Bellator 54 Gets Two Additional Fights

Bellator officials have added two new fights to the Bellator 54 roster set for October 15.
The two new bouts give the show currently nine fights with a few more additions likely to take place before the card is full.
Jacob Kirwan vs. Rene Nazare and Brian Kellehere vs. Claudio Ledesma are now official for the evening’s preliminary portion of the card.
Bellator 54 is set to take place from the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J. on October 15 and will feature the season-five middleweight tournament semifinals as well as a non title affair between bantamweight champ, Sach Makovsky and Ryan Roberts.
