How Have Bellator Champions Fared in the UFC
In the co-main event of UFC 257,
Michael Chandler will make his long-awaited UFC debut against top contender Dan ‘The Hangman’ Hooker!
Chandler has become the 8th Bellator champion to sign with the UFC and fans are excited to see if he can swim with the sharks that make up the organization’s stacked 155-pound weight class. Chandler’s debut will mark the first time since 2011 that he’s been the betting underdog. Although respected by his peers and the MMA community, there is a sense of doubt about the strength of his competition in Bellator. And when looking back on past champions who made the walk before him we can see the results have been mixed.

As we look back on 2020, it was difficult to narrow down the best of each category, not because of a lack of bouts, but because so many fighters delivered such strong performances despite the chips stacked against them.
