Rafael Lovato Jr. is set to face Chris Honeycutt at Bellator 189

 

 

Much like Mackenzie Dern, Rafael Lovato Jr has also moved on to bigger things after Legacy Fighting Championship. After a successful debut at Bellator he’s booked his 2nd fight – against Chris Honeycutt.

At 34 years of age, Lovato Jr. steps into the cage for the seventh time in his four-year career.

n his six wins, we’ve seen Lovato Jr’s skills transition well. He has four submission victories on his resume including a mix of the armbar, rear -naked chokes and the arm-triangle choke. Lovato Jr’s striking has also improved, as seen by his 13-second demolishing of Charles Hackmann via kick, knees and punches at Bellator 174.

Lovato will b stepping into the cage once again December 1st.

 

 

Honeycutt is a substantially harder opponent as his record is 10-1 with only loss coming from January 2016 tko loss from Paul Bradley.
