Looks like Rafael Lovato Jr is ready to take his career to the next level – he will be heading for Bellator MMA.
Reportedly Lovato Jr is to take on an opponent yet to be named in the March 3rd edition of Bellator.
The event in question will be headlined by Women’s Featherweight title fight featuring Marloes Coenen and Julia Honeycutt.
In the past Lovato has been very successful at Legacy FC racking up a record of 4-0.

Words can’t describe what it means to me to be at this stage of my #MartialArts journey. To be able to learn & train with these masters of the art of combat is something I cherish very much. Thank you Mestre @andredida & Mestre @wandfc for all of your knowledge that you share with us!
adding later:
As you all have been able to see by my posts lately, I am currently training for a MMA fight. I haven’t officially announced it yet, because the promotion has been working hard the last couple of weeks on securing an opponent for me & nothing has been made official. Well, everything is coming together now & my opponent will be secured this evening so I can go ahead & tell you where I will be fighting. On March 3rd, in my home state of #Oklahoma, I will be making my @bellatormma debut at #Bellator174!!! I will be fighting with my new student @thebigpygmy & my bro @kendallgrovemma that same night! I am very excited for this opportunity & am ready to put on a great performance! Tomorrow I will post more details. Thank you all for your support!
