Bellator 121: Thompson-Prindle, Sokoudjou-Davinney Booked

By FCF Staff

Not long after Bellator confirmed that it has signed UFC and PRIDE vet Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou to a new contract, the promotion has announced the light-heavyweight’s next fight.

Sokoudjou will take on Terry Davinney at Bellator 121, which will go down June 6th in Thackerville, Oklahoma.

In addition, the promotion has announced that it has signed heavyweight James Thompson, and that the PRIDE vet will battle Eric Prindle at the June 6th card.

“I’m back!” Thompson relayed in a press release from the promotion. “I’ve been training harder than ever to get back to the big show, and I’m finally here. I’m going to smash Prindle on June 6th, make my way into a tournament, and get that belt. No questions asked. Bellator needs some new blood, and trust me, there will be blood.”
