Check out Noad Lahat’s highlight reel before his main event at Bellator 188


Filed under: Bellator, News, Videos

It took an injury to featherweight champion Patricio Freire to elevate Noad Lahat to Thursday’s Bellator 188 main event.

But now Lahat has an opportunity to make the most of his first Bellator headliner – and in front of a friendly crowd. Lahat (11-3 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) takes on Jeremiah Labiano (11-5 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) in Bellator 188’s main event in Israel, where he was born.

Bellator 188 takes place Thursday at Menora Mivtachim Arena in Tel Aviv, Israel. It airs Friday via tape-delay on Spike.

Lahat is as much as a 5-1 favorite over Labiano in his quest to move to 3-1 under the Bellator banner. His debut for the promotion came a year ago at Bellator 164 – also in Israel – when he submitted Scott Cleve with a first-round rear-naked choke.

This week, Lahat, who trains at American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Calif., will be trying to get back on track after a decision loss to Henry Corrales at Bellator 182 in August.

Before he steps in the cage looking for his third win in four fights, and in his first main event for a major promotion, check out some of Lahat’s highlights courtesy of Bellator in the video above.

Anthony Smith on Alex Pereira: ‘Given the opportunity, we both would jump on it’
