed top billing for Bellator 145’s double-championship tentpole event, and he already made sure fellow Bellator champ Will Brooks heard about it.
Freire is slated to defend his featherweight strap in a trilogy fight against Daniel Straus in Bellator 145’s headlining fight, while Brooks will look to do the same against Marcin Held in the evening’s lightweight co-main event.
On Friday, some innocuous trash talk between the two Bellator champions quickly devolved into a lengthy and heated back-and-forth, with Brooks vowing to slap Freire in his “f**king mouth” when the two see each other on Nov. 6 in St. Louis. The entire exchange can be seen below.
Hey @illwillbrooks86 guess who’s headlining the next tent pole event and who’s in the undercard

@PatricioPitbull I knew you would start this stuff, you’re so small minded, and predictable
— Will Brooks (@illwillbrooks86) August 14, 2015

— Will Brooks (@illwillbrooks86) August 14, 2015

@illwillbrooks86 is that all you’ve got? I’m disappointed. You run your mouth all day long and can’t deal with being on the other side.
— Patricio Freire (@PatricioPitbull) August 14, 2015
@illwillbrooks86 poor you, so pitiful. Humility is just for those who are humble. You’re an arrogant-childish- coward prick.
— Patricio Freire (@PatricioPitbull) August 14, 2015

Damn you’re some type of stupid… Talk about being humble but brag about being the main–event https://t.co/8vGA1LXMmY
— Will Brooks (@illwillbrooks86) August 14, 2015
.@illwillbrooks86 guess you don’t know how to read. Humility is reserved to those who’re humble. For a prick like you this is the treatment
— Patricio Freire (@PatricioPitbull) August 14, 2015

— Will Brooks (@illwillbrooks86) August 14, 2015
