The former UFC light heavyweight champion takes on current Bellator heavyweight title holder Ryan Bader in a rematch at this Friday’s Bellator 256 event. Machida (26-10 MMA, 2-2 BMMA) fought Bader (27-6 MMA, 5-1 BMMA) back in 2012 at UFC on FOX 4. Machida won the bout via second-round knockout, handing Bader his third professional defeat
